A barbecue sourced by Bunnings Group Limited and sold exclusively at Bunnings Warehouse stores nationally, has also been recalled because of a fault that could cause its knobs to become extremely hot and burn fingers.
The barbecue model which was sold between June 1 and October 19 this year is BG1507B6 and the batch numbers, labelled on the side of the unit are 1516, 1518, 1522, 1525 and 1529.
In isolated cases, the burners may not align correctly with the gas delivery jets. Upon ignition, the gas within the barbecue burner is likely to light at the jet rather than only at the burner ports.
This means that the flame at the jet may cause its corresponding plastic control knob on the outside fascia of the barbecue to get very hot. This could result in burns to the fingers upon contact with the knob.
Customers who have purchased the barbecue should stop using it and return the item to the nearest Bunnings store for a full refund. For further information, customers can call the customer service center 1300 667 146 (AUS) or email help@solutionservices.net.au
