Reason/Issue For Artis systems used in conjunction with Artis table;-

In the event the tabletop is approximately fully extended at the head end and there is a large amount of liquid on the table surface, the liquid may make its way from the foot end of the tabletop onto the top cover of the table column where it can seep through a gap. This liquid may then cause interference with electronic components and table movements may no longer be possible.
Recall Action Recall for Product Correction
Recall Action Instructions The gap in the top of the table cover will be sealed to ensure protection against the entry of liquids.
