IMPORTANT: You may be fl ying on multiple fl ights or multiple airlines, which could also
involve extended periods of Zen-O™ POC use on the ground between fl ights.
• Zen-O™ owner's manual information regarding expected duration of battery power.
IMPORTANT: You should never rely upon available onboard aircraft electrical power dur-
ing a fl ight.
• Air carrier requirements to carry a certain amount of batteries are typically available on
each airline's web site.

EN
for at least 150% of the expected maximum fl ight duration.
8.1.4. Documentation
You are responsible for the operation of the Zen-O™ POC on board the aircraft. For this
reason, the FAA recommends that passengers carry with them, at minimum, this User
Manual and any other written information provided by your healthcare professional re-
garding the Zen-O™ POC and its use.
8.1.5. Physician´s Statement
An air carrier may require a medical certifi cate from a passenger with a disability if there
is reasonable doubt that the individual can complete the fl ight safely without requiring
extraordinary medical assistance during the fl ight. Also, an air carrier may require a medi-
cal certifi cate from a person who needs medical oxygen during a fl ight. The FAA does
not require passengers to obtain a physician's statement and present such statement
to the operator or pilot in command (PIC) prior to Zen-O™ POC use on board the aircraft.
8.1.6. Spare Batteries
Battery damage and battery short circuit can result in battery overheating and fi re. These
events, in turn, can result in personal injury to passengers, and in the worst case for cer-
tain types of batteries, a catastrophic passenger compartment fi re. Thus, spare lithium
batteries carried on board aircraft must be individually protected from short circuit by
placement in original retail packaging, by taping over exposed terminals, or by placing
each battery in a separate plastic bag / protective pouch.
IMPORTANT: Spare lithium batteries are prohibited from being carried in checked bag-
gage on an aircraft.
You are responsible for ensuring that all spare batteries carried in carry-on baggage are
properly packaged. Zen-O™ POC equipment providers, some airlines, and freight for-
warders specialising in small package shipments may provide this packaging service for
you.
