Intermatic Model ST01 and EI600 In-wall Electronic Timers
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Intermatic is recalling certain in-wall electronic timers because a metal object inserted through the battery tray slot during battery replacement can contact internal metal components and cause electrical shock. The affected models are ST01, ST01C, ST01AC, ST01AC70, ST01C70, ST01CL, EI600C, EI600LAC, EI600LAC8, EI600WC, and EI600WC8. The timers are white, off-white, or almond colored wall-mounted devices measuring 2 1/2 inches high by 1 3/4 inches wide. A timer is included in the recall if it has "Intermatic" molded on the front cover door, has only four keypad buttons, and lacks a 3-digit date code stamped inside the cover door; timers with a 3-digit date code are not affected.
Consumers who believe they have a recalled timer should not attempt to change the battery. Instead, they should contact Intermatic to receive a free repair kit that includes installation instructions.
