If the mu'adhdhin forgets and adds to the takbir, should the people follow him?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Shaykh, a questioner says: If the mu'adhdhin says the takbir three times at the beginning of his adhan by mistake, is the one who hears him required to follow this mu'adhdhin in the rest of the adhan?

Answer:
Yes, he follows him in what is prescribed, but he does not follow him in the extra. And if the mu'adhdhin forgets or makes a mistake, he is not held accountable for it. Yes.
