GETINGE recalls Maquet flat screen monitor holders with specific part numbers due to potential electric shock risk from improper grounding. Affected units may cause mild to fatal shocks when used with 100-220V power.
The affected flat screen monitor holders might not be compliant with grounding requirements. As a consequence, there is a risk of mild to severe/fatal electric shock under certain conditions while using the flat screen monitor holder with voltage of 100-220V.
GETINGE is recalling Maquet flat screen monitor holders that might not meet grounding safety standards. This could lead to electric shock ranging from mild to fatal if used with standard household voltage.
