WARNINGS (CONT’D)
•
A physician must prescribe use of a humidifier with the Millennium. Use of only bubble type
humidifiers is recommended and connections must be secure and free of leaks.
•
If the Millennium Oxygen Concentrator has been subjected to hot or cold temperatures for an
extended period of time, it should be allowed to warm up to the stated operating temperatures
before power up. Failure to do so could result in improper performance and or alarm conditions
until the unit reaches normal operating temperatures.
•
Do not turn on the unit while any filter is wet or moist.
CAUTIONS
•
U.S. federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.
•
Place the unit where cooling airflow is unrestricted. Be sure to inform the user not to position the
unit close to drapery or curtains that might restrict the airflow.
•
When using a liquid leak detector, be careful not to allow it to contact electrical parts.
•
Make sure connections of fittings, tubing, and hoses are secure.
•
Be cautious when using thread sealants because they can cause extensive damage to the
internal parts of the unit if allowed within tubing or fittings.
•
Device operation above or outside of the Voltage, LPM, Temperature, Humidity and /or Altitude
values specified in the manual may decrease oxygen concentration levels.
•
Clean all exterior cabinet surfaces periodically by wiping with a damp cloth, using a mild detergent
and/or hospital disinfectant.
•
If the 25-foot tubing, connector, and high flow cannula supplied with the Millennium M10 Oxygen
Concentrator are not used, 10 LPM of oxygen flow may not be achieved.
•
Use only Respironics or factory-authorized replacement parts and accessories.
NOTES
•
Make sure the Flow Meter is set at the patient’s prescribed flow rate once patient circuitry is
attached.
•
Make sure there are no kinks in the user’s oxygen tubing. If necessary, use a non-kink style
delivery tube (unit will go into an audible and visual alarm if the tubing is kinked or the flowmeter is
turned completely off).
