WARNING
Risk of death or serious injury
The oxygen flow rates shown here and on the label on the back of the incubator
cannot be used as an accurate indication of oxygen concentrations in the incubator.
These rates should only be used as a guide.
► Measure oxygen concentrations with a calibrated oxygen analyzer at intervals
directed by the attending physicians.
WARNING
Risk of death or serious injury
If their ignition temperature is reached, violent ignition of oil, grease, greasy
substances, small particles or dust, dirt, or other particulate contaminants, even
small particles of metal, could occur in the presence of high-pressure oxygen.
► Take care when using high-pressure oxygen, such as that found in medical
oxygen cylinders.
1 Make sure all fittings and connections for the supply oxygen are clean.
2 Administer oxygen from a wall source or the accessory oxygen cylinder on the
incubator trolley. Refer to the current edition of Guidelines for Perinatal Care of
the American Academy of Pediatrics (The American College of Obstetricians
and Gynecologists).

(A) using 3/16-inch inner diameter surgical hose.

An oxygen concentration guide is provided. This guide is also displayed on a label
on the back of the incubator.
