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, and the hazard is a visual display issue (tilted image) without reported injuries or illnesses, fitting the criteria for a moderate severity recall involving a risk-of-harm product where injury has not yet been reported.
