leave the nasal cannula or mask on bed coverings or chair cushions. If
the oxygen concentrator is turned on, but not in use, the oxygen will make the
materials flammable. Turn the oxygen concentrator off when not in use to
prevent oxygen enrichment.
SMOKING DURING OXYGEN THERAPY IS DANGEROUS
and is likely to
result in facial burns or death.

where the oxygen concentrator or any oxygen carrying accessories are
located. If you intend to smoke, you must always turn the oxygen
concentrator off, remove the cannula and leave the room where the oxygen
concentrator is located. If you are unable to leave the room, you must turn
the oxygen concentrator off and remove the cannula before smoking.
