NOTE
During a normal field maintenance visit, the technician may elect to turn
off the concentrator for approximately 30 minutes. If the patient requires
oxygen during this period, Inogen recommends making arrangements
to bring an extra oxygen supply.
3.1.4. System Inspection
At the start of any maintenance visit:
1. Be sure to ask the patient if they have experienced any difficulties in operating
the equipment.
2. Be sure to ask the patient if they have observed any malfunctions or changes
in characteristics of the equipment.
3. Visually inspect the device and accessories for cracks or other damage.
4. Feel the sides of the device for vibration and listen for unusual noises, rattles,
or other signs that the device requires service.
CAUTION
Discovery of cracks or other types of external damage may be
indicative of other internal damage that may not be visible. If such
external damage is discovered, be certain to inquire as to how it
occurred, and whether any changes in the device have been
noticeable since its occurrence. If you have any concern over the
safety of the device, arrange for equipment servicing.
