If You have any of these, you need to contact the manufacturer for a necessary repair. What should you do? First, check with your manufacturer whether your appliance is affected using the model number and serial number. Then, contact them directly to arrange a free-of-charge repair.
You should not use the appliance until the repair has been completed. If the plug is accessible, switch it off and unplug your tumble dryer from the socket.
Even appliances that were modified in the first wave (before 1 August 2025) are at risk, so these are included in the above guidance.
