Manufacturer Narrative

This report is being supplemented to provide additional information based on the legal manufacturer's final investigation.A review of the device history record found no deviations that could have caused or contributed to the reported issue.It has been over 5 years since the subject device was manufactured.Based on the results of the investigation, and it is likely that the parts of the slide switch were worn out due to repeated use or accidentally broken down.If the corners of the slide switch parts become rounded, it is probable that the switch became difficult to push in when the scope was inserted, making it impossible to detect it.Olympus will continue to monitor the field performance of this device.
