Consumers who own ovens made by Belling, Stoves and New World are being urged to check whether their cooker requires a modification.
This is because certain models with gas grills pose a serious carbon monoxide poisoning risk if used incorrectly. The gas range cookers have been found to have a seal fault on the grill element, which can lead to dangerous levels of carbon monoxide being produced, potentially causing injury and death.
