Speed Queen will supply all consumers with a permanent guard to install at the base of the Contempo Mate washer-dryer, which are equipped with caster-rollers.

Announce Hair Dryer Recall WASHINGTON, D.C. - In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Division Sales Inc. of Itasca, Ill., is recalling about 8,000 hand-held hair dryers. Since these hair dryers do not have a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) plug, they present a risk of electrocution if dropped in water while the dryer is plugged in and in either the \"on\" or \"off\" position. The current voluntary industry standard, which has been in effect since January 1, 1991, requires hand-held hair dryers to provide full immersion protection when in either the \"on\" or \"off\" position. Before the use of immersion protection devices, there were an estimated average of 18 electrocutions involving hand-held hair dryers each year. Since the introduction of immersion protection devices for hand-held hair dryers, the estimated average has decreased to two electrocutions a year. CPSC and Division Sales Inc. are not aware of any injuries involving these hair dryers. This recall is being conducted to prevent the possibility of injury. The hair dryer is made of white plastic and has the words \"PROFESSIONAL STYLER...ASBESTOS FREE...HD-20...MADE IN CHINA\" printed on it. The hair dryer has an ordinary plug rather than a GFCI plug to prevent electric shocks. The hair dryer is packaged in triangle-shaped cardboard box labeled in part, \"Professional HAIR~DRYER HD-20.\" There is a picture of the hair dryer on the box. Independent discount and variety stores nationwide sold the hair dryers from December 1994 through February 1997 for about $11. Consumers should stop using the recalled hair dryers immediately and return them to the store where purchased for a full refund. For more information, consumers can call Division Sales Inc. at (800) 621-8134. When buying a hair dryer, consumers should look for a large, rectangular-shaped plug at the end of the cord indicating the presence of a GFCI. The certification mark of a recognized testing laboratory should also be visible on the hair dryer or on the hair dryer's packaging. However, even with this improved protection, under no circumstances should consumers use a hair dryer where it could come in contact with water.

According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), the hair dryer does not protect consumers against the possibility of electrocution should the product fall into a water-filled sink or bathtub while the switch is in the \"off\" position. CPSC estimates that 17 people -- 10 of whom are children under 10 years of age -- are electrocuted each year in similar accidents involving hand-held hair dryers. The agency said the recall is part of its continuing effort to reduce risk of electrocution and injury with electrical products around the home. Arrow Trading Company said \"Elegance\" model E1203 hair dryers were sold nationwide through a variety of retailers. Consumers should return the hair dryer to the place of purchase for a full refund. CPSC Chairman Jacqueline Jones-Smith said, \"CPSC investigations have shown that children often use these appliances as devices for bath-time play. Children left unattended in the bathtub can bring a hair dryer into the tub, resulting in electrocution. While any child's death is tragic, these electrocutions are particularly devastating because they are preventable.\" CPSC urged consumers to have ground-fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs) installed in bathroom and kitchen circuits to reduce chances of electrocution.

The commission also warned that some 80 million hair dryers sold before 1987, the effective date of the current voluntary safety standard, continue to pose a threat to consumers. \"We estimate that 17 Americans are electrocuted each year in accidents involving hand-held hair dryers,\" said Anne Graham, Acting CPSC Chairman. \"Ten of those yearly deaths involve children under 10 years old.

In spite of these warnings, electrocutions have continued. In 1987, the voluntary standard was revised to require protection against electrocution when hair dryers are immersed with switches in the \"off\" position. The recalled hair dryers do not meet this standard. Consumers should return them to the place of purchase for refund or replacement. In addition, CPSC warns, approximately 80 million hair dryers manufactured before 1987 do not provide immersion safeguards with the switch in either the \"off\" or \"on\" position. Acting Chairman Graham said, \"CPSC investigations have shown that children often use these appliances as devices for bath-time play. one scenario we have seen involves one or more children left unattended in a bathtub when a parent leaves momentarily.

