Electronics Safety Recommendations
Register Your Products
Always register electronics products with the manufacturer after purchase. Product registration ensures you receive direct recall notifications and can access remedies quickly if a safety issue is discovered.
Check Before You Buy
Before purchasing electronics products, especially used items, check the CPSC and other relevant agencies for active recalls. This is particularly important for second-hand purchases where the original owner may not have addressed a recall.
Follow Usage Instructions
Use electronics products only as intended by the manufacturer. Many safety incidents occur when products are misused or modified. Read and follow all safety warnings, instructions, and age recommendations.
Report Safety Concerns
If you experience a safety issue with a electronics product, report it to the appropriate government agency. Your report could help identify a pattern that leads to a recall, protecting other consumers from potential harm.
