Why it was recalled

During factory testing, we discovered that Gemini systems could, in rare circumstances, experience a fault that leads to a state in which X-rays are being produced but the X-ray indicator lights (located on the operator's console and on both ends of the tunnel) are not illuminated.

Class II means using this product may cause temporary or medically reversible health problems; the chance of serious harm is remote.
