Reason/Issue Getinge has identified an issue causing failure of the control keypad resulting in the cupola not turning on or off. A review of complaint data has demonstrated that this issue has occurs in 3 different keypad versions.
This potential for malfunction is caused by an internal frequency issue of a component on keypads version 1, and by the touch-sensitive technology that was not sensitive enough on versions 2 and 3. The keypads at fault are no longer produced. Getinge have implemented a more robust keypad using a different technology.
This action is to replace the potentially defective keypads with the new keypad.
To date, no injuries as a result of this issue have been reported.
Recall Action Product Defect Correction
