Reported risk: Siemens is informing customers about an upcoming update to their Symbia Systems whereby the supplier inadvertently used a 10a fuse instead of the 4a fuse specified in the product design. This improper amperage rating was installed on Symbia Systems with manufacturing dates prior to July 1, 2014. These fuses, in conjunction with a specific failure mode of the power controller assembly, could lead to the overheating of the assembly.
