3) Place the device on a flat surface.
4) Place the atomisation chamber on the main unit and press it
slightly downwards until a “click” is heard (fig. 1). Open the cover
of the atomization chamber by pulling towards outside the small
hook. The capacity of the nebulization chamber is 8 cc. Pour the
drug paying attention not to exceed the maximum capacity, (the
indications are born on the chamber itself), in order to prevent the
liquid from flowing out and penetrating into the device itself dam-
aging it (fig. 4).
Furthermore, carefully follow the instructions for use and dosing of
the product used. If this product has to be diluted with an isotonic
solution of sodium chloride, pour first of all the solution in the neb-
ulization chamber and then add the product dosing it as indicated.
Caution! It is possible to use the device only if the drug has
been poured into the nebulization chamber!
5) Close the atomization chamber with the proper cover, paying at-
tention to hook it correctly. Place the device cover in such a way
as to seal the aerosol therapy device; the cover must close on both
connection points by clicking.
6) Now, insert the mouthpiece or the connection and the mask for
adults/children in the atomization dispenser according to figures
2 and 3.
In case of inhalation with the mouthpiece:
In case of
disorders of the lower respiratory tract, i.e. cough or bronchial in-
fections, use the mouthpiece.
• Sit upright.
• Insert the mouthpiece in the atomisation supplier.
• Tighten the mouthpiece well with the lips.
• Inhale slowly and deeply through the mouth and exhale through
the nose. To increase the efficacy of the therapy, hold your breath
for a while after having inhaled. During the treatment, remain
quiet and relaxed. Breathe regularly and not too quickly. If you
wish to interrupt the inhalation shortly, remove the mouthpiece
from the mouth and then reinsert it.
Caution!
During inhalations using the mouthpiece, some medicinal product
may deposit within the same. In this case, it is suggested to proceed
as follows after the treatment:
1. disconnect the mouthpiece from the atomisation supplier paying
attention not to let any medicinal product come out.
2. re-position the medicinal product previously deposited in the
mouthpiece within the atomisation chamber.
3. perform the inhalation of the residual medicinal product, if
greater than 0.5 cc.
In case of inhalation with mask:
The mask for inhalations is suitable for the treatmentof the nasal
and pharyngeal area.
• Sit upright.
• Insert the mask connection between the atomizer and the mask
and then connect both parts.
• Keep the mask lightly pressed against the nose; the mask has to
cover mouth and nose without squashing them.
• Inhale and exhale slowly and deeply through the nose. To in -
crease the efficacy of the therapy, hold your breath for a while
after having inhaled. During the treatment, remain quiet and re-
laxed. Breathe regularly and not too quickly. If you wish to inter-
rupt the inhalation shortly, remove the mask for a while and then
place it again on nose and mouth.
8) Switch on the device by pressing the ON/OFF key.
Make sure that the warning light is on (light blue color). During
inhalation, it is possible to bend the device up to a max. angle of
45° forwards, backwards or on the side without jeopardizing the
nebulization.
However, it is not recommended to shake a device with full neb-
ulization chamber, in order to avoid damages due to any eventual
penetration of liquids into the device. Immediately interrupt the
treatment, if you feel uneasy during the procedure.
9) The appliance is equipped with an automatic switchoff device
that disables the appliance when the medicinal product runs out.
Switch off the appliance in any case when the atomisation flow is
null. Do not try to switch on the appliance, if the medicinal product
has run out, since this may cause damages. It is possible to switch
off the appliance at any time, by pressing the ON/OFF switch.
Important:
• An inhalation treatment may last more than 40 minutes. In any
case, end the inhalation after maximum 40 minutes by pressing
the ON/OFF switch even if the medicinal product has not been
completely used. Let the appliance cool for at least 15 minutes
and then switch on the appliance again.
• As in the majority of the devices for aerosol therapy, at the end
of the inhalation, a given quantity of drug (about 0.2 ml) will re-
main in the nebulization chamber: this is quite normal.
This quantity of drug, also called residual volume, cannot be
nebulized.
10) Let the device cool down for some minutes, turn the device
upside down or use an absorbing cloth to remove the residual liq-
uid and perform the cleaning procedures according to paragraph
“Cleaning and maintenance”.
Caution:
• Do not try to switch on the device, if the drug has run out, since
this may cause damages.
• If the charge of batteries is low, the device switches off auto -
matically after short time, also when in the atomization chamber
there is still some drug for inhalation.
• Batteries charge diminishes also when the device is not used;
therefore, remove batteries, if the device is not used for long
periods.
• Do not dispose exhaust batteries as ordinary waste, but use ex -
clusively the special battery waste containers.
The atomisation chamber is a consumable and its useful life de-
pends on many factors: Time of use, use with more or less oily
medicinal products, as well as correct maintenance and cleaning
of the same after each use.
The atomisation chamber can be used for 500 times or for a period of
use with a standard therapy equal to 1 year.
USE WITH TRANSFORMER FOR OPERATION THROUGH MAINS (NOT
