Please be careful when handling fire during home oxygen therapy.

Updated: May 12, 2023

Due to concerns about an increase in the number of fires caused by the use of fire, such as smoking, during the use of oxygen concentrators, liquefied oxygen devices, and oxygen cylinders used for home oxygen therapy, please pay close attention to the following items.
(1) While inhaling high-concentration oxygen, if you bring fire such as cigarettes close, tubes and clothes may catch fire, causing severe burns and house fires.
(2) When using an oxygen concentrator, etc., do not place fire within 2m around the device. Never smoke, especially while inhaling oxygen.
(3) If you pay attention to the handling of fire and use it correctly according to the instruction manual, oxygen will not burn tubes, clothes, etc., or cause a fire. Please inhale oxygen to.
[To prevent fire]
・Never smoke while using an oxygen inhaler.
・While using an oxygen inhaler, do not bring fire close to the inhaler or use fire nearby.
・Be careful not only of yourself, but also of people around you when using fire.
