IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

Read this entire guide before using your DeVilbiss concentrator . Important safeguards are indicated throughout this guide . Pay
special attention to all safety information .
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING:
A warning indicates the possibility of injury to the user or the operator.
• Oxygen causes rapid burning . Do not smoke while your oxygen concentrator is operating, or when you are near a person
utilizing oxygen therapy .
• Oxygen makes it easier for a fire to start and spread. 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. The oxygen will make the materials flammable. Turn the oxygen concentrator off when not in use to prevent oxygen enrichment.
• Keep the oxygen concentrator and cannula at least 2 m (6.5 feet) from hot, sparking objects or naked sources of flame.
• Open flames during oxygen therapy are dangerous and are likely to result in fire or death. Do not allow open flames within 2 m (6.5 feet) of the oxygen concentrator or
any oxygen carrying accessories .
• Locate oxygen tubing and power supply cords to prevent tripping hazards and reduce the possibility of entanglement or strangulation .
• Equipment not suitable for use in the presence of a flammable anesthetic mixture with air or with oxygen or nitrous oxide.
• Smoking during oxygen therapy is dangerous and is likely to result in facial burns or death . Do not allow smoking within the same room where the oxygen concentrator or
any oxygen carrying accessories are located .
• If you intend to smoke, you must always turn the oxygen concentrator off, remove the cannula and leave the room where either the cannula or mask or the oxygen
concentrator is located . If unable to leave the room, you must wait 10 minutes after you have turned off the oxygen concentrator before smoking .
• In order to prevent a fire propagating from the patient through the cannula towards the unit, a means of protection should be located as close to the patient as
practicable . Please contact your provider for this means of protection .
• DeVilbiss 10-liter oxygen concentrators are equipped with a fire mitigating outlet fitting that prevents propagation of fire into the unit.
• To avoid electric shock, do not remove the concentrator cabinet. The cabinet should only be removed by a qualified DeVilbiss technician. Do not apply liquid directly to
the cabinet or utilize any petroleum-based solvents or cleaning agents .
• Improper use of the power cord and plugs can cause a burn, fire or other electric shock hazards. Do not use the unit if the power cord is damaged.
• The surface temperature of the exhaust vents on the bottom of the unit may exceed 105.8˚F (41 ˚C) under certain conditions.
• When device is used under extreme operating conditions, the temperature near the exhaust vents on the bottom of the unit may reach 138 .2°F (59°C) . Keep body parts
a minimum of 30" (76 .2 cm) away from this area .
• Use of this device at an altitude above 5000 feet (1524 meters) or above a temperature of 95°F (35°C) or greater than 93% relative humidity may affect the flow rate and
the percentage of oxygen and consequently the quality of the therapy. Refer to specifications for details regarding parameters tested.
• It is recommended that the homecare provider lock the flow control knob to prevent inadvertent adjustment. A flow setting other than prescribed may affect the patient
therapy .
• To ensure you receive the therapeutic amount of oxygen delivery according to your medical condition, the Oxygen Concentrator must:
• be used only after one or more settings have been individually determined or prescribed for you at your specific activity levels.
• be used with the specific combination of parts and accessories that are in line with the specification of the concentrator manufacturer and that were used while your
settings were determined .
• If you feel discomfort or are experiencing a medical emergency while undergoing oxygen therapy, seek medical assistance immediately to avoid harm .
