Power Interrupt Alarm
If the device is turned on but not operating, the alarm condition will be activated. This
is often the result of either the oxygen concentrator not being plugged in or a power
failure. This feature is powered by an internal 9V battery.
To test the condition of the battery you should test this alarm state often by
unplugging the device and turn the power switch on. If the alarm condition is not
activated, you should contact your home care provider to replace the battery. If the
device shuts down because of a power failure, turn the power switch off for two
minutes before restarting to allow the system to depressurize itself.
Operating Condition Indicators and Alarms
•
Power: The GREEN indicator illuminates when the device is turned on.
•
Normal Oxygen (Model M10605 only): The extra GREEN indicator illuminates
when the device is delivering a normally expected percentage of oxygen. The
illumination of this indicator is delayed for several minutes after start up to
allow the system to stabilize.
•
Low Oxygen: The YELLOW indicator illuminates continuously* to alert the
user when some corrective action is required. Following the troubleshooting
guide in this manual, this action can normally be performed by the user. Call
your home care provider if the troubleshooting actions fail to end this alert
condition.
•
Alarm: The RED indicator illuminates continuously and the audible alarm
sounds continuously if the device detects a system malfunction. If this
happens when the device is plugged in, you should turn off the device and call
your home care professional immediately.
* Units may have intermittent RED indicator and sound an audible alarm
accompanying the YELLOW indicator under a Low Oxygen condition.
