Hazard

Firm initiated recall because when radiographic conditions with the small focus are set and the radiography ready switch is held down, the large focus is also heated after a few seconds or more. This occurs when the Automatic Exposure Function (AEC) function is used. As a result, a radiographic tube current exceeding the set value flows and a brighter image than expected is acquired.
