IKEA is recalling approximately 359,000 PATRULL nightlights because the protective plastic dome can detach from the base. This defect exposes internal electrical components, which can cause an electrical shock to anyone who touches them. IKEA has received one report of a child in Austria who suffered an electric shock and minor hand wounds when the cover detached as they were removing the light from an outlet. These lights were sold in white, orange, and pink at IKEA stores and online from August 2013 to July 2015. Consumers should stop using the lights and return them to IKEA for a full refund.
The dome-shaped colored cover can unexpectedly fall off or be pulled off, exposing live electrical parts. If a consumer, especially a child, touches these exposed components while the light is plugged in, they will receive an electrical shock.
Consumers should immediately stop using and unplug the recalled product and contact IKEA for a full refund.
