WARNING
1. If you feel discomfort or are experiencing a medical emergency while undergoing oxygen therapy, seek medical assistance immediately to avoid harm.
2. Geriatric, pediatric or any other patient unable to communicate discomfort can require additional monitoring to avoid harm.
3. Use of this device at an altitude above 3200 meters (10,500 feet) or above a temperature of 35˚C (95˚F) or greater than 93% relative humidity is expected to adversely
affect the flow rate and the percentage of oxygen and consequently the quality of the therapy. Refer to specifications for details regarding parameters tested.
4. The oxygen delivery setting has to be determined for each patient individually with the configuration of the equipment to be used, including accessories. It is very
important to follow the prescription determined by your physician.
5. Your delivery settings of the oxygen concentrator should be periodically reassessed for the effectiveness of therapy.
6. To ensure you receive the therapeutic amount of oxygen delivery according to your medical condition, the iGo2 oxygen concentrator must:
• be used only after one or more settings have been individually determined or prescribed for you at your specific activity levels.
• be used with the specific combination of parts and accessories that are in line with the specification of the concentrator manufacturer and that were used while your
settings were determined.
7. The settings of this iGo2 portable oxygen concentrator do not correspond with continuous flow oxygen device settings.
8. The setting of other models or brands of oxygen therapy equipment do not correspond with the settings of this iGo2 portable oxygen concentrator.
WARNING
There are many types of oxygen tubing and cannulas. Certain accessories may impair the device's performance. Use only standard nasal cannula with 25' or less of crush-
proof oxygen tubing with this concentrator. Do not use pediatric (low-flow) nasal cannula or mask.
1. The proper placement and positioning of the prongs of the nasal cannula in the nose is critical to the amount of oxygen delivered to the respiratory system of the
patient.
2. Some respiratory efforts of the patient might not trigger the conserving equipment.
3. Wind or strong draughts can adversely affect accurate delivery of oxygen therapy.
4. This device is not intended for use with a tracheotomised patient.
5. The rated range of delivered oxygen setting = 1 to 5
6. The rated range of breathing frequency = 4 to 40 breaths per minute (BPM)
7. Periodically inspect connection cords, connector tips and the power supply for damage or signs of wear. Discontinue use if damaged.
8. To minimize the ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT of the 125 Series Portable Oxygen Concentrator during NORMAL USE, remove tubing and nasal cannula from the Portable
Oxygen Concentrator, dispose the tubing and nasal cannula properly. Unplug the 125 Series Portable Oxygen Concentrator from AC power. Clean the cabinet as listed
in the IGO2 POC CARE AND CLEANING section of this guide.
WARNING
1. Availability of an alternate source of oxygen is recommended in case of power outage or mechanical failure. Consult your physician for the type of back-up system
required. Do not ignore alerts.
2. To avoid electric shock, do not remove the concentrator cover. The cover should only be removed by a qualified Drive DeVilbiss technician. Do not apply liquid directly
to the cover or utilize any petroleum-based solvents or cleaning agents.
3. Before attempting any cleaning procedures, turn the unit "Off" and disconnect from AC or DC power.
4. Do not service or clean this device while in use with a Patient.
5. Use no lubricants, oils or grease.
6. Use of harsh chemicals (including alcohol) is not recommended. If bactericidal cleaning is required, a non-alcohol based product should be used to avoid inadvertent
damage.
WARNING
This device contains electrical and/or electronic equipment. Follow local governing ordinances and recycling plans regarding disposal of device components.
MR Unsafe
1. Do not bring the device or accessories into a Magnetic Resonance (MR) environment as it may cause unacceptable risk to the patient or damage to the iGo2 or MR
medical devices. The device and accessories have not been evaluated for safety in an MR environment.
2. Do not use the device or accessories in an environment with electromagnetic equipment such as CT scanners, Diathermy, RFID and electromagnetic security systems
(metal detectors) as it may cause unacceptable risk to the patient or damage to the iGo2. Some electromagnetic sources may not be apparent, if you notice any
unexplained changes in the performance of this device, if it is making unusual or harsh sounds, disconnect the power cord and discontinue use. Contact your home
care provider.
3. This device is suitable for use in home and healthcare environments except for near active HF SURGICAL EQUIPMENT and the RF shielded room of an ME SYSTEM
for magnetic resonance imaging, where the intensity of Electromagnetic DISTURBANCES is high.
4. Use of this equipment adjacent to or stacked with other equipment should be avoided because it could result in improper operation. If such use is necessary, this
equipment and the other equipment should be observed to verify that they are operating normally.
5. Use of accessories and cables other than those specified or provided by the manufacturer of this equipment could result in increased electromagnetic emissions or
decreased electromagnetic immunity of this equipment and result in improper operation.
6. Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and external antennas) should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to any
part of the iGo2, including cables specified by the manufacturer. Otherwise, degradation of the performance of this equipment could result.
