Hamilton Beach recalls 22600 toasters with series codes starting C or D (CXXXXBI/DXXXXBI) due to fire risk from energized heating elements near flammable items. Get a free replacement.
The heating element in these toasters can remain energized indefinitely when an item is placed in the toaster which may ignite the contents, posing a fire hazard if the toaster is near flammable items.
Hamilton Beach is recalling 2-slice toasters with specific series codes because their heating elements can stay energized after use, potentially igniting flammable materials if the toaster is near them. This could cause a fire if the toaster is placed close to combustible items.
The heating element can stay energized even after the toaster is no longer in use. If flammable items are nearby, this energized element could ignite them, causing a fire.
Owners of Hamilton Beach 22600 toasters with series codes starting with C or D (CXXXXBI or DXXXXBI) are affected. Anyone using these toasters near flammable materials is at higher risk.
Check the bottom of the toaster for a series code starting with C or D, followed by four digits and ending with BI (e.g., C1234BI). The model number is printed on the bottom of the toaster.
Immediately stop using the recalled toasters as they pose a fire hazard.
