CPSC, Jøtul North America Announce Recall to Repair Liquid Propane Fueled Stoves

Hazard

Movement or misplacement of the stove's burner can allow propane gas to settle in the heater, resulting in delayed ignition. The delayed ignition could shatter the door glass and pose a laceration hazard to consumers.
