What this means

These drives may perform differently and become less reliable over time, which could cause loss of imaging, a blank or black display, or trouble storing or viewing images. No injuries have been reported.

Contact your Philips service representative or the facility that operates this equipment for next steps.
Do not make changes to the device yourself; wait for Philips to confirm the fix.
