3.1.
1. The device must be used in the carry bag to provide protection from liquid intrusion
from rain and/or spills.

EN
spond with continuous flow oxygen.
4. The settings of other models or brands of portable oxygen concentrators do not cor-
respond with the settings of Zen-O lite™ Portable Oxygen Concentrator RS-00600.
5. Wind or strong drafts can adversely affect accurate delivery of oxygen therapy.
6. Geriatrics or any other patient unable to communicate discomfort can require addi-
tional monitoring to avoid harm.
7. Smoking (including e-cigarettes) during oxygen therapy is dangerous and is likely to
result in facial burns, serious injury or death of the patient and others from fire. Do
not allow smoking or open flames within the same room as the portable oxygen con-
centrator or any oxygen carrying accessories. If you smoke, you must always turn the
oxygen concentrator off, remove the cannula and leave the room where either the
cannula or the concentrator is located. If unable to leave the room, you must wait 10
minutes after the flow of oxygen has been stopped.
8. Use only water based lotions that are oxygen compatible, before and during oxygen
therapy. Never use petroleum or oil based lotions or salves when operating the device
to avoid the risk of fire and burns.
9. Open flames during oxygen therapy are dangerous and are likely to result in fire or
death. Do not allow open flames within 3 metres (10 feet) of the oxygen concentrator
or any oxygen carrying accessory.
10. Oxygen makes it easier for a fire to start and spread. Do not leave the nasal cannula
on bed coverings or chair cushions with the concentrator on, but not in use; the oxy-
gen will make the materials flammable. Turn the concentrator off when not in use to
prevent oxygen enrichment.
11. Explosion hazard. Do not use in the presence of flammable anaesthetics!
12. Do not use this device in the presence of pollutants or fumes.
13. Do not submerge this device in liquid. Do not expose to water or precipitation. Do not
expose to dusty conditions.
