Manufacturer Reason
for Recall
A software issue may cause the liquid volume detection entries for 2nd and 3rd reagent bottles to be overwritten with the data from the 1st reagent bottle. Tosoh has released software version 2.51 (or later) to fix the problem. This failure is mitigated by the hardware design. The consequence would be a slight delay in testing patient sample or reporting patient result.

A field service engineer will be contacting customers with these units in their possession to schedule a service visit in order to upgrade those analyzers to the current version of the operating software.
