SAFETY SUMMARY

CAUTION

Risk of electric shock. DO NOT disassemble. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.

READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION BEFORE OPERATING THIS PRODUCT.

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 expressly 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 Service Personnel for examination and repair.

Keep the cord away from HEATED or HOT surfaces. Do not move or relocate concentrator by pulling on

the cord. NEVER drop or insert any object into any opening. NEVER block the air openings of the product or place it on a

soft surface, such as a bed or couch, where the air opening may be blocked. Keep the openings free from lint, hair and the like.

SAFETY SUMMARY

WARNING (CONTINUED)

ADVERTENCIA

La oxigenoterapia debe realizarse con sumo cuidado para reducir el riesgo de incendio. Cualquier material combustible o no en el aire es fácilmente inflamable en concentraciones altas de oxígeno. Por razones de seguridad, es preciso mantener todas las fuentes inflamables lejos del producto, y preferiblemente fuera de la habitación donde sea utilizado. Coloque señales de NO FUMAR en lugares visibles.

Puede producirse una inflamación espontánea y violenta si aceite, grasas u otras substancias entran en contacto con el oxígeno bajo presión. ALEJE estas substancias del concentrador de oxígeno, de sus tubos, conexiones y de todo otro equipo afín. NO use ningún tipo de lubricante a menos que éste sea recomendado por Invacare.

Para obtener un rendimiento óptimo, Invacare recomienda mantener los concentradores encendidos y funcionando por un mínimo de 30 minutos cada vez. Periodos de funcionamiento inferiores pueden reducir la vida útil máxima del producto.

Póngase en contacto con personal de servicio calificado para que repare el equipo en caso de que éste tenga el cable o enchufe dañados, si no funciona adecuadamente, si se ha caído, dañado o caído al agua.

Mantenga el cable lejos de superficies TEMPERADAS o CALIENTES.

No tire del cable eléctrico para mover ni trasladar el concentrador.

NUNCA deje caer ni introduzca ningún objeto en ninguna abertura.
