Reason for recall
Invacare Corporation decided to recall the product because of a potential risk of fire and serious injury. The post fuse assemblies could potentially have a short between the positive ring terminal and the terminal battery bracket which would create an alternate current path around the fuse.
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.
