Warning Information
The unit contains liquid oxygen which is extremely
cold; almost 300 degrees below zero Fahrenheit. Exposure to such a low temperature can cause severe frostbite.
Liquid and gaseous oxygen, though nonflammable,
cause other materials to burn faster than normal. This hazard, along with the low temperature of liquid oxygen, warrants certain safety precautions.
Do not use or store your unit in an area where
combustible materials such as oils, greases, aerosol sprays, lotions or solvents are present.
Do not smoke while operating unit.
Do not use or store your unit within five feet of
electrical appliances, especially stoves, heaters, toasters, and hair dryers.

Keep your unit in a well-ventilated area.
In the event of an accidental tip-over, immediately but
cautiously return unit into an upright position.
If any liquid oxygen is escaping, leave the area immediately and call your health care provider.
Do not touch the frosted parts of any unit.
Do not store or operate the portable coupled to the
Liberator/Low Loss.
