Part No 1118353 |
SECTION 1—GENERAL GUIDELINES
WARNING
The use of oxygen therapy requires that special care be taken to reduce the risk of fire. Any materials that will burn in air, and some that will not, are easily ignited and burn rapidly in high concentrations of oxygen. For safety concerns, it is necessary that all sources of ignition be kept away from the product and preferably out of the room in which it is being used. NO SMOKING signs should be prominently displayed.
A spontaneous and violent ignition may occur if oil, grease or greasy substances come in contact with oxygen under pressure. These substances MUST be kept away from the oxygen concentrator, tubing and connections, and all other oxygen equipment. DO NOT use any lubricants unless recommended by Invacare.
For optimum performance, Invacare recommends that each concentrator be on and running for a minimum of 30 minutes at a time. Shorter periods of operation may reduce maximum product life.
If the concentrator has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly, if it has been dropped or damaged, or dropped into water, call qualified technician for examination and repair.
Keep the oxygen tubing, cord, and unit away from heated or hot surfaces, including space heaters, blankets, stoves and similar electrical appliances.
DO NOT move or relocate concentrator by pulling on the cord.
NEVER drop or insert any object into any opening.
