10 Inogen One® G3 portable concentrator
Battery charging.
When out and about, your Inogen One® G3 device
operates from battery power which will discharge
over time. You therefore need to monitor the device’s
battery status and keep it charged up as required
(the device display indicates the estimated remaining
percentage (%) or minutes of available use).
When the concentrator detects that battery life
is low (<10 mins remaining) a low priority alert
will sound. When the battery is empty, the alert
changes to a high priority. When battery life is low,
do one of the following:
→ Plug the Inogen One® G3 into an AC or DC power
source using the AC power supply or DC cable.
→ Replace the battery with a charged battery after
turning off the Inogen One® G3 (by pressing
the ON/OFF button). To remove a battery, press
and hold the battery latch button and slide the
battery away from the concentrator.
→ If the battery is drained, charge the battery or
remove it from the concentrator.
→ If the Inogen One® G3 is being powered by the
AC power supply or DC power, batteries will
charge during operation.
→ Note: leaving your Inogen One® G3 device
plugged in past full charge will not harm the
concentrator or battery.
To ensure your battery is properly charging, use
the correct AC or DC power cables and check that
the display shows a battery-charging symbol (see
p12 for examples). To take care of your device, only
use Inogen One® G3 batteries as supplied by BOC
Homecare.
Always:
→ Store device batteries in a cool, dry place.
→ Keep liquids away from batteries. If batteries
become wet, discontinue use immediately and
dispose of the battery properly.
→ If using multiple batteries, make sure that each
battery is rotated-for-use on a regular basis.
Batteries should not be left dormant for more
than 90 days at a time.
