OPERATING 
INSTRUCTIONS
Introduction
Your oxygen concentrator is intended for individual use in the 
home. It is an electronically operated device that separates 
oxygen from room air. It provides high concentration of 
oxygen directly to you through a nasal cannula. Clinical 
studies have documented that oxygen concentrators are 
therapeutically equivalent to other types of oxygen delivery 
systems.
Your provider will show you how to use your oxygen 
concentrator. He/She should be contacted with any questions 
or problems regarding your oxygen concentrator. This 
owner’s manual will tell you about your concentrator and will 
serve as a reference as you use your concentrator.
Select a Location
You may select a room in your house where using your 
oxygen concentrator would be most convenient. Your 
concentrator can be easily rolled from room to room on its 
casters.
Your oxygen concentrator will perform best when operated 
under the following conditions. Refer to Recommended 
Guidelines for Optimum Performance on page 17. Usage in 
environments other than those described may result in the 
need for increased equipment maintenance. The air intake of 
the unit should be located in a well ventilated area to avoid 
airborne pollutants and/or fumes.
