  • Causa
    The ambient light module is a set of three leds that are intended for an easy viewing of and around operating fields. in some product models, this module is attached to the cupola through a set of 4 fixing tabs, which compose the plastic enclosure of the ambient light module. there is a potential risk of failure concerning the fixation of the module. it has been observed by some of our customers that one or several fixing tabs were broken, which led the ambient light module to detach, remaining attached by its wires only. the occurrence rate observed is lower than 1% and is mainly seen in the early use of the devices.
