naked sources of fl ame.
1. Press the power switch to the “On” position, when the unit is turned on, the power light will illuminate, and the patient
alert system – “Service Required” light and audible signal — will briefl y alarm.
Note!
• If the “Service Required” light illuminates and the audible signal alarms but the unit is not operating, there
is no power to the unit, refer to the Minor Troubleshooting chart not page 12 and contact EICKEMEYER® if
necessary.
• If an audible low-frequency vibration sound is detected, the unit is not operating properly. Refer to the Minor
Troubleshooting chart on page 12, and contact EICKEMEYER® if necessary.
2. Check the fl ow meter to make sure that the fl ow meter ball is centered on the line next to the prescribed number of your
fl ow rate.
Caution!
It is very important to follow your oxygen prescription. Do not increase or decrease the fl ow of oxygen-consult
your physician.
Note!
• EICKEMEYER® may have preset the fl ow meter so that it can not be adjusted.
• If the fl ow meter knob is turned clockwise, the fl ow decreases (and eventually will shut off the oxygen fl ow).
If the knob is turned counterclockwise, the fl ow increases.
The OxyVet IV Oxygen Concentrator monitors the oxygen produced by your unit. When the units is turned “ON”, all four light
(Power, Low Oxygen, Normal Oxygen, and Service Required) on the front panel will illuminate briefl y. After a few seconds, only
the Power and Normal Oxygen lights will remain lit.
The lights on the front panel are defi ned as follows:
• Green Normal Oxygen light-acceptable oxygen level (the LED will display “Normal Oxygen”)
• Yellow Low Oxygen light-below an acceptable oxygen level (the LED will display “Low Oxygen”)
If the oxygen purity falls below the acceptable level, the green Normal Oxygen light will shut off and the yellow Low Oxygen
light will illuminate. Switch to your reserve oxygen system. Refer to the Troubleshooting section in this guide on page 12 and
contact EICKEMEYER®.
As an added safety feature should the oxygen purity continue to drop, an intermittent audible signal will sound. Contact
