Model 1000 User Manual
This section of the manual provides warnings and cautions that apply to hazards or
unsafe practices that could result in personal injury or property damage.
Oxygen Therapy Safety
“Read Instruction Manual”: DO NOT operate this oxygen system
without first reading and understanding this manual. If you are unable
to understand the warnings and instructions, contact your authorized
SeQual dealer/provider before attempting to use this oxygen system.
“Caution or Attention”: In certain circumstances, oxygen therapy can
be hazardous; therefore, it is advisable to seek medical advice before
using the oxygen system.
DO NOT deviate from prescribed flow rates. Adjust the flow only to your prescribed
flow rate, unless otherwise instructed by your physician.
WARNING “No Smoking or Naked Flames”: The use of oxygen therapy requires
that special care be taken to reduce the risk of fire. Oxygen enhances
the combustion of flammable material. For safety concerns, all possible
sources of ignition must be kept away from the oxygen system and
preferably out of the room in which it is being used. Smoking in the
proximity of an operating oxygen concentrator is dangerous, and
can permanently damage the device and void the warranty.

NG “Use No Oil or Grease”:
A spontaneous and violent ignition may
occur if oil, grease or other petroleum substances come into contact
with oxygen under pressure. Keep these substances away from the
oxygen system, tubing and connections and any other oxygen source.
DO NOT use any petroleum based or other lubricants.
