party instructions for use accompanying the pulse oximeter and
oximeter sensor for additional warnings and cautions.
 Warning: The Nonin wrist band is single patient use only. The wrist band may be
cleaned, refer to 3rd party instructions for use accompanying the pulse oximeter
for cleaning instructions, but after cleaning the wrist band should only be applied
to the same patient, not to a different patient.
The Nox A1 recorder can communicate with an auxiliary Bluetooth® pulse oximeter for recording of
oxygen saturation levels (SpO
2
), pulse rate, and plethysmography data.
Refer to the “Compatible Sensors and Devices” section regarding the types of pulse oximeters and
sensors that are supported by the Nox Sleep System.
Inserting Batteries into the Nonin 3150 Pulse Oximeter
Refer to the 3
rd
party accompanying instructions regarding replacement of batteries when using the
Nonin 3150 pulse oximeter.
 Note: Single use batteries last up to 48 hours of use so it is important to track the
number of measurements made with the Nonin 3150 pulse oximeter. It is
recommended to change the batteries after 2-3 recordings depending on the
quality of the batteries being used.
 Note: If you are using rechargeable batteries, it is recommended that you replace
