The actual sample was returned for evaluation.Visual inspection revealed that the water port out was deformed.Reproductive testing was performed on test samples.The water port was exposed to hot air until it became melted and deformed.The configuration of the deformation was confirmed to be different from that observed on the actual sample.The water port was exposed to a pressure until it became deformed.The configuration of the deformation was confirmed to be similar to that observed on the actual sample.Ifu states: if the product is dropped during set-up, do not use it.Replace with another device.There is no evidence that this event was related to a device defect or malfunction.Based on the investigation results, it is likely that the water port out, of the actual sample was exposed to some external force.However, the exact cause of the reported event cannot be definitively determined based on the available information.
