Start-Up: A brief audible beep sounds at start-up when Power is pushed.
Release Power as soon as the tone sounds. Pressing Power for extended time
after the audible beep will cause the system to cycle back to the off position.
The LifeChoice POC will not power on if the cannula is being moved or
inserted in the nasal passages during start-up.
Low Battery Alarm: As the internal battery power approaches a low level
(less than10 minutes of battery power remaining), the green LED light next
to the Battery Check turns red and flashes slowly. There is also an
audible long, loud beep that will sound once every 65 seconds. When this
occurs, connect the LifeChoice POC to a DC power outlet, an AC power
outlet, a fully charged external battery, or change to another source of
oxygen immediately.
When there is approximately 10 seconds of battery power remaining, the red
LED light above the Battery Check that was slowly flashing will begin
flashing quickly, and a fast audible beep will sound, after which the unit will
shut off. When this occurs, connect the LifeChoice POC to a DC power
outlet, an AC power outlet, a fully charged external battery, or change to
another source of oxygen immediately.
When the LifeChoice POC is connected to a DC power outlet or to an
AC power outlet, the unit operates while recharging the internal battery
simultaneously. The level of battery charge is indicated by disconnecting
the LifeChoice POC from the AC or DC adapters while powered on
and pressing Battery Check. The battery charge indicator LED lights are
for reference only. If a fully depleted internal battery is not charged for a
minimum of 4 hours, it will not supply 2+ hours of use.
No Inhalation/No Breath Alarm: When the LifeChoice POC is powered
on but does not sense breathing within a predetermined time period,
approximately 75 seconds, an audible alarm beeps and the red LED light
next to Alarm flashes. If this occurs, check the connection from the cannula
to the LifeChoice POC, make sure that the nasal cannula is positioned
properly on your face and ensure that you are breathing through your nose.
Once the system detects a breath, the alarm will automatically turn off. If
the alarm continues to sound, change to an alternate source of oxygen, and
contact your equipment provider.
General Malfunction Alarm: If the LifeChoice POC has a general
malfunction, a continuous audible alarm sounds, and the red LED light
next to Alarm will continuously illuminate. When this occurs, the
concentration of oxygen that LifeChoice POC is supplying is outside of
specifications. You should change to another source of oxygen and
contact your equipment provider.
