Official wording

Reason: There exists a potential situation with the crimp connection at the pump head assembly. The potential exists that the reverse osmosis pump head wiring could build resistance resulting in resistive heating of the surrounding components. If this occurs, the pump head assembly may experience melting of the plastic components and potentially create smoke/fire and shut down of the unit.
