Connect the nasal cannula tubing
to the nozzle fitting. Nozzle fitting is
located on the top of the Inogen One®
G5. Use of a single lumen cannula up
to 25 feet in length is recommended
to ensure proper breath detection and
oxygen delivery. Additional titration
may be needed to ensure proper
oxygen delivery when using a particular
cannula, consult your physician.
7.
Turn on your Inogen One® G5 by
pressing the ON/OFF Button. A single
short beep will sound after the Inogen
logo is displayed. Please wait icon (
will appear while the concentrator starts
up. The display will indicate the selected
flow setting and power condition.
Following a brief start-up sequence, a
warm up period up to 2 minutes will
initiate. During this time period the
oxygen concentration is building to but
may not have reached specification.
Additional warm up time may be
needed if your Inogen One® G5 has been
stored in extremely cold temperatures.
8.
Set the Inogen One® G5 Concentrator
to the flow rate prescribed by your
physician or clinician. Use the + or –
setting buttons to adjust the Inogen
One® G5 to the desired setting. The
current setting can be viewed on the
display.
9.
Position the nasal cannula on your face
and breathe through your nose. The
Inogen One® G5 will sense the onset of
inhalation and deliver a burst of oxygen
at a precise time when you inhale. The
Inogen One® G5 will sense each breath
and continue to deliver oxygen in this
manner. As your breathing rate changes,
the Inogen One® G5 will sense these
changes and deliver oxygen only as
you need it. At times, if you inhale very
quickly between breaths the Inogen
One® G5 may ignore one of the breaths,
giving the appearance of a missed
breath. This may be normal as the
Inogen One® G5 senses and monitors
the changes in your breathing pattern.
The Inogen One® G5 will normally sense
the next breath and deliver oxygen
accordingly.
