FDA (Devices) recall action 84773
The FDA (Devices) publishes a recall like this one as 2 separate product records. They share a firm, a date and a cause; this page is all of them in one place, so the scale of the action is visible rather than spread across 2 pages.
When using the Table Up/Down button, the system may experience Error 80, which locks the geometry in that specific state, requiring the intervention of a service Engineer. Additionally, the thermos switch, which handles power down of the unit in case of transformer overheating, was installed incorrectly at production.
