Oxygen Concentrator, as they can damage the unit's plastic.
WARNING
Clean the cabinet, control panel, and power cord only with a mild household cleaner applied with a damp
(not wet) cloth or sponge, and then wipe all surfaces dry. Do not allow any liquid to get inside the device.
Pay special attention to the oxygen outlet for the cannula connection to make sure it remains free of dust,
water, and particles.
While using the portable Oxygen Concentrator outdoors with the AC power supply, connect the power
supply into a Ground Fault Interrupted (GFI) outlet only.
Always disconnect AC Power Supply from the wall before disconnecting the AC Power Supply from the
oxygen concentrator.
The Oxygen Concentrator should not be used adjacent to or stacked with other equipment. If adjacent or
stacked use is unavoidable, the device should be observed to verify normal operation.
No modification of this equipment is permitted.
WARNING
Use of cables and adapters other than those specified, with the exception of cables and adapters sold by the
manufacturer of the medical electrical equipment as replacement parts for internal components, may result
in increased emissions of decreased immunity of the Oxygen Concentrator.
Use only electrical voltage specified on the specification label affixed to the device.
Do not use extension cords with this unit or connect too many plugs into the same electrical outlet. The use
of extension cords could adversely affect the performance of the device. Too many plugs into one outlet can
result in an overload to the electrical panel causing the breaker/fuse to activate or fire if the breaker or fuse
fails to operate.
Operating outside of the operational specifications can limit the concentrator's ability to meet Oxygen
Concentration specification. Refer to the specifications section of this manual for storage and operating
temperature limits.
WARNING
The incorrect use of the battery can cause the battery to get hot, ignite, and may cause serious injury. Be
sure not to pierce, strike, step on, drop the battery, or otherwise subject the battery to strong impacts or
shocks. The use of a damaged battery may cause personal injury. DO NOT expose the battery to fire or
dispose of in a fire. This may cause the battery to explode and cause potential injury.
WARNING
DO NOT short-circuit the battery's metal contacts with metallic objects, such as keys or coins. This may
cause sparks or excessive heat to be generated.
Contraindications for Use: In certain circumstances, the use of non-prescribed oxygen can be hazardous.
This device should only be used when prescribed by a physician.
NOT FOR USE IN THE PRESENCE OF FLAMMABLE ANETHETICS.
WARNING
As with any electrically powered device, the user may experience periods of non-operation as a results of
electrical power interruption, or the need to have the oxygen concentrator serviced by a qualified technician.
The oxygen concentrator is not appropriate for any patient who would experience adverse health
consequences as the result of such temporary interruption.
