Do not leave a nasal cannula under bed coverings or chair
cushions. If the unit is turned on but not in use, the oxygen will
make the material flammable. Set the I/0 power switch to the 0
(off) position when the VisionAire unit is not in use.
Do not use extension cords with this unit or connect too many
plugs into the same electrical outlet. This can result in an
overload to the electrical panel causing the breaker/fuse to
activate.
Use only voltage specified on back panel label.
Do not use your oxygen concentrator in the presence of
flammable gases. This can result in rapid burning causing

allowing water to enter the unit. This can cause the unit to
malfunction or shut down, and cause an increased risk for
electrical shock or burns.
Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet before

hazards. Only your Equipment Provider or a qualified
service technician should remove the covers or service
the unit.
