MPL, multi-purpose utility lighter
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Zippo is recalling certain Multi-Purpose Lighters (MPL) that use refillable butane fuel due to a fire hazard. The lighters may spill fuel from the nozzle when first used, which could ignite through a secondary source of ignition. The recalled lighters are 8 inches long and 1 inch wide, finished in either black or silver metal with a chrome nozzle. Black lighters come in blister packs with black and red graphics, while silver lighters come in silver gift boxes. Only lighters with date codes G03, H03, I03, or ZH03 (found on the black adjuster knob on the bottom) are affected.
To receive a replacement, consumers with recalled lighters should send the black adjuster knob from the bottom of their lighter to Zippo and will receive a free replacement multi-purpose lighter in return.
