EO-150 Car lighter DC cable (Ref EO-CARCBL) - Instructions for use
Instability of the DC power electrical system of a car might lead to severe damage of the
ventilator when the car engine is started or stopped while the device is connected. Therefore
patients / care givers should strictly notice the following :
➢ When the EO-150 ventilator is intended to be connected to the DC power supply system
of a car, the engine “Auto START & STOP function” must be deactivated.
➢ Start the car prior plugging in the Car lighter DC cable into the socket in the car.
➢ Unplug the Car lighter DC cable from the socket in the car prior stopping the engine of
the car.
➢ If the Car lighter DC cable (Ref: EO-CARCBL) is damaged or the connector does not show
the correct contact arrangement don’t use it. In such case, use the EO-BAT9 external
battery as additional power source.
➢ In case of any doubt about the stability of the DC power supply system of the car or lack
of information from the car manufacturer, EOVE recommends to use for ventilator
dependent patients the EO-150 Ventilator with the EO-BAT9 external battery as external
power source.
