4.1 WARNING
Risk of injury or damage
• This device produces enriched oxygen gas,
which accelerates combustion. Do not allow
smoking or open flames within 2m (6.56ft) of this
device while in use. Smoking during oxygen
therapy is dangerous and is likely to result in
facial burns or death. If you smoke, you must
always turn the oxygen concentrator off, remove
the cannula and leave the room where either the
cannula or the oxygen concentrator is located.
If unable to leave the room, you must wait 10
minutes after the flow of oxygen has been
stopped.
• Do not use in conjunction with a humidifier,
nebulizer, or CPAP, or connected with any other
equipment. Doing so may impair performance
and/or damage the equipment.
• The Rove 6 is MR Unsafe. Do not expose to MRI
equipment or other devices that generate strong
magnetic fields (for example, x-ray, CT scan, or
other types of radiation).
• It is the responsibility of the patient to have an
alternate source of oxygen in case of power
outage or mechanical failure. This should be
assessed upon starting oxygen therapy and be
based on the patient's condition, environmental
living conditions and the ability of the patient to
be resupplied with backup supplies of
supplementary oxygen. These attributes should
be periodically reassessed as the patient's
conditions change.
• If you feel ill or uncomfortable, or if the
concentrator does not signal an oxygen pulse
and you are unable to hear and/or feel the
oxygen pulse, consult your equipment provider
and/or your physician IMMEDIATELY.
• Oxygen makes materials flammable. Do not
leave the nasal cannula or mask on bed
coverings or chair cushions, if the oxygen
concentrator is turned on but not in use. Turn

the oxygen concentrator off when not in use to
prevent oxygen enrichment.
• Avoid use of the device in the presence of
pollutants, smoke, or fumes. Do not use the
device in the presence of flammable
anesthetics, cleaning agents or other chemical
vapors. Do not use aerosol sprays around the
device.
• Do not use power supplies, power cables or
accessories other than those specific in this
user manual. The use of nonspecific power
supplies, power cables or accessories may
create a safety hazard and/or impair equipment
performance.
• Do not use oil, grease, or petroleum-based
products on or near the device, on your face or
upper chest to avoid the risk of fires and burns.
Use only water-based lotions or salves that are
oxygen-compatible during setup or use during
oxygen therapy.
• Do not lubricate fittings, connections, tubing, or
other accessories of the oxygen concentrator to
avoid the risk of fire and burns.
• To avoid danger of choking or strangulation
hazard, keep cords away from children and pets.
• It is the responsibility of the patient to
periodically check the battery and replace as
necessary per these instructions for use. Inogen
assumes no liability for persons choosing not to
adhere to manufacturer recommendations.
• To ensure you are receiving the therapeutic
amount of oxygen according to your medical
condition, the device must (1) be used only after
one or more settings have been individually
determined or prescribed for you at your specific
activity levels, (2) 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.
