Manufacturer Reason
for Recall		Failure to effectively sterilize: Under certain conditions, the design/operation of the C1160 Tray may compromise the ability of the SYSTEM 1 processor to correctly assess the state of the high pressure pump during the Sterile Cycle. The L6 sensor fails to alarm when the high pressure pump is not working properly.
