Householders across Dublin have once again been warned to be wary of leaving appliances on when in bed or gone out.
The warning comes from Dublin Fire Brigade after a kitchen fire which appears to have originated in a dishwasher.
It's not the first time DFB have issued a warning about dishwasher fires - back in April, they also responded to a blaze that originated in a similar fashion.
They have also reminded people to ensure they have a working smoke or heat alarm in their home that will alert them in the event of a fire.
Dublin Fire Brigade said: "Firefighters from Swords and Kilbarrack fought a kitchen fire yesterday which appears to have originated in a dishwasher.
"Faults can occur so it is wise not to use the dishwasher when you go out or go to bed. A working smoke or heat alarm will alert you in the event of a fire."
