Reason for Recall
The possibility exists for the wireless foot switch to fail due to impacts by external factors, such as electrostatic discharge that exceed a certain intensity. If the foot switch fails, it will no longer be able to be used to release radiation. The hand switch provided can be used to release exposures; however, fluoroscopic examinations will not be possible.
