8.2. Boarding and In-flight Information

8.2.1. Carry-on baggage
Your Zen-O lite™ POC is an assistive device. In this case, carriers shall not, in implementing
their carry-on baggage policy, count the Zen-O lite™ POC toward a limit on carry-on items
brought into the cabin by a qualified individual with a disability.
IMPORTANT: A bag with additional batteries that is required to power the Zen-O lite™ POC during
the flight could also be considered an assistive device. However, there are restrictions on the Watt
EN
Hour (Wh) rating of the battery which is limited to 100Wh per battery. For your Zen-O lite™ POC,
the Watt Hour (Wh) rating is less than 100Wh per battery maximum, therefore no limitation will
be imposed.
8.2.2. Zen-O lite™ POC as Checked Baggage
Your Zen-O lite™ POC may be carried on aircraft as a carry-on or as checked baggage. How-
ever, spare lithium batteries are prohibited from being carried in checked baggage on an
aircraft.
8.2.3. Considerations Regarding Placement and Stowage of your Zen-O lite™ POC
In order for a Zen-O lite™ POC to work efficiently, the air/intake vents must not be blocked
during use. Therefore, the area around the Zen-O lite™ POC should be clear of blankets, coats,
and other pieces of carry-on baggage that may block the air/intake vents. If the air/intake
vents are blocked, two things will occur. First, you will be alerted by warning lights and/or
audible alerts that the oxygen concentration in the Zen-O lite™ POC output is insufficient.
Second, when the temperature of the Zen-O lite™ POC internal components increases to a
certain limit because the Zen-O lite™ POC is still trying to dispense oxygen, the Zen-O lite™
POC will automatically shut down to prevent overheating of the Zen-O lite™ POC and you will
be alerted by warning lights and/or audible alerts.
Placement of Zen-O lite™ - Onboard an aircraft the Zen-O lite™ POC should be placed un-
derneath the seat in front of you so that you or the flight attendant can see the warning
lights and/or hear the audible warning. Placement directly under your seat and placement in
a closed compartment would prohibit you from seeing the warning lights, as well as possibly
prohibiting you from hearing audible warnings. Other placement locations may be accept-
able as deemed acceptable by the flight attendant.
8.2.4. Seating Restrictions for Passengers who Plan to use a Zen-O lite™ POC On Board an
Aircraft
Exit Row Seating - The FAA prohibits passengers that use any assistive device including Zen-
O lite™ from occupying an exit seat.
Stowage during Aircraft Movement - During movement on the surface (pushback from the
gate and taxi), take-off, and landing, the Zen-O lite™ POC must be stowed properly and in
such a manner that it does not restrict passenger access to any exit or the aisle in the pas-
senger compartment. Additional seating restrictions may be necessary to comply with these
