8. Position the nasal cannula on your face and breathe through your nose.
The OxyGo FIT® will sense the onset of inhalation and deliver a
burst of oxygen at a precise time when you inhale.The OxyGo
FIT® will sense each breath and continue to deliver oxygen in
this manner. As your breathing rate changes,the OxyGo FIT® will
sense these changes and deliver oxygen only as you need it.At
times,if you inhale very quickly between breaths the OxyGo FIT®
may ignore one of the breaths,giving the appearance of a missed
breath.This may be normal as the OxyGo FIT® senses and monitors
the changes in your breathing pattern.The OxyGo FIT® will
normally sense the next breath and deliver oxygen accordingly.
A green light will flash each time a breath is detected.Make certain that the nasal
cannula is properly aligned on your face and you are breathing through your nose.
WARNING If you begin to feel ill or are experiencing discomfort while using
this device,consult your physician immediately.
CAUTION The OxyGo FIT® is designed to provide a flow of high purity oxygen.An
