Operating Instructions - Saros 9400R-SEQ Operators & Service Manual

BEFORE OPERATING
This Operator & Service Manual serves as your reference to help you operate and maintain the device. If you have any questions
or concerns please contact a qualified representative, or CAIRE Inc.
WARNING: PROTECT THE SAROS AND THE AC POWER ADAPTER AND 24 VDC CABLE FROM ALL FLUID SPILLS OR
FLUID DRIPS TO AVOID POSSIBLE SHOCK HAZARDS.
CAUTION: Always check that the air inlet and the exhaust vent of the device are not blocked and the air inlet filter
is clean before using your device.
POWERING ON YOUR SAROS
The SAROS comes complete with the concentrator, AC Power Adapter, power cord, 24 VDC Cable, Battery, and extra filters. The
SAROS is a lightweight portable and stationary source of supplemental oxygen. The device is capable of being operated directly
from three different power sources: AC power adapter, DC power supply, and battery. To power the SAROS on, connect a source
of power and press and hold the ON/PFF button for 2–3 seconds.
GENERAL CHARGING INFORMATION
The SAROS charges the Battery when external power (AC or DC) is present and when the Battery temperature is below a safe
charging temperature. When external power is disconnected, the device will automatically switch over to the Battery, if installed
and charged. When external power is restored, by plugging into an AC or DC outlet, the device will accept power from the exter-
nal power source and recharge the Battery while operating the device if adequate AC or DC power is available.
WARNING: DO NOT TOUCH THE POWER CONNECTOR ON THE BOTTOM OF THE UNIT WITH THE BATTERY REMOVED
AND WHEN THE DEVICE IS CONNECTED TO AN EXTERNAL AC OR DC POWER SOURCE.
AC POWER ADAPTER
The SAROS includes a universal AC Power Adapter for use wherever standard AC power is available. To connect to an AC power
source, be sure the AC Power Adapter device cord is securely inserted into the recessed power receptacle on the top of the device
and that the AC power cord from the AC Power Adapter is plugged into a grounded AC outlet. When the device is plugged in
properly, the External Power is Present Indicator will appear on the user control panel in Normal Mode.
CAUTION: The AC power cords used with the SAROS must meet the electrical requirements of the country where
the device is used.
CAUTION: Use only with a grounded, 3-pin receptacle. Do not remove the grounding pin from the power cord.
CAUTION: Use only with CAIRE Inc. supplied power cords.
DC POWER SUPPLY
A 24 VDC Cable allows the system to operate from DC outlets, such as those found in vehicles. Start the vehicle. Insert the 24
VDC cable into the power receptacle on the top of the device. Next, insert the 24 VDC Cable plug into the DC power outlet in
your vehicle. When the device is properly connected and receiving power from the DC power source, a green indicator light on
the External Power is Present Indicator, on the control panel will illuminate in Normal Mode.
WARNING: SECURE THE SAROS AND THE DC POWER SUPPLY IN YOUR VEHICLE AND BE SURE THERE IS ADEQUATE
AIR FLOW TO THE DEVICE AND THAT THE AIR INLET AND EXHAUST VENTS ARE NOT BLOCKED. BLOCKING OF THE AIR
INLET OR EXHAUST VENT MAY IMPAIR DEVICE PERFORMANCE.
WARNING: DO NOT LEAVE THE SAROS OR 24 VDC CABLE PLUGGED INTO THE VEHICLE WITHOUT THE ENGINE RUN-
NING OR ATTEMPT TO START THE VEHICLE WHILE THE DC CABLE IS CONNECTED TO THE VEHICLE. DOING SO WILL
DRAIN THE VEHICLE'S BATTERY.
