Recalled product: Ceiling Fans Recalled by Westinghouse Lighting Due to Shock and Fire Hazards

The hazard

The two 60-watt light bulbs included with the ceiling fans exceed the fan's maximum wattage, which can cause the ceiling fans to overheat or fail. This poses fire and shock hazards to consumers.

What to do

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled ceiling fans and contact Westinghouse Lighting for two free replacement 40-watt light bulbs.
