Action
The firm contacted their customers and their distributors customers via letters dated June 8, 2004 through July 9, 2004. The letters instruct their customers to verify speaker functionality. If the customers do not hear two quick beeps or there is static then they have a faulty speaker. The letters instruct them to stop using the monitor and contact Welch Allyn to have the monitor repaired. If the monitor continues to emit two quick beeps their customers are to contact Welch Allyn to have the monitor repaired as soon as it is convenient. The customers are to verify the two beeps prior to each use. The letter dated June 8, 2004 went to only a couple of direct customers. The remaining letters dated June 14, 2004, June 23, 2004, June 30, 2004 and July 9, 2004 went to direct customers, distributors and distributors'' end user customers.
