3 . Slowly open cylinder valve counterclockwise, until completely open.
4. Turn dial on the Conserver until indicating pointer is aligned with the
prescribed setting.
5. Breathe through your nose.
NOTE: • When on a pulse setting, there is flow or a pulse only at the beginning of
each breath. If you do not feel the pulse at the beginning of each breath,
check the setting. If there is still no pulse, turn dial to an equivalent
“Continuous” setting.
• Because each patient’s breathing pattern is different and the environment
varies, it may be difficult to feel some low setting pulses.
6. To remove the Conserver from cylinder:
• Completely close oxygen cylinder valve.
• Turn the Conserver dial to any “Continuous” position.
• Wait for oxygen to stop flowing from Conserver.
• Remove the Conserver from cylinder valve.
DANGER
NEVER attempt to remove the Conserver from a cylinder unless the
cylinder valve is closed.
WARNING
• When cylinder pressure is 500 psi (3447 kPa, 34.47 bar) and below, it
is recommended to change to a full oxygen cylinder.
• NO OXYGEN is delivered in between settings.
• To avoid injury to patient:
• ALWAYS confirm prescribed setting before administering to patient
and monitor flow on a frequent basis.
WARNING
• Use only Precision Medical, Inc. Carry Bag designed for the
EasyPulse 5 to prevent an oxygen enriched environment.
• DO NOT place the unit under clothing while in use.
• When the Conserver is in use a small amount of oxygen is vented. Wearing
the unit under clothing may saturate fabrics with oxygen and cause them
to burn rapidly if exposed to sparks or flame. It may take several hours
for oxygen levels in fabrics to return to normal.
• ALWAYS insert cylinder and the Conserver into bag, cylinder first with
gauge facing mesh. Reference Accessory photo, (pg. 13).
