Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20260515-8678B-2147319292. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Product: thermador PRI36LBHU (Liberty Induction Professional Range 36 Pro Harmony Standard Depth Stainless Steel). Incident: Product: Thermador Liberty Induction Professional Range Model: PRI36LBHU FD Number: FD0409 Z-Nr: 00077 Incident Description: During normal household use, the control panel area of my Thermador Liberty induction range overheated, melted, and emitted smoke/fire from the front control/interface section without warning. The event appeared to originate from the control electronics/touch-control area rather than cookware ignition. The appliance was installed professionally and used according to manufacturer instructions. There had been no prior damage, modification, misuse, or known electrical problems before the incident. The control panel material visibly melted, creating a potential fire hazard inside the home. Power was shut off at the breaker immediately after the event. The appliance is no longer being used. This incident raises concern about a possible electrical or thermal failure involving the induction/control electronics assembly. Given the risk of fire propagation and property damage, I believe this product presents a significant safety hazard. Additional Information: Unit manufacture code: FD0409 Event occurred during ordinary cooking use No external combustible material caused the failure Burn/melt damage localized around the control interface area Photos of the damage are available Hazards: Fire hazard Electrical hazard Risk of smoke inhalation/property damage Potential risk of injury if event occurred unattended
