Cleaning, Care, and Proper Maintenance
Cabinet
Electrical shock hazard. Turn OFF the unit and disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet before
you clean the unit to prevent accidental electrical shock and burn hazard. Only your Equipment Provider
or a qualified service technician should remove the covers or service the unit
.
Care should be taken to prevent the Oxygen Concentrator and the battery from getting wet or allowing fluids
to enter the unit. This can cause a malfunction or shut down, and cause an increased risk for electrical
shock or burns.
Do not use liquid directly on the unit. A list of undesirable chemical agents includes but is not limited to the
following: alcohol and alcohol-based products, concentrated chlorine-based products (ethylene chloride),
and oil- based products (Pine-Sol®, Lestoil®). These are NOT to be used to clean the plastic housing on
Oxygen Concentrator, as they can damage the unit’s plastic.
Clean the cabinet, control panel, and power cord only with a mild household cleaner applied with a damp
(not wet) cloth or sponge, and then wipe all surfaces dry. Do not allow any liquid to get inside the device.
Pay special attention to the oxygen outlet for the cannula connection to make sure it remains free of dust,
water, and particles.
While using the portable Oxygen Concentrator outdoors with the AC power supply, connect the power
supply into a Ground Fault Interrupted (GFI) outlet only.
Always disconnect AC Power Supply from the wall before disconnecting the AC Power Supply from the
oxygen concentrator.
Ensure the cannula is fully inserted and secure. This ensures that the Oxygen Concentrator can properly
detect inspiration for oxygen delivery. During inhalation, you should hear or feel oxygen flow to the prongs of
the nasal cannula.
Always follow the cannula manufacturer’s instructions for proper use. Replace the disposable cannula as
recommended by the cannula manufacturer or your Equipment Provider. Additional supplies are available
from your Equipment Provider.
Cannula tubing must be non-kinking, which can be used for a total length of up to 25 ft (7.6 m) maximum.

To prevent a voided AirSep warranty, follow all manufacturers’ instructions.
Portable and mobile RF communications equipment can effect medical electrical equipment.
There is never a danger of depleting the oxygen in a room when you use your Oxygen Concentrator unit.
