6. GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
The product provider must ensure that, where appropriate, all users of this
device are provided with the user manual.
WARNING Do not use the product without proper self-training by reading this manual. If you need additional information after reading this user manual, please contact your equipment provider.
Always inspect the device and its components for any sign of damage before use.
WARNING Do not use the device or any component that shows any sign of damage.
Important: While the box or packaging may exhibit some damage, e.g., tears or
dents, the device may still be in a usable condition. If the device or any
accessory shows any sign of damage, contact your home oxygen provider.
Before you get started, check to make sure you have the following:
· Concentrator · Battery · Carry bag · AC power supply · DC power cable ·
Nasal Cannula (purchased separately)
6.1 OPERATING PRINCIPALS This device works by separating oxygen from air using
a pressure swing adsorption (PSA) process. Normal air consists of 21% oxygen;
this device increases the amount of oxygen up to 96% by removing the nitrogen
and concentrating the output of oxygen. To accomplish this, air is pulled into
the device through a small air compressor, nitrogen is separated from the
oxygen and finally, the oxygen is collected and delivered to the patient on
each breath.
Because the oxygen you breathe comes from your immediate environment, it is
very important to keep your device clean. Although there are many filters
built into the device, exposing your device to dirty and dusty environments
will reduce the life of the filters causing them to need to be replaced more
often.
The device maintains the following as essential performance requirements
without the need for recurrent testing:
1. Alarm condition when the delivery of oxygen, in both normal and single
fault conditions, is not within the performance levels as indicated in this
manual.
2. Technical alarm condition when there is a power supply failure. 3.
Technical alarm condition when the battery nears depletion. 4. Technical alarm
condition when the oxygen concentration is below 82% volume fraction. 5.
Malfunction technical alarm condition. 6. The delivery of an oxygen dose, in
normal condition or an indication of abnormal operation.
6.2 PREPARING YOUR CONCENTRATOR FOR USE IMPORTANT: Make sure you have a backup
oxygen supply in addition to this portable oxygen concentrator.
What is your back up oxygen supply?
___ DO NOT USE with a
humidifier, nebulizer, CPAP or in series or parallel with any other device. DO
NOT USE near flames, smoke or anything flammable DO NOT USE near pollutants,
smoke, fumes, flammable anesthetics, cleaning agents or chemical vapors. DO
NOT USE in environments where your concentrator could become submerged in
water.

· The `please wait’ icon ( ) will appear while the concentrator powers up.
· The display will indicate the current flow setting and power condition.
· Following a brief start-up sequence, a warmup 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 device has been stored in extremely cold temperatures.
2. Check your concentrator’s battery level
· Once your concentrator has started up fully, the display light will turn off.
· At this time, you will see a battery percentage appear on the screen where the `please wait’ icon ( ) was previously.
· If the battery is low, connect your concentrator to an external power supply, as described in 6.2 step 3 or switch it out for a fully charged battery.
· If the battery has been removed, go back to section 6.2, step 2, “Install the Battery” for steps to re-install the battery.
3. Set your concentrator’s flow setting
· Set the flow setting as prescribed by your physician or clinician.
3
· Use the + or setting buttons to adjust to the desired setting.
· The current setting can be viewed on the display next to the settings symbol .
IMPORTANT: It is normal to hear a difference in sound as you change the flow setting.
Set your concentrator to flow settings prescribed by your doctor. The flow
rate is prescribed by your physician; it is a “dose” of oxygen. Too high or
too low a rate may eventually lead to harm.
4 4. Use your concentrator
· Position the nasal cannula below your nose with the small tubes directed upward into your nose and loop the tubing snuggly around your ears per the cannula manufacturer’s instructions.
· Breathe through your nose. Your concentrator will sense the onset of inhalation and deliver a burst of oxygen at a precise time when you inhale. The device will sense each breath and continue to deliver oxygen in this manner. As your breathing rate changes, it will sense these changes and deliver oxygen as you need it.
· A green light will flash each time a breath is detected.
Continue to make certain the nasal cannula is properly aligned on your face and you are breathing through your nose.

three beeps, repeated every 25 seconds and will have a flashing yellow light.
When this alarm is triggered, the concentrator will begin to deliver pulses of
oxygen at a rate of 20 boluses per minute. When the audible no-breath-detect
alarm is OFF, the concentrator will respond the same way when no breath is
detected for 60 seconds BUT the repeating 3 beeps will not be produced.
Whether the no-breath-detect mode is on or off, it does not impact the alarm
functionality of any other device alarms or notifications.
Important: The alarm system is tested during the startup sequence. You should
see all alarm lights briefly turn on and the audible alarm indicator chirp. If
alarms are suspected of misoperating, contact your distributor for
verification that alarms are working correctly.

7.5 ALARMS
The device monitors various parameters during operation and utilizes an
intelligent alarm system to indicate a malfunction of the concentrator.
Mathematical algorithms and time delays are used to reduce the probability of
false alarms while still ensuring proper notification of an alarm condition.
If multiple alarm conditions are detected, the highest priority alarm will be
displayed. Note that failure to respond to the cause of an alarm condition
potentially will result in discomfort or reversible minor injury only (e.g.,
reduced oxygen supply or a burn). In case of an alarm, seek to address the
issue and/or switch to a backup source of oxygen.
WARNING Audible alarms are to warn the user of problems. To ensure that audible alarms may be heard, the maximum distance that the user can move away from it must be determined based on the surrounding noise level. Make sure the device is in a location where the alarms can be heard or seen if they occur.
The following section provides a listing and description of every possible
alarm condition. The alarm system is intended to notify an operator while
wearing the device in a shoulder bag or while the device is set down within
range of an acceptable nasal cannula.
If the power plug is removed when a battery is connected, the alarms will work
normally. If there is no battery or the device is not connected to AC or DC
power, the alarms will not activate because there is no power. With the
battery connected, a power loss lasting less than 30 seconds will have no
effect on the alarm system.
IMPORTANT: If multiple alarm conditions are detected, the highest priority
alarm will be displayed.
IMPORTANT: Failure to respond to the cause of an alarm will result in
discomfort or reversible injury only (e.g. reduced oxygen supply or a burn).
In case of an alarm, seek to address the issue and/or switch to a backup
source of oxygen.

The device maintains a patient accessible alarm log that allows for the last
alarm to be accessed and viewed on the LCD (except for the no-breath-detect,
check cannula, battery low / attach plug and battery empty / attach plug
alarms). The alarm log is retained in memory after the device experiences a
total loss of power. To access the alarm log, ensure the concentrator is
plugged and turned off. Then hold the plus (+) button for 5 seconds.
Alternatively, the alarm log can be found in the Advanced Tab of the Inogen
Connect App under Error Recall.
Once a new alarm is activated the new alarm overwrites the previous alarm. The
alarm log is retained in memory after the device is powered down. The time
elapsed since the error occurred is displayed with the last alarm on the alarm
log. The device also maintains a service and repair alarm log that is not
accessible by the patient.
