SECTION 1 —GENERAL GUIDELINES
WARNING
The use of oxygen therapy requires that special care be taken
to reduce the risk of fire. Any materials that will burn in air,
and some that will not, are easily ignited and burn rapidly in
high concentrations of oxygen. For safety concerns, it is
necessary that all sources of ignition be kept away from the
product and preferably out of the room in which it is being
used. NO SMOKING signs should be prominently displayed.
A spontaneous and violent ignition may occur if oil, grease or
greasy substances come in contact with oxygen under
pressure. These substances MUST be kept away from the
oxygen concentrator, tubing and connections, and all other
oxygen equipment. DO NOT use any lubricants unless
recommended by Invacare.
For optimum performance, Invacare recommends that each
concentrator be on and running for a minimum of 30 minutes
at a time. Shorter periods of operation may reduce maximum
product life.
If the concentrator has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not
working properly, if it has been dropped or damaged, or
dropped into water, call qualified technician for examination
and repair.
Keep the oxygen tubing, cord, and unit away from heated or
hot surfaces, including space heaters, blankets, stoves and
similar electrical appliances.
DO NOT move or relocate concentrator by pulling on the
cord.
NEVER drop or insert any object into any opening.
