Yamaha Corporation of America is recalling approximately 37,400 PA-300C AC power adaptors used with Yamaha arranger workstations, digital pianos, music control panels, and Steinberg audio interfaces. These black adaptors can overheat and catch fire, posing a risk of burns and fire to users. The firm has received four reports of the adaptors smoking or burning, though no injuries have been reported. The affected units were manufactured between July 2010 and May 2012 and were either sold separately as service parts or built into specific Yamaha Clavinova digital pianos.
The AC power adaptors can overheat and ignite during use. This poses a significant fire and burn hazard to consumers and their property. Four incidents of smoking or burning have already been reported.
Consumers should immediately stop using and unplug the recalled PA-300C AC Power Adaptor and contact Yamaha Corporation of America for a free replacement adaptor. Visit www.yamaha.com/us/support/pa300crecall/ for instructions to participate in the recall. Consumers will need to submit their information through an online form or by email, and will need to submit evidence of product destruction with their claim. Consumers should not damage their recalled adaptor until they have read the recall instructions online. Consumers who own a Yamaha-brand Clavinova® digital piano with a recalled adaptor should unplug the piano and contact Yamaha. Yamaha will provide piano technician services to perform an on-site inspection of the piano and provide a free replacement adaptor.
