WARNING
SECTION 1 - GENERAL GUIDELINES contains
important information for the safe operation and use of
this product.
In order to ensure the safe installation, assembly and operation of
the Platinum concentrator these instructions MUST be followed.
CAUTION
"Caution: Statutory law can restrict this device to sale by or on order
of a physician, or any other practitioner licensed by the law of the
governmental agency in which he/she practices to use or order the
use of this device."
DANGER
Risk of electric shock. DO NOT disassemble. Refer servicing to
qualified service personnel.
WARNINGS
The use of oxygen therapy requires that special care be taken to
reduce the risk of fire. Any materials that will burn in air, and some
that will not, are easily ignited and burn rapidly in high
concentrations of oxygen. For safety concerns, it is necessary that all
sources of ignition be kept away from the product and preferably
out of the room in which it is being used. NO SMOKING signs
should be prominently displayed.
A spontaneous and violent ignition may occur if oil, grease or
greasy substances come in contact with oxygen under pressure.
These substances MUST be kept away from the oxygen
concentrator, tubing and connections, and all other oxygen
equipment. DO NOT use any lubricants unless expressly
recommended by Invacare.
For optimum performance, Invacare recommends that each
concentrator be on and running for a minimum of 30 minutes at a time.
Shorter periods of operation may reduce maximum product life.
If the concentrator has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working
properly, if it has been dropped or damaged, or dropped into water,
call Qualified Service Personnel for examination and repair.
