Safety When Using Oxygen
Build-up and transfer of high pressure to the
patient is prevented as excess oxygen is vented
to the atmosphere over the outlet valve.
If the reservoir bag remains flat during the whole
ventilation cycle, it is a a visual indication that no
or little supplemental oxygen is being provided.
When oxygen supply is insufficient, adequate
ventilation volume is ensured by intake of ambient
air through the Inlet valve.
In the presence of high oxygen concentrations
there is danger from smoking or naked flames. Oil
or grease must not be used with the resuscitator.
Warnings
This Oxygen Kit should only be used by persons
who have received sufficient training in its use.
Incorrect operation of the Oxygen Kit can be
hazardous.
Do not use the Oxygen Kit if you have any reason to
be concerned about its functionality.
