What this means for you
Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, which is typically associated with a temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequence. The source text does not report any injuries, illnesses, or deaths, and the hazard is related to manufacturing calibration data rather than a confirmed structural failure or contamination.
