Zippo Manufacturing Co. is recalling about 17,500 Zippo Slatkin & Co. Candle Lighters. The lighters can produce an excessive flame when adjusted to the maximum setting, posing a burn hazard.

The date code is embossed on the black adjuster knob located on the end of the lighter (opposite to the nozzle). "Slatkin & Co." and "Zippo" are printed on the packaging. "Zippo" is also embossed on the product.

The lighters were sold at Bath & Body Works and other retailers nationwide and online in November 2009 for about $10.
