Hazard identified

 

The units may overheat, emit smoke and damage the wall, posing a fire hazard to consumers.

 

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled thermostats and contact the retailer from whom they purchased the product as the importer is no longer in business.  Otherwise, consumers should remove and throw the thermostats away according to their local municipal disposal requirements.”
