Product Safety Warning Details
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is warning consumers to stop using 4 in 1 Plug in Natural Gas and Carbon Monoxide Detectors Model KH158 immediately because the detectors can fail to alert consumers to the presence of hazardous carbon monoxide.
The manufacturer, Shenzhen Kanghua Shengshi Industrial Co., LTD dba KH Alert of China, has not agreed to recall these detectors.
CPSC urges consumers not to purchase or sell these carbon monoxide detectors. Stop using and dispose of these products immediately, and install new, working carbon monoxide detectors. Report a dangerous product or a product-related injury on www.SaferProducts.gov.
Note: Consumers should install carbon monoxide detectors on each level of their home and outside separate sleeping areas. Carbon monoxide detectors should be battery operated or have battery backup. Test carbon monoxide detectors frequently and replace batteries as needed. Consumers should only buy carbon monoxide detectors that meet the UL 2034 safety standard.
The subject products are electronic combination natural gas and carbon monoxide (CO) detectors. The detectors are made of white, gray, or black plastic and feature a digital display. There is a button with the words “SELF-TEST” on the front of the detectors. To the left of the “SELF-TEST” button are three indicator lights, one green with “POWER” printed below, one yellow with “FAULT” printed below, and one red with “ALARM” printed below.
Report any incidents involving injury or product defect to CPSC at www.SaferProducts.gov.
