SECTION 6—OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS SECTION 6—OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Introduction Oxygen concentrators were introduced in the mid‐1970’s to provide supplemental oxygen to those in need. Oxygen concentrators separate nitrogen from air to create a high concentration oxygen gas output. Until now, the size and weight of traditional oxygen concentrator’s have limited their portability. The XPO2 delivers a pulse flow of oxygen in a lightweight package that can be easily carried and used away from home.
SECTION 6—OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Location WARNING NEVER block the air openings of the product or place it on a soft surface, such as a bed or couch, where the air opening may be blocked. Keep the openings free from lint, hair and the like. Keep unit at least three inches away from walls, draperies, furniture, and the like. Locate and position the XPO2 in a well ventilated space so that the air intake and the air exhausts are not obstructed.
SECTION 6—OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Power Supplies WARNING Use only Invacare specified power supplies with the XPO2 portable concentrator. Use of other non approved power supplies with the XPO2 can cause damage and/or injury and will void the warranty. NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 6.1.
SECTION 6—OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS DC Power Adapter: A DC power adapter allows the XPO2 to be connected to an automobile’s (boat, motor home, etc.…) 12‐volt DC outlet. Use of the DC power adapter will allow the XPO2 to be operated and simultaneously recharge the internal battery. This DC power adapter can also be used to recharge the supplemental battery pack. Refer to Charging the Batteries on page 22. Supplemental Battery Pack: The XPO2 can be powered by a supplemental battery pack.
SECTION 6—OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Checking Charge Level of Internal Battery NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 6.2. NOTE: Perform this procedure after charging the batteries and prior to using the XPO2 for the first time and prior to any subsequent use to ensure the internal battery is fully charged. 1. Turn On the XPO2 by pressing and holding the On/Off button. 2. Press and hold the battery status button located on the keypad.
SECTION 6—OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Charging the Batteries Charging the Internal Battery NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 6.3. 1. To charge the internal battery, do one of the following: • Connect the AC power adapter (if charging from a wall outlet) to the input power connector located on the side of the unit and then plug the other end of the power adapter into the power source.
SECTION 6—OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Charging the Supplemental Battery Only NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 6.4 on page 24. 1. Connect the AC (Detail “A”) or DC (Detail “B”) power adapter to the supplemental battery pack. 2. Connect the other end of the AC (Detail “A”) or DC (Detail “B”) power adapter into the appropriate power source. NOTE: If completely discharged, the supplemental battery will fully charge in approximately 3 to 4 hours.

SECTION 6—OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Battery Time Management Time away from home is almost limitless by combining the use of the AC power supply, DC power supply and the XPO2 batteries. To ensure the batteries maintain their optimal charge level, utilize the AC power supply whenever you have access to electric power. Utilize the DC power supply whenever you are in a vehicle. Prolonging XPO2 Battery Life NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 6.6.
SECTION 6—OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Don’ts • DO NOT use or leave the XPO2 or supplemental external battery in excessive heat or cold. • DO NOT store or leave the XPO2 or supplemental external battery in car trunks, etc. for extended periods of time. • DO NOT store either battery fully charged (4 bars illuminated on the unit’s battery gauge) if you are going to store your XPO2 for any time greater than 2 weeks. Recharge or discharge the battery to 2 bars (50% charge) only.
SECTION 6—OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Powering the XPO2 NOTE: Both the internal and supplemental battery require full charging prior to first use. Refer to Charging the Batteries on page 22. NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 6.7 on page 29. 1. The XPO2 allows the freedom to choose from the following power sources: • The internal battery. The XPO2 comes equipped with an internal battery that is installed at the factory and is not user serviceable. • The supplemental battery pack.
