CARE & MAINTENANCE
The DeVilbiss iFill Oxygen Cylinders should be kept clean and free from moisture and dust. The cylinders should be protected
from extreme temperatures. Clean the cylinders periodically by wiping with a dry, lint-free cloth. Do not clean with a solvent
based cleaning solution. Avoid dropping the cylinder or placing it in a position where it could topple or fall since this can damage
the device. Whenever possible, use a padded carrying bag such as the Hideaway or Walkabout bags to carry the cylinder. This
will help to protect it in case of a fall. Avoid getting fluids or debris such as sand or dirt inside the oxygen cylinder and/or oxygen
connector.
