  If the DeVilbiss Medical Equipment unit isn't operating, all lights are off, and an audible alert is pulsing, first ensure the power cord is properly inserted into the wall outlet. For 230-volt units, check the mains connection on the back. If it still doesn't work, check your home circuit breaker and reset it if needed. If problems persist, try a different wall outlet. Also, check the oxygen concentrator circuit breaker and reset it if necessary by pressing the reset button located below the power switch. If these steps don't resolve the issue, contact your DeVilbiss provider.
