Yamaha AC power adaptors withdrawn for shock hazard

Yamaha is recalling about 49,000 AC power adaptors because they pose an electric shock danger to users, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission said Thursday.
The company has learned of five incidents in which the casing on the adaptor separated. No associated injuries were reported.
The recall applies to Yamaha PA-3C adapters used to power Yamaha keyboards and digital drum sets. Only adapters marked with the date code 0624 are affected by the recall.
The products were sold in U.S. music stores from July 2006 through September 2007 for about $20 US.
Consumers with the affected adaptors should stop using them and contact the company for a free replacement.
