Boarding And In-Flight Information - GCE Zen-O lite RS-00600 Manual Del Usario

8 . 1 .6 . Spare Batteries
Battery damage and battery short circuit can result in battery overheating and fire. These
events, in turn, can result in personal injury to passengers, and in the worst case for cer-
tain types of batteries, a catastrophic passenger compartment fire. Thus, spare lithium
batteries carried on board aircraft must be individually protected from short circuit by
placement in original retail packaging, by taping over exposed terminals, or by placing
each battery in a separate plastic bag / protective pouch.
IMPORTANT: Spare lithium batteries are prohibited from being carried in checked bag-
EN
gage on an aircraft.
You are responsible for ensuring that all spare batteries carried in carry-on baggage are
properly packaged. Zen-O lite™ POC equipment providers, some airlines, and freight for-
warders specialising in small package shipments may provide this packaging service for
you.

8 .2 . BOARDING AND IN-FLIGHT INFORMATION

8 .2 . 1 . Carry-on baggage
Your Zen-O lite™ POC is an assistive device. In this case, carriers shall not, in implement-
ing their carry-on baggage policy, count the Zen-O lite™ POC toward a limit on carry-on
items brought into the cabin by a qualified individual with a disability.
IMPORTANT: A bag with additional batteries that is required to power the Zen-O lite™
POC during the flight could also be considered an assistive device. However, there are
restrictions on the Watt Hour (Wh) rating of the battery which is limited to 100Wh per bat-
tery. For your Zen-O lite™ POC, the Watt Hour (Wh) rating is less than 100Wh per battery
maximum, therefore no limitation will be imposed.
8 .2 .2 . Zen-O lite™ POC as Checked Baggage
Your Zen-O lite™ POC may be carried on aircraft as a carry-on or as checked baggage.
However, spare lithium batteries are prohibited from being carried in checked baggage
on an aircraft .
8 .2 .3 . Considerations Regarding Placement and Stowage of your Zen-O lite™ POC
In order for a Zen-O lite™ POC to work efficiently, the air/intake vents must not be blocked
during use. Therefore, the area around the Zen-O lite™ POC should be clear of blankets,
coats, and other pieces of carry-on baggage that may block the air/intake vents. If the
air/intake vents are blocked, two things will occur. First, you will be alerted by warning
lights and/or audible alerts that the oxygen concentration in the Zen-O lite™ POC output
is insufficient. Second, when the temperature of the Zen-O lite™ POC internal compo-
nents increases to a certain limit because the Zen-O lite™ POC is still trying to dispense
oxygen, the Zen-O lite™ POC will automatically shut down to prevent overheating of the
Zen-O lite™ POC and you will be alerted by warning lights and/or audible alerts.
