********************************************************
The Electrical and Mechanical Services Department today (December 13) urged the public to suspend use of two models of Bosch dishwasher and to contact the supplier, BSH Home Appliances Limited, for free repair services. The two models are:
1) Model number: SGI4332/01 (Batch number: 8003 to 8508)
2) Model number: SGS4332/17 (Batch number: 8001 to 8508)
The supplier found that an electrical component of the dishwashers may overheat and cause fire.
The dishwashers were sold in Hong Kong between 1999 and 2005. The supplier will offer a free repair service to affected customers and will post notices announcing the free repair service in newspapers today and tomorrow (December 14).
For enquiries, please call the company's customer service hotline at 2103 7700 between 9am and 1pm and between 2pm and 6pm from Mondays to Saturdays.
