The label includes the model and serial number. The following model names and serial numbers are included in the recall: Model Name Serial Number DE-03, DE-04, DE-05 and DE-06 5040768 to 5052860 PSCII-03, PSCII-04, PSCII-05, and PSCII-06 5040777 to 5052166 Other suffix designation may follow the base model number, such as SV-WPC.

Reason for Recall
