Caution: The unit contains liquid oxygen which is
extremely cold, almost -300°F (-184°C). Exposure
to such a low temperature can cause severe
frostbite.
Caution: Liquid and gaseous oxygen, though
nonflammable, cause other materials to burn
faster than normal. This hazard, along with the
low temperature of liquid oxygen, warrants
certain safety precautions.
Caution: Keep flammable materials away from
this equipment. Aerosol sprays, oils and grease,
including facial creams and petroleum jelly, ig-
nite easily and may burn rapidly in the presence
of oxygen.
Caution: Smoking while wearing an oxygen can-
nula can cause facial burns and possibly result
in death.
Removing the cannula and placing it on clothing,
bedding, sofas, or other cushion material will
cause a flash fire when exposed to a cigarette,
heat source, spark or flame.
If you smoke please: (1) turn off the portable,
(2) take off the cannula, and (3) leave the room
where the device is located.
Caution: In the event of an accidental tip-over,
immediately but cautiously return the unit into
an upright position if possible. If any liquid oxy-
gen is escaping, leave the area immediately and
call your healthcare provider. Do not attempt
to move the unit or stop the liquid oxygen from
escaping.
NOTE: Do not touch frosted parts of any unit.
NOTE: Do not store or operate the portable coupled