(Nov. 1) -- The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has voted unanimously to accept the voluntary corrective action plans of 26 manufacturers and importers of hand-held hair dryers made with asbestos. The 26 companies account for nearly 10 per cent of those hand- held hair dryers manufactured with asbestos since 1969. The other 90 per cent were distributed by 11 manufacturers and private labelers whose corrective actions were approved by the Commission last May. Among the 26 manufacturers and private labelers, eight have agreed to repair their hair dryers: three have agreed to refund the purchase price or replace the dryers with asbestos-free dryers: and 15 have agreed to exchange their dryers for refunds, new asbestos- free dryers or other products manufactured or imported by the firm. Nearly 100 different models and styles of hair dryers are covered under these corrective action plans. Since May, 1979, CPSC has ordered 146 corporations to submit sworn information regarding the use of asbestos in their hair dryers. The 26 companies listed below informed CPSC that the heat shields in their dryers contained asbestos (but that no other dryer parts exposed to the dryers' airstream contained asbestos). None of the remaining 120 firms reported having manufactured hair dryers containing asbestos. The companies which have agreed to repair or accept returns of their hair dryers include: Afro Products, Inc., of Ottuma, Iowa; Allied Stores Marketing Corp., of New York City; Arrow Trading Co., New York City; B&E Sales Co., of Detroit, Michigan; Brother International Corp., of Piscataway, New Jersey; Formac, Inc., of City of Industry, California; Hartman Products of Hawthorne, California; W.P.

(Sept. 20) -- The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and the manufacturer of the \"Rocket Blower\", a commercial hair dryer used nationwide in beauty salons patronized primarily by blacks, today announced a voluntary program for the removal and replacement of asbestos heat shields in the hair dryers. The correction program has been accepted by the Commission as adequate. The manufacturer, Bonat Inc., of West Patterson, New Jersey, estimates that since 1972 approximately 1,000 of the special purpose hair dryers have been sold to distributors for resale to beauty salons. The company estimates that perhaps 500 individual beauty salons currently may be using the \"Rocket Blower\", predominantly in major urban areas. Bonat and CPSC will be instructing Bonat distributors and their beauty salon customers to return the dryers for retrofitting. Bonat has informed the Commission that it believes these hair dryers do not present a health hazard. Although Bonat therefore feels it is not legally obligated to undertake the correction program, it has agreed to do so voluntarily. Distributors and their beauty salon operators can identify the \"Rocket Blower\" by its name on the label, which reads \"Bonat Blower Dryer.\" The \"Rocket Blower\" models requiring removal of the asbestos heat shield are models B-10, B-11 and B-14. No other Bonat dryers have been manufactured with asbestos heat shields. The replacement program is scheduled to begin in mid-October when the company will have completed its retrofitting arrangements. Beauty salon operators are being advised to write the Bonat company at 250 Lackawanna Ave., West Patterson, New Jersey 07424, to receive details of the retrofit program. Salon operators also may contact CPSC at the agency's toll-free Hotline, 800/638-2772, to initiate participation in the

& Electric Dryers Manufactured by Lux Time Co. Warning NEWS from CPSC U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission Office of Information and Public Affairs Washington, DC 20207 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE February 15, 1974 Release # 74-008 CPSC Issues Warning Of Electric Shock Hazard In Gas And Electric Dryers WASHINGTON, D.C. (Feb.15)--The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission today warned consumers that approximately 3,000 gas and electric clothes dryers manufactured after November 8, 1973, and sold in the past four months may have potentially defective timers capable of causing fatal electric shock. Owners of the suspect units are urged to immediately unplug the dryer, being careful not to touch any metal surfaces. The model and serial number may be located by opening the door of the clothes dryer and looking at the upper lefthand corner of the door well. The timers were manufactured by Lux Time Company of Connecticut, a division of Robertshaw Controls Company, and were sold to the Franklin Manufacturing Company, Webster City, Iowa, which, in turn, sold them to the six dryer manufacturers. The Franklin Manufacturing Company, a subsidiary of White Consolidated of Cleveland, Ohio, reported the defect to the Commission February 12, and has directed its customers to halt delivery on the dryers. The firm has advised consumers who may have purchased any of the dryers in question to contact the dealer from whom it was purchased for inspection and, if necessary, replacement of the control at no cost to the customer. For further information, call the Consumer Product Safety Commission toll-free hot line (800) 638-2772. Customer Brand Name # Units Model # Serial #'s Kelvinator, Inc.
