NOTE
Under certain conditions (see Technical Specifications) the power
supply may shut down. The green LED will blink or will no longer be
illuminated. If this occurs, disconnect the power supply for at least 10
seconds and reconnect.
NOTE
When the power supply is disconnected from the AC outlet,
also disconnect it from the concentrator to avoid unnecessary
battery discharge.
5. Connect the nasal cannula tubing to the nozzle fitting.
Nozzle fitting is located on the top of the OxyGo FIT®.
Use of a single lumen cannula up to 25 feet in length is
recommended to ensure proper breath detection and oxygen
delivery. Additional titration may be needed to ensure proper
oxygen delivery when using a particular cannula.
CAUTION
To ensure oxygen flow, ensure that the nasal cannula is properly connected to the
nozzle fitting and that the tubing is not kinked or pinched in any way.
CAUTION
Replace the nasal cannula on a regular basis. Check with your equipment provider or
physician to determine how often the cannula should be replaced.
6. Turn on your OxyGo FIT® by pressing the ON/OFF Button.
A single short beep will sound at start up and "Please Wait" will appear
while the concentrator starts up. The display will indicate the selected
flow setting and power condition. Following a brief start-up sequence,
a warm up period up to 2 minutes will initiate. During this time period
the oxygen concentration is building to but may not have reached specification.
Additional warm up time may be needed if your OxyGo FIT® has been stored
in extremely cold temperatures.
7. Set the OxyGo FIT® Concentrator to the flow rate prescribed by your physician or
clinician. Use the + or – setting buttons to adjust the OxyGo FIT® to the desired setting.
The current setting can be viewed on the display.
