WARNING! Danger of side effects!
If side effects or severe limitations of well-being occur during therapy, a doctor
should be consulted immediately.
Under certain circumstances, long-term oxygen therapy can be dangerous.
Before using the Kröber O2, seek medical advice.
To ensure a therapeutic amount of oxygen delivery according to your medical
condition, Kröber O2 may only be used,
- after one or more settings have been individually determined or specified
according to your activity level,
- Only use in the specified combination with parts and accessories that comply
with the manufacturer's specification and have been determined when
determining your settings.
WARNING! Fire hazard caused by oxygen!
Oxygen is vital, but in concentrators with only a few percentage points above the
normal oxygen content in the air it is a highly dangerous fire accelerant. There
are only a few materials which will not burn off like an explosion under a raised
concentration of oxygen.
Therefore:
– Oxygen may only be handled by trained or specially instructed persons!
– Follow all mandatory instructions for installing and use of fire-reducing
equipment such as the angular connector and Firesafe
TM
check valve.
– The misuse of oxygen, e.g. to cool down or improve the ambient air, to cool
down and dust or blow off of persons, clothes, furniture etc. is dangerous
and therefore prohibited!
– Smoking during oxygen therapy is dangerous and may cause burns to the
face or even death. Oxygen has a strong fire-supporting effect. Never
smoke when using your oxygen concentrator or near a person undergoing
oxygen therapy. Smoking while wearing nasal cannulas can cause oxygen
fires, which can lead to a fire in the tube and ultimately in the oxygen
device. For this reason, smoking is not permitted in the same room as the
oxygen concentrator or oxygen-carrying accessories.
If you wish to smoke, you must always switch off the Kröber O2, remove
the nasal cannula and leave the room where either the nasal cannula or the
mask or the oxygen concentrator is located. If you are unable to leave the
room, wait at least 10 minutes after turning off the oxygen concentrator
before smoking.
– There is a risk of fire associated with the enrichment of oxygen during
oxygen therapy. Do not use the oxygen concentrator and its accessories
near sparks or open flames.
