Reason for recall
There is a risk that the Diode D1 in the Modulator can fail in a destructive manner when removed from the machine, and that the protective tube surrounding the diode may fail to contain the ejected matter.
Device recalls are issued when a component, software or design fault could cause the device to fail or give wrong readings. Many are corrections applied in the field rather than physical returns.
