Operating Instructions
1. To verify the level of liquid oxygen in the unit,
see page 9.
2. Clean the fill connectors on both the Liberator
and portable unit with a clean, dry, lint free cloth
between each fill to prevent freezing and possible
equipment failure.
WARNING: THE CONNECTION MUST BE
DRY, BECAUSE MOISTURE CAN CAUSE
THE EQUIPMENT TO FREEZE TOGETHER
AND MAY CAUSE LEAKAGE IN THE FILL
CONNECTORS.

TIONS ON THE LIBERATOR AND POR-
TABLE UNIT WITH A CLEAN, DRY, LINT
FREE CLOTH.
WARNING: DO NOT DEPRESS OR DIS-
TURB THE METAL POPPET ON THE FILL
CONNECTOR WHEN DRYING IT. THIS CAN
CAUSE LEAKAGE OF LIQUID OXYGEN. IF
A LEAK OCCURS, LEAVE THE ROOM AND
CALL YOUR HEALTH CARE PROVIDER.
WARNING: SHOULD LEAKAGE BE EXCES-
SIVE TO THE POINT THAT A STREAM OF
LIQUID IS PRESENT, LEAVE THE AREA
AND CALL YOUR HEALTH CARE PRO-
VIDER IMMEDIATELY.
WARNING: IF LARGE AMOUNTS OF
VAPOR ARE ISSUING FROM THE UNITS
DURING FILLING, STOP FILLING, LEAVE
THE ROOM AND CALL YOUR HEALTH
CARE PROVIDER.

HEARD, STOP USE AND CONTACT YOUR
HEALTH CARE PROVIDER IMMEDIATELY
