Warning over faulty tumble dryers

People on the Isle of Man who've bought tumble dryers from Currys are being warned they could be unsafe.

The Office of Fair Trading is warning of issues with the Logik LVD7W15 which were manufactured between March and April 2016. 

The heating element in these machines can overheat which could cause fire. 

People who have the affected models are being urged not to use the dryers until they have been confirmed as not posing a risk - this includes unplugging them at the mains. 

The OFT says Currys will contact customers directly to arrange for a technician to check the heating elements.
