The recalled units have part number 364551-01 and a date code (DC) of "2303" (the 23rd week of 2003) or earlier, which can be found on the edge of the device above the mounting tabs. These devices contain a slot labeled "SECURITY" that should prioritize the security line during emergencies.

The devices pose a safety hazard because a security system connected to the device could be prevented from notifying emergency personnel of a hazard, potentially delaying response and causing consumers to suffer injuries.
