Bring enough charged batteries with you to power your concentrator for no less than 150% of the expected
duration of your flight, ground time before and after the flight, security screenings, connections and a
conservative estimate for unanticipated delays. Note that per FAA regulations, all extra batteries are to
be individually wrapped and protected to prevent short circuits and carried in carry-on baggage onboard
aircraft only.
The AC Power Supply cannot be used to charge the device battery when onboard aircraft. If traveling by
bus, train or boat, contact your carrier to find out about power port availability.
6.15 STORING YOUR CONCENTRATOR
Store your concentrator
• Remove the battery from the concentrator.
• Store concentrator, battery and power accessories in a cool, dry place.
• Store your battery with a charge of 40-50%.
DO NOT store in temperatures less than 41˚F (5˚C) or higher than 95˚F (35˚C) for extended periods of time.
DO NOT place objects on top of the concentrator or packaged concentrator.
6.16 RESPONDING TO ALARMS
CAUTION
If you are unable to hear or see alarms, do not have normal tactile sensitivity, or cannot communicate
discomfort, consult your clinician before using this device.
Pressing the bell button will enable (turn on) and disable (turn off) the no-breath-detect alarm.
When the audible no-breath-detect alarm is ON (because the concentrator has not detected a breath for
60 seconds, see Section 7: alarms for no-breath-detect alarm conditions), the concentrator will emit three
beeps, repeated every 25 seconds and will have a flashing yellow light. When this alarm is triggered, the
concentrator will begin to deliver pulses of oxygen at a rate of 20 boluses per minute. When the audible
no-breath-detect alarm is OFF, the concentrator will respond the same way when no breath is detected for
60 seconds BUT the repeating 3 beeps will not be produced. Whether the no-breath-detect mode is on or
off, it does not impact the alarm functionality of any other device alarms or notifications.
Important: The alarm system is tested during the startup sequence. You should see all alarm lights briefly
turn on and the audible alarm indicator chirp. If alarms are suspected of misoperating, contact your
distributor for verification that alarms are working correctly.
