Hotpoint and Indesit freestanding gas cookers: gas leak and fire risk

O-rings in the lid shut-off valve can wear early and let gas leak; if it ignites it can cause a fire, burns and injuries.

What to do: Do not use an affected cooker; contact Hotpoint / Indesit (0800 316 3887) for an engineer visit to replace the part. If you smell gas, call the gas emergency line (0800 111 999 in Great Britain, 0800 002 001 in Northern Ireland).
