QUALICHECK 3

Reason

Radiometer has recently become aware that supplementary inserts for some lots of S7335 (AutoCheck 3+ Level 1) distributed in connection with the release of sofware version 6.16 for the ABL800 series analyzers state an incorrect control range for PCO2 in "ABL810/820/830 SW more than V6.16" column. On the incorrect inserts both the low and high limits are offset by +1.3 mmHg for all affected lots. This also applies to the value in the barcode in the insert. The bar code is used to upload the values to the analyzer.
