Reason

Due to a potential manufacturing error, a rare possibility exists for a sudden drop in table height of the patient table. The maximum drop in height is 5cm and this error could potentially occur with or without user interaction. Therefore, it is necessary to inspect the table of distributed  systems to ensure it was manufactured in a manner that confirms safe operation.
