Official wording

Reason: The firm became aware of a potential problem that was initiated by a customer complaint. After consultation with the manufacturer, it was discovered that a resistor was incorrectly placed within the circuit board on the monitor. This change to the resistor was a planned change to address a product improvement (improve battery drain). However, this modification rendered the monitor's alarm via the nurse call communication port to not function.
