Portable o2 precautions
- Avoid** bumping/dropping** the bottle.
- ** No ignition sources within four (4) m**etres of oxygen equipment.
- Avoid contact between oxygen equipment and oils or grease (remove recipient’s make-up before administering oxygen).
- When administering oxygen to a passenger, the bottle must be secured, to prevent movement and possible injury during turbulence or other unanticipated aircraft movement. This can be achieved by securing the bottle to the seat frame using two Infant/Extension seat belts.
- When cabin crew are required to fit an oxygen bottle while moving around the cabin, i.e. during post-decompression follow-up duties, fit the carry strap over the head and shoulder to ensure the bottle is secure (strap diagonally across the body). Keep the cylinder to the front of the body so the gauge can be monitored.
