Warning:
In order to avoid res, oxygen must not come into contact with oil or grease. It is therefore essenal to ensure that

cleaning, repairs and maintenance.
While the device is in operaon on a paent, no cleaning, maintenance or repairs may be performed on the
medin-NC3® – including all points listed in chapter 9.
