How to Operate Inogen One G4 Portable Oxygen Concentrator?

1. Place the Inogen One G4 in a well ventilated location. Air intake and exhaust must have clear access. Locate the Inogen One G4 in such a way that any auditory alerts may be heard. Always operate the Inogen One G4 in an upright position.


2. Ensure particle filter is in place. Do not operate the Inogen One G4 without the particle filter in place. Particles drawn into the system may damage the equipment.


3. Install the battery. Insert the Inogen One G4 battery by sliding battery into place until the latch returns to the upper position.


4. Connect the Power Supply. Connect the AC input plug to the power supply. Connect the AC power plug to the power source and connect the power output plug to the Inogen One G4. The green LED on the power supply will be illuminated and a beep will sound from the concentrator.
5. Connect the nasal cannula tubing to the nozzle fitting. Nozzle fitting is located on the top of the Inogen One G4. Use of a single lumen cannula up to 25 feet in length is recommended to ensure proper breath detection and oxygen delivery. Additional titration may be needed to ensure proper oxygen delivery when using a particular cannula.


6. Turn on your Inogen One G4 by pressing the ON/OFF Button. A single short beep will sound after the Inogen logo is displayed. “Please Wait” will appear while the portable concentrator starts up. The display will indicate the selected flow setting and power condition. Following a brief start-up sequence, a warm up period up to 2 minutes will initiate. During this time period the oxygen concentration is building to but may not have reached specification. Additional warm up time may be needed if your Inogen One G4 has been stored in extremely cold temperatures.
7. Set the Inogen One G4 Concentrator to the flow rate prescribed by your physician or clinician. Use the + or – setting buttons to adjust the Inogen One G4 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. Inogen One G4 will sense the onset of inhalation and deliver a burst of oxygen at a precise time when you inhale. The Inogen One G4 will sense each breath and continue to deliver oxygen in this manner. As your breathing rate changes, the Inogen One G4 will sense these changes and deliver oxygen only as you need it. 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.
