25 ft (7,6 m).

1. Remove the cannula from its packaging.
2. Connect the cannula to the concentrator oxygen outlet
port A. Ensure the connection is secure.
3. Place the cannula B over your ears and position the
prongs in your nose as instructed by your health care
provider or cannula manufacturer.
Gas flow at the outlet of the cannula can be checked
while the concentrator is warming up. Wave your
hand in front of the nasal prongs. You should be
able to hear and feel the pulsed flow of gas. If
you do not feel the gas pulse, check the cannula
connection for leaks.
