• The settings of this device may not
correspond with the settings for devices
that provide a continuous flow oxygen.
• Use of this device at an altitude above 3,048
m (10,000 ft) or outside the temperature range
of 5 – 40°C (41 – 104° F) or a relative humidity
above 95% is expected to adversely affect
the flowrate and the percentage of oxygen
and consequently the quality of the oxygen
therapy. Use of this device immediately after
storage in temperatures beyond the
allowable operating range may adversely
affect operation of the device until the tem-
perature returns to the allowable operating
range. Wind or strong drafts can adversely
affect the accurate delivery of oxygen
therapy.
• If the device fails, it will cause a return to your
previous condition prior to starting oxygen
therapy. This state will be different for each
individual patient.
• If you are unable to communicate discomfort,
you may require additional monitoring and or
a distributed alarm system to convey the
information about the discomfort and or the
medical urgency to your responsible
caregiver to avoid harm.
