The affected adapters have been sold in the UK and Ireland since September 2015. If you think you have one sitting in your home, Amazon recommends using the bundled USB cable with another compatible adapter until you can acquire a replacement. The company will swap the faulty version free of charge, or offer to put an extra £12 into your Amazon account so that you can buy a third-party model. It's your choice.

The company stresses that power adapters shipped with its other tablets, such as the Fire HD and Fire HDX, aren't affected. Furthermore, any hardware sold outside the UK should have a different adapter in the box.
