Why these products were recalled

If SID (source-to-image distance) lift movement is activated and x-ray shall be released simultaneously; x-ray is not possible and the message No x-ray, try again is displayed, may result in a short delay in procedure

The agency’s own wording, quoted from the enforcement report.

The unit total adds up the quantities the agency stated for each product. Where a product record gave no figure, or gave a weight rather than a count, it contributes nothing — so the real total is at least this, never less.
