•
An Oxygen Analyzer/monitor must be used to verify
oxygen concentration.
•
Accuracy of oxygen concentration will be affected if bleed
is not activated at flow settings below 15 l/min for the High
Flow Blender, and 3 l/min for the Low Flow Blender.
•
dO NOT obstruct the alarm.
•
dO NOT use Blender when alarm is sounding.
•
dO NOT use oil in or around the Blender.
•
dO NOT occlude or obstruct the bleed port on the
auxiliary outlet of the Blender.
