Reason for recall

During a label review it was discovered that both the Blanketrol III Operations (57201-N) & Operations & Technical (56201-Q) manuals had verbiage added back into the manual during ECN M111-4260 (released 12/29/2011) which was previously removed for clarification of the intended use and subsequent 501(K) approval.

Foods that need refrigeration and were stored or shipped too warm can grow harmful bacteria without any change in look or smell.
