6.4 Mask
Please consult the latest instruction manual before using the mask and / or
outlet system.
6.5 Oxygen intake
Oxygen should be introduced via an additional item of equipment close to the
mask.
The following points must be borne in mind regarding oxygen therapy:
-
In oxygen therapy the oxygen concentration inhaled is
dependent on:
Breathing pattern
Amount of oxygen supplied
Pressure setting
Mask system
Leakage
-
If oxygen is supplied, the therapy device must deliver air to prevent
oxygen from getting into the device.
-
If using oxygen therapy, check the surrounding area for ignition
hazards.
There is a risk of fire if released oxygen gets
into the device or comes into contact with hot
objects.
The oxygen intake must be at the end
of the hose system.
