Cambridge Audio Recalls YOYO Speakers Over Fire Risk: Urgent Consumer Action Required
  • Cambridge Audio is issuing a voluntary safety recall, urging safe handling of lithium-ion batteries and noting that disposal and transport require specialist handling; further instructions will follow once consumers register for the recall process.

  • The recall, coordinated by the Office for Product Safety and Standards (OPSS) and Cambridge Audio, covers all units across three colourways—Dark Grey, Light Grey, and Blue—regardless of purchase date or serial number, with colour-specific barcodes and references provided.

  • Consumers are told to stop using the speakers immediately, unplug from power, and avoid repairs, opening, or disposal in ordinary waste; instead, they should complete an assessment form on Cambridge Audio’s website to learn next steps based on location, with a UK focus in the reporting.

  • The recall specifically targets the Cambridge Audio YOYO (M) portable Bluetooth speaker range due to a serious fire risk from the internal lithium-ion battery, which can overheat and undergo thermal runaway, potentially causing smoke, fire, and ejected battery material.
