CPSC, Zenith Announce Recall to Repair Large-Screen, Analog Projection Televisions
Product Description
The projection televisions recalled in this expansion and the earlier program have 46-60 inch screens and were manufactured from April 1995 through July 1997, and August 1998 through November 1998. The date of manufacture can be found on the white label on the back of the set. These televisions were manufactured in Mexico. Projection televisions manufactured after 1998 are not included in this recall.
Reason for Recall
A tear in a gasket can cause coolant fluid to leak from the picture tube assembly. This can cause smoking, charring, and electrical arcing inside of the television, posing a fire hazard to consumers.
Remedy
Consumers who have one of these televisions should immediately contact Zenith to arrange for a free inspection and repair.
