INOGEN AT HOME

The particle filter, located on the side of the unit, must be cleaned weekly to ensure proper airflow and prevent internal heat buildup. To clean it, remove the filter, wash it with a mild liquid detergent (like Dawn™) and water, rinse thoroughly, and let it completely air dry before reinstalling. Operating the device with a dirty or wet filter can shorten its lifespan or cause it to shut down.

 This high-priority alarm (flashing red light and five beeps) indicates the unit has exceeded its safe operating temperature. You should immediately ensure the air intake and exhaust vents have at least 6 inches of clear space from walls or furniture and check that the particle filter is clean. Turn the device off, allow it to cool for 10 minutes, and then attempt to restart it. If the alarm continues, switch to your backup oxygen source and contact your equipment provider.

To set it up, place the humidifier bottle in the designated holder on the unit and connect it to the oxygen outlet nozzle using the appropriate humidifier connector tubing. Always refill the bottle with distilled water and never attempt to refill it while it is still attached to the concentrator to avoid accidental spills.
