Important
Essential oils, cough syrups, gargling solutions and
drops to be used as a rub or in a steam bath are wholly
unsuitable for inhalation using a nebuliser. These addi-
tives are often viscous and can impair the correct func-
tioning of the device and therefore the effectiveness of
the application in the long term. For individuals with a
hypersensitive bronchial system, medications contai-
ning essential oils may under certain conditions cause
an acute bronchospasm (a sudden cramp-like restric-
tion of the bronchi with shortness of breath). Consult
your doctor or pharmacist in relation to this matter.
6.7 Stopping inhalation
Once the mist is only coming out in an irregular flow
or if the sound changes when inhaling, you can stop
the treatment.
• Switch off the nebuliser after treatment using the On/
Off switch [2] and disconnect it from the mains.
• Place the atomiser [8] back in its holder [6] after the
treatment.
6.8 Nasal douche
The nasal douche is not included in delivery [not availa-
ble = n/a] with the IH 26 Kids.

(Starting the application)
You can use the nasal douche to clean your nasal ca-
vities. The nasal douche creates a fine jet of liquid for
treating respiratory tract problems or for moistening
the nasal mucous membranes.
We recommend using the nasal douche for colds, dry-
ness inside the nose, dust exposure, pollen allergies,
chronic inflammation of the sinuses or upon the advice
of your doctor.
Warning
• Do not use the nasal douche in combination with
other medication or essential oils.
Important
• Only use the nasal douche with isotonic saline solu-
tions.
• Replace the nasal douche after a year.
The maximum volume of the nasal douche is 10 ml. If
you are unsure about the correct dilution of the saline
solution, please consult your pharmacist.
