Name of product:
Personal Emergency Reporting System (PERS) Transmitters
Hazard:
The batteries used in the transmitters can
fail to emit a low battery warning leading the user to believe the
transmitter is functioning and not generate a warning.
The
recalled Linear PERS transmitters are components of Linear PERS or
personal emergency solutions products and allow users to push a button
on the transmitter to summon assistance. The transmitter may be worn as a
pendant on a lanyard around the user's neck, on a band around the
user's wrist or as a belt clip.
The recall includes model numbers DXS-62A (black wristband and a gray pendant), DXS-62A1 (ivory plastic belt clip pendant) and DXS-64 (gray plastic pendant with a green circle in the center) which all have batteries that are sealed into the products. The manufactured date range of the recalled products is from June 2008 through April 2011 written as a date code. For example the date code MD1105 represents YYMM format or a manufacture date of May 2011. The date code, model number, Linear LLC and other information are found on the back of the transmitter.
