SimplyGo User Manual

By Air

Every airline has policies for travel with portable oxygen concentrators such
as your SimplyGo device� Some airlines do not permit their use while flying
on their aircraft� When you make your reservation, be sure to ask the airline
for their policy regarding use of your SimplyGo during flight. For updated
information about air travel with your device, visit our web site:
www�philips�com�
When flying in the U�S� and abroad, commercial airlines may have unusual
requirements for oxygen concentrators� Before you fly, contact all of your
airlines on each of your connecting flights for permission to carry your
SimplyGo system on board� Be sure to ask about any documentation you may
need to bring with you�
Make sure your battery is fully charged and that you have enough battery
power for the duration of your flight� If your airline allows you to connect to an
airline power source, they may request that you remove the battery from your
device even though the SimplyGo will not allow the battery to be charged
when an airline cable is connected�
On the day of your flight, plan to arrive early� Airport security officers may
need extra time to clear your luggage and oxygen system� They may also ask
you to remove the SimplyGo device from the carrying case for inspection�
