planned or unexpected loss of the AC or DC external power supply. When operating

the Inogen One® G3 from an AC or DC external power supply, a properly inserted

Inogen One® G3 battery should be maintained in the unit. This procedure will ensure

uninterrupted operation and will operate all alarms and alerts in the event of a loss of

the external power supply.

NOTE The Inogen One® G3 Battery requires an initial full charge of uninterrupted charging

from an empty state using the Inogen One® G3 on the AC power source. Do not run

the Inogen One® G3 on battery power until this initial charging has been completed.

Once the initial charge is completed, the battery may be used with any amount of

charge level.

4. Connect the Power Supply.

Connect the AC Power plug to the Power Supply. Connect the AC Power Plug to the power source and

connect the Power Output Plug to the Inogen One® G3. The green LED on the Power Supply will be

illuminated and a beep will sound from the concentrator.CAUTION Ensure the Power Supply is in a well ventilated location as it relies on air

circulation for heat dissipation. The Power Supply may become hot during

operation. Make sure the Power Supply cools down before handling.

CAUTION The Power Supply is not water resistant.

CAUTION Do not disassemble the Power Supply. This may lead to component failure

and/or safety risk.

CAUTION Do not place anything in the Power Supply port other than the supplied wall

cord. Avoid the use of electrical extension cords with the Inogen One® G3. If an

extension cord must be used, use an extension cord that has an Underwriters

Laboratory (UL) Mark and a minimum wire thickness of 18 gauge. Do not connect any

other devices to the same extension cord.

period the oxygen concentration is building to but may not have reached specification. Additional warm

up time may be needed if your Inogen One® G3 has been stored in extremely cold temperatures.

7. Set the Inogen One® G3 Concentrator to the flow rate prescribed by your physician or clinician.

Use the + or

– setting buttons to adjust the Inogen One® G3 to the desired setting. The current setting

can be viewed on the display.

8. Position the nasal cannula on your face and breathe through your nose.

The Inogen One® G3 will sense the onset of inhalation and deliver a burst of oxygen at a precise time

when you inhale. The Inogen One® G3 will sense each breath and continue to deliver oxygen in this

manner. As your breathing rate changes, the Inogen One® G3 will sense these changes and deliver

oxygen only as you need it. At times, if you inhale very quickly between breaths the Inogen One® G3 may

ignore one of the breaths, giving the appearance of a missed breath. This may be normal as the Inogen

One® G3 senses and monitors the changes in your breathing pattern. The Inogen One® G3 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 Inogen One® G3 is designed to provide a flow of high purity oxygen. An advisory

alarm, “Oxygen Low”, will inform you if oxygen concentration drops. If alarm persists,

contact your equipment provider

Traveling By Air The information stated in this section is pending FAA Approval.

The FAA allows the Inogen One® G3 onboard all U.S. aircraft, here are a few points to make air travel easy

.

Planning your Flight

When flying with the Inogen One® G3, you must inform the airline that you will be using your Inogen One®

G3 onboard the aircraft. You must also keep a signed statement from your physician with you that

includes:

• Your ability to see/hear alarms and appropriately respond.

• When oxygen use is necessary (all or a portion of the trip).

• Maximum flow rate corresponding to the pressure in the cabin under normal operating conditions.• A new statement will not be necessary each time you fly, but the statement should be available during

every flight.

• Some airlines may equip their aircraft with onboard electrical power. You may have an opportunity to

request a seat with a power port which can be used to power your Inogen One® G3. However, availability

varies by airline, type of air cr af t and class of service. You should check with your airlines for availability and

always plan on having sufficient battery power for the duration of your flight, plus a conservative estimate

of unanticipated delays.

• The DC power cord is equipped with a commonly used cigarette lighter adapter. However, aircrafts use

different power port configurations and it is difficult to determine which type of power port compatibility

your aircraft may supply; it’s a good idea to purchase an adapter such as Magellan’s Em Power Socket

Connector Item #EA270. Contact Magellan’s at 800

‐ 962

‐ 4943 or visit www.magellans.com for a store

location near you or purchase options online.

Before your Flight

Here are some things to keep in mind the day your flight departs:

• Ensure your Inogen One® G3 is clean, in good condition and free from damage or other signs of

excessive wear or abuse.

• Bring enough charged batteries with you to power your Inogen One® G3 for the duration of the flight plus

a conservative estimate of unanticipated dela y s.

• R egional/ C ommuter airlines do not offer onboard electrical po w er

. If your travel plans call f or flights on

regional airlines, you will need sufficien t battery power for the duration of the fligh t, plus a conservative

estimate of unanticipated dela y s.

CAUTION Airlines may not be equipped to provide backup oxygen.

• Arrive at the airport early. Airport security screening personnel may require extra time to inspect your

Inogen One® G3.

• While waiting to board your flight, you may be able to conserve battery power by using the AC Power

Supply to power your Inogen One® G3 from an electrical outlet in the airport terminal if available.

• You should inform the airline you will be using your Inogen One® G3. Have your physician letter with

you and ready for inspection if requested.During your Flight

1. If using airline power port, remove the Battery from the Inogen One® G3 Oxygen Concentrator. Due to

aircraft power limitations, the AC Power Supply cannot be used to charge the Inogen One® G3 Battery when

onboard aircraft.

2. Connect the DC Power Plug for available airline power. Check with airline personnel to ensure

compatibility.

• During taxi, takeoff and landing, stow your Inogen One® G3 under the seat in front of you. Your Inogen

One® G3 will fit upright under most airline seats. However, if it doesn’t fit you may turn it on its side.

• It is not necessary to turn off your Inogen One® G3 during taxi, takeoff and landing if your physician’s

written statement requires you receive oxygen during these periods.

CAUTION A change in altitude (for example, from sea level to mountains) may affect total oxygen

available to the patient. The Inogen One® G3 has been verified to provide oxygen to

specification up to 10,000 ft (3048 m). Consult your physician before traveling to higher or

lower altitudes to determine if your flow settings should be changed.

After your Flight

• Remember to recharge additional batteries you may have used prior to your next flight

.
