3. With the tips of the cannula pointing downward and toward you, place
the two tips into your nostrils. Run the tubing over your ears and then
slide the sleeve up under your chin until the cannula feels comfortable
(Figure 7). Then breath normally.

CAUTION
You must use a dual-lumen cannula of 2.1 meter length or
shorter (see page 31) to ensure proper oxygen delivery from
the Portable unit. Make sure both connections of the dual-
lumen cannula are firmly attached to the Portable Oxygen
Outlet and Sensor connectors
.
NOTE:
Make sure that the tips remain in your nostrils and do not slide to one side.
NOTE:
Ocassionally water droplets caused by exhaled humidity may accumulate in the
cannula. This may disrupt the operation of the oxygen conserving device. If this happens,
replace the moist cannula with a dry one. Allow the moist cannula to dry before using it again.
NOTE:
Currently, there are two lumen cannula designs available for use with the HELiOS. One
cannula provides sensing and delivery of oxygen in each nostril. This is the best one to use
when experiencing a blocked nasal passage. The other provides oxygen from one side and
senses when to provide oxygen on the other. Also, the tips are slightly smaller and softer.
