The short version

Smeal Holding, LLC reported a problem with the equipment. Here is what owners need to know.

WHAT

The monitor is used to direct the water stream and adjust the spray pattern. The wireless remote controller's sleep mode is disabled, which results in the batteries discharging faster than normal.

WHY IT MATTERS

Inability to use the wireless remote controller may hinder the firefighting efforts, increasing the risk of injury.

WHAT TO DO

Smeal will notify owners, and dealers will ask the customer to return the affected controller to Akron Brass for a software update, free of charge.
