Thermador Ceramic Cooktops Recalled

June 7, 2007
Thermador Ceramic Cooktops are being recalled because of a fire hazard.

The cooktop can come on by itself when switched off, creating a potential fire hazard if flammable items are left on the cooktop.

The cooktop has electric and induction heating elements with a black ceramic glass surface. This recall involves model numbers CIT302DS/01 and CIT362DS/01 with date codes between 8606 and 8612. The model number and date code can be found on the underside of the cooktop.

The cooktops were sold at appliance and specialty stores nationwide from October 2006 through March 2007 for between $1,800 and $2,200.

Consumers should disconnect the cooktop at the circuit breaker when not in use, and never leave anything on the cooktop when it is unattended. Contact BSH Home Appliances for a free in-home repair.
