GE Carestation 30 anesthesia systems

Reason for recall

On systems equipped with the Auxiliary Common Gas Outlet (ACGO), there is a potential for the auxiliary gas switch to unexpectedly switch from the ACGO position back to the circle position. On systems equipped with the Aux O2 + Air function the switch could unexpectedly switch from the Aux O2 + Air position back to the circle position. These situations could lead to hypoxia.
