The ranges have smooth tops and are freestanding electric stoves.

You have to either contact Electrolux or register your range online to see if it has been recalled. The company will use the serial number to determine if it can be repaired.

If it can be fixed, the company will schedule a free inspection and repair. If it cannot be fixed, customers will get a $50 e-gift card refund and reimbursement for up to $60 to have the range hauled away once they submit proof of purchase of a new range and proof that a haul-away fee was paid, the CPSC reported.

If you own one of the recalled ranges, do not put anything on the top when it is not in use.

The ranges were sold at Sears and independent appliance stores from June 2001 through August 2009 for between $1,000 and $2,500.

For more information, contact Electrolux Group at 888-845-8226 from 8:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. ET, Monday through Friday via email or online.
