• Certain button provisions in the Zen-O lite™ POC operating manual regarding oxygen
delivery, indicators, warnings, and alerts, as well as setting/changing litre flow or LPM.
• All crewmembers (pilots and flight attendants (F/A)) receive training regarding the han-
dling of in-flight medical events. However, the FAA does not require that air carriers or

8 . 1 .3 . Determine a Sufficient Number of Batteries
You are responsible for bringing a sufficient number of batteries to power the Zen-O lite™
POC for the duration of the expected use of your Zen-O lite™ POC. You should consider
at least the following in determining a sufficient number of batteries:
• Healthcare professional advice regarding duration of Zen-O lite™ POC use.
• Air carrier information regarding duration of the expected flight as well as any layovers
and unanticipated delays.
IMPORTANT: You may be flying on multiple flights or multiple airlines, which could also
involve extended periods of Zen-O lite™ POC use on the ground between flights.
• Zen-O lite™ owner's manual information regarding expected duration of battery power.
IMPORTANT: You should never rely upon available onboard aircraft electrical power dur-
ing a flight.
• Air carrier requirements to carry a certain amount of batteries are typically available on
each airline's web site.
IMPORTANT: Air carriers may require you to bring enough batteries to power the device
for at least 150% of the expected maximum flight duration.
8 . 1 .4 . Documentation
You are responsible for the operation of the Zen-O lite™ POC on board the aircraft. For
this reason, the FAA recommends that passengers carry with them, at minimum, this
User Manual and any other written information provided by your healthcare professional
regarding the Zen-O lite™ POC and its use.
8 . 1 .5 . Physician´s Statement
An air carrier may require a medical certificate from a passenger with a disability if there
is reasonable doubt that the individual can complete the flight safely without requiring
extraordinary medical assistance during the flight. Also, an air carrier may require a medi-
cal certificate from a person who needs medical oxygen during a flight. The FAA does
not require passengers to obtain a physician's statement and present such statement to
the operator or pilot in command (PIC) prior to Zen-O lite™ POC use on board the aircraft.
