3 Operating / 4 Miscellaneous

NOTES

- A larger amount of aerosol remains on the mucosa of the nasal

pharynx when using the mask resp. the nose adaptor than when

using the mouthpiece.

- Once you have used the mouthpiece for a certain time, several

drops of inhalant solution may gather in the attachment pipe.

However, this does not affect the operation and function of the

device. Wipe off the drops with a soft cloth after use.

Cleaning and

maintenance

Follow the below steps for cleaning and disinfection before first use, after

each use and if the device has not been used for a longish period of time

(approx. 4 weeks). G

Cleaning

Make sure that the unit is switched off and the power plug is unplugged

from the outlet. G

Remove the air tube from the nebulizer kit and disassemble the ne-

bulizer kit. Empty out any residue in the nebulizer tank. In order to help

reduce water pollution, do not dispose of the medication residue in the

waste water system. Wipe it up with tissues and dispose of the tissues

with non-recyclable waste. G

Rinse all parts of the nebulizer kit with warm water (approx. 40°C) and

some detergent. Afterwards rinse all parts with warm water (approx.

40°C without any detergent) again. The nebulizer parts now need to be

disinfected - please refer to the chapter "Disinfection". G

Clean the compressor case with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use any

aggressive substances for cleaning, such as scouring cream or other

detergents, as these may damage the surfaces. G

Finish

inhalation

After terminating the inhalation, switch off the device by pressing the ON /

OFF switch ("O"), even if you have not used up all the inhalant. g

Pour out the rest of the inhalant. Do not use it again. Clean the device

immediately after each use (also refer to "4.1 Cleaning and maintenance").



Disinfection

Before disinfecting the nebulizer parts, follow the steps under "Cleaning"

To disinfect, you can use alcohol or other common alcohol-based dis-

infectant sprays. Make sure that no disinfectant residues are left behind

on the attachments to ensure safe inhalation when next used. G

Allow all parts to dry thoroughly for about 4 to 5 hours. Additionally the

nebulizer unit should be agitated several times to remove remaining

drops of water. G
