IKEA urges customers who have a PATRULL nightlight to immediately stop using it and bring it back to an IKEA store for a full refund.
Note: Examples show an EU plug but the construction and risk is the same regardless of PATRULL nightlight plug type.
IKEA has received one report where a child played with the PATRULL nightlight. He tried to remove the light from the socket when the lid came off. The child got an electric shock and had visible wounds on his hand.
Whenever an IKEA product is involved in an incident we take immediate action. The product was removed from sale the same day as the report came in and an investigation started. More than 600 PATRULL nightlights have since been tested and they were all OK. In spite of this IKEA has decided to recall the lamp to avoid the risk of any further incidents.
PATRULL nightlight has been sold in Europe and North America since 2013.
Proof of purchase (receipt) is not required for a full refund. For more information, please contact Customer Services on 0203 645 0010.
IKEA apologises for any inconvenience this may cause.
