In the event the label fitted has a production month and year of 04/2023 with a batch number of 231501 as shown in Figure 1
no further action is required, in this scenario the canister should be replaced no later than 04/2027
Hint: No other production month / year and batch numbers are affected other than 04/2023
NOTE: To clarify parts replacement must not be conducted before 04/2027
