There's no need to hurry back home, this powerful backup essential has no limitations to its power allowing you to operate your portable oxygen concentrator at all pulse flow rates. The 8-cell battery pack lasts up to 8 hours (at setting 2) and the 16-cell battery pack lasts up to 16 hours (at setting 2).
So go see that movie or sit down to eat the slice of cake that’s been screaming your name through the bakery windows, because the Caire FreeStyle™ Comfort Battery has you covered.
The FreeStyle™ Battery Pack will recharge anytime it is installed in your FreeStyle™ Comfort while it is connected to an external power source, or by using an optional desktop charger. Recharging your battery typically takes 3.5 hours for a single battery, and 6 hours for your extended battery.
View your charge easily by using the FreeStyle™ Comfort display. When charging, the battery icon will show a plug indicator to confirm that it is being charged. While in use it will provide you with the estimated time remaining on your battery.
Note: Your Freestyle Comfort must be off and disconnected before installing or removing your battery.
BATTERY PACK
The FreeStyle Comfort can be operated by the re-chargeable battery pack which is supplied with the device. There are no operational limitations of the concentrator when running from the battery pack. All flow rates are available on battery power.
INSTALLING THE BATTERY
Align the battery with the bottom housing from the center of the FreeStyle Comfort. Push the battery inward until you hear a click to confirm that it has locked in place.
REMOVING THE BATTERY
Push the battery release button downward away from the FreeStyle Comfort. While HOLDING this button, slide the battery out by pulling it away from the concentrator.
WARNING: THE OXYGEN CONCENTRATOR MUST BE OFF AND DISCONNECTED FROM EXTERNAL POWER BEFORE REMOVING THE BATTERY PACK.
CHECKING BATTERY PACK CHARGE
