4.1 WARNING
Risk of injury or damage
• This device produces enriched oxygen gas,
which accelerates combustion. Do not allow
smoking or open flames within 2m (6.56ft) of
this device while in use. Smoking during
oxygen therapy is dangerous and is likely to
result in facial burns or death. If you smoke,
you must always turn the oxygen
concentrator off, remove the cannula and
leave the room where either the cannula or the
oxygen concentrator is located. If unable to
leave the room, you must wait 10 minutes after
the flow of oxygen has been stopped.
• Do not use in conjunction with a humidifier,
nebulizer, or CPAP, or connected with any other
equipment. Doing so may impair performance
and/or damage the equipment.
• The Rove 6 is MR Unsafe. Do not expose to
MRI equipment or other devices that generate
strong magnetic fields (for example, x-ray,
CT scan, or other types of radiation).
• It is the responsibility of the patient to have an
alternate source of oxygen in case of power
outage or mechanical failure. This should be
assessed upon starting oxygen therapy and be
based on the patient's condition, environmental
living conditions and the ability of the patient to
be resupplied with backup supplies of
supplementary oxygen. These attributes should
be periodically reassessed as the patient's
conditions change.
• If you feel ill or uncomfortable, or if the
concentrator does not signal an oxygen pulse
and you are unable to hear and/or feel the
oxygen pulse, consult your equipment provider
and/or your physician IMMEDIATELY.
• Oxygen makes materials flammable. Do not
leave the nasal cannula or mask on bed
coverings or chair cushions, if the oxygen
concentrator is turned on but not in use.
Turn the oxygen concentrator off when not in
use to prevent oxygen enrichment.

device in the presence of flammable
anesthetics, cleaning agents or other chemical
vapors. Do not use aerosol sprays around the
device.
• Do not use power supplies, power cables or
accessories other than those specific in this
user manual. The use of nonspecific power
supplies, power cables or accessories may
create a safety hazard and/or impair equipment
performance.

products on or near the device, on your face or
upper chest to avoid the risk of fires and burns.
Use only water-based lotions or salves that are
oxygen-compatible during setup or use during
oxygen therapy.
• Do not lubricate fittings, connections, tubing, or
other accessories of the oxygen concentrator
to avoid the risk of fire and burns.

hazard, keep cords away from children and
pets.
• It is the responsibility of the patient to
periodically check the battery and replace
as necessary per these instructions for
use. Inogen assumes no liability for persons
choosing not to adhere to manufacturer
recommendations.
• To ensure you are receiving the therapeutic
amount of oxygen according to your medical
condition, the device must (1) be used only
after one or more settings have been
individually determined or prescribed for you
at your specific activity levels, (2) be used with
the specific combination of parts and accesso-
ries that are in line with the specification of the
