SINGAPORE: Nokia has initiated a charger exchange programme in Singapore after it identified a potential product quality issue with certain chargers manufactured by one of its third-party suppliers.

The plastic covers of the affected chargers could come loose and separate, exposing the charger's internal components, potentially posing an electrical shock hazard.

Nokia said it is not aware of any incidents or injuries related to these chargers.

It said only a limited number of chargers are affected. They are the AC-3E and AC-3U models manufactured between June 15 and August 9 this year; and the AC-4U model manufactured between April 13 and October 25 this year. They are two-pin chargers.

The handphone manufacturer has also set up a website -
http://chargerexchange.nokia.com - which contains more information on the exchange programme.

Consumers will be able to exchange the affected chargers at the Nokia Care Centres.

Nokia recommends consumers with chargers within the scope of this exchange programme to stop using the device and get a free replacement.
