2.5.1 Warnings when handling oxygen
Warning
There is a fire risk associated with the enrichment of oxygen during oxygen therapy.
Do not use the oxygen concentrator or accessories near sparks or open flames.
Warning
To ensure that the therapeutic amount of oxygen delivery is delivered according to your medical
condition, the Précise 6000 MI / MSI:
- should only be used with settings that have been individually determined or prescribed for you
and your current activity level with your accessories;
- may only be used with the specific combination of parts and accessories that meet the
specification of the concentrator or accessory manufacturer.
Warning
Before and during oxygen therapy, use only water-based lotions or ointments that are compatible
with oxygen. Do not use petroleum or oil-based lotions or ointments to avoid the risk of fire or
burns.
Warning
Fittings, connections, tubings or other accessories of the oxygen concentrator must not be
lubricated in order to avoid the risk of fire or burns.
Warning
To ensure proper function and to avoid the risk of fire or burn injuries, spare parts recommended
by the manufacturer must be used.
Warning
Oxygen facilitates the sparking and spread of fire. Do not leave the nasal cannula or mask on bed
covers or chair cushions when the oxygen concentrator is switched on and not in use; The oxygen
increases the flammability of the material and makes it flammable. Switch off the oxygen
concentrator when it is not in use to prevent oxygen enrichment.
Warning
If this device is used above an altitude of 2000 meters above sea level, or outside a temperature of
15°C - 40°C or at a relative humidity of more than 65%, a negative influence on the volume flow
and the percentage of oxygen and consequently an impairment of the quality of the therapy is to
be expected.
Warning
If you experience discomfort or a medical emergency during oxygen therapy, seek medical
attention immediately to avoid harm.
Warning
For geriatric, pediatric or any other patients who are unable to communicate, complaints may
require additional monitoring and/or a distributed alert system to relay information about the
complaint and/or medical urgency to the appropriate caregiver to prevent harm.
Warning
Smoking during oxygen therapy is dangerous and is likely to result in facial burns or death.
Do not allow smoking or open flames in the room where the oxygen concentrator or oxygen-
containing accessories are located. If you want to smoke, you must always switch off the oxygen
concentrator, remove the nasal cannula and leave the room in which either the nasal cannula or
the mask or the oxygen concentrator is located. Unless you are able to leave the room, you must
wait 10 minutes after switching off the oxygen concentrator before smoking.
Warning
Open flames during oxygen therapy are dangerous and may lead to fire or death. Open flames
within 2 m of the oxygen concentrator or oxygen-carrying accessories are not permitted.
Warning
Oxygen tubings, cables and the concentrator must not be covered by blankets, covers, seat
cushions, clothing, etc. or come close to heated or hot surfaces, such as radiators and similar
electrical devices.
