• Zen-O™ owner's manual information regarding expected duration of battery power.
IMPORTANT: You should never rely upon available onboard aircraft electrical power during a flight.
• Air carrier requirements to carry a certain amount of batteries are typically available on each
airline's web site.
IMPORTANT: Air carriers may require you to bring enough batteries to power the device for at least
150% of the expected maximum flight duration.
8.1.4. Documentation
EN
You are responsible for the operation of the Zen-O™ POC on board the aircraft. For this reason,
the FAA recommends that passengers carry with them, at minimum, this User Manual and
any other written information provided by your healthcare professional regarding the Zen-
O™ POC and its use.
8.1.5. Physician´s Statement
An air carrier may require a medical certificate from a passenger with a disability if there is rea-
sonable doubt that the individual can complete the flight safely without requiring extraordi-
nary medical assistance during the flight. Also, an air carrier may require a medical certificate
from a person who needs medical oxygen during a flight. The FAA does not require passen-
gers to obtain a physician's statement and present such statement to the operator or pilot in
command (PIC) prior to Zen-O™ POC use on board the aircraft.
8.1.6. Spare Batteries
Battery damage and battery short circuit can result in battery overheating and fire. These
events, in turn, can result in personal injury to passengers, and in the worst case for certain
types of batteries, a catastrophic passenger compartment fire. Thus, spare lithium batteries
carried on board aircraft must be individually protected from short circuit by placement in
original retail packaging, by taping over exposed terminals, or by placing each battery in a
separate plastic bag / protective pouch.
IMPORTANT: Spare lithium batteries are prohibited from being carried in checked baggage on an
aircraft.
You are responsible for ensuring that all spare batteries carried in carry-on baggage are prop-
erly packaged. Zen-O™ POC equipment providers, some airlines, and freight forwarders spe-
cialising in small package shipments may provide this packaging service for you.
