What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: Class II medical device with potential electrical hazards from improper voltage conversion using non-supplied components. This represents a risk-of-harm scenario where the hazard is theoretical rather than realized based on the source document.
