Disinfection
Please carefully observe the points below when disin-
fecting your atomiser and accessories. We recommend
disinfecting the individual parts on a daily basis after the
last usage as a minimum measure.
(All you need for this is a little white vinegar and distilled
water.)
• First, clean the atomiser and accessories as described
in the “Cleaning” section.
• Place the disassembled atomiser, mouthpiece and
nosepiece in boiling water for 5 minutes.
• For the remaining accessories, use a vinegar solution
consisting of ¼ vinegar and ¾ distilled water. Make
sure that the volume is sufficient to fully submerse the
parts, such as the atomiser, mask and mouthpiece, in
the solution.
• Leave the parts in the vinegar solution for 30 minutes.
• Rinse the parts with water and dry them carefully with
a soft cloth.
Important
Do not boil or autoclave the compressed air hose or the
masks.
• Put the parts together again when they are completely
dry and place them in a dry, sealed container.
Note
• Please ensure that the parts are completely dried af-
ter cleaning, otherwise the risk of bacterial growth is
increased.
• Use cold disinfection solution in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
Drying
• Place the individual parts on a clean, dry and absor-
bent surface and leave them to dry completely (at least
4 hours).
Durability of materials
• As with any plastic parts, atomisers and their accesso-
ries are affected by a certain amount of wear and tear
when used and hygienically prepared on a frequent ba-
sis. Over time, this can lead to a change in the aerosol,
which can have a negative effect on the efficiency of the
treatment. We therefore recommend that you replace
the atomiser and other accessories after a year.
• The following point should be observed when selecting
the cleaning product or disinfectant: only use a mild
cleaning product or disinfectant in the concentration
and volume prescribed by the manufacturer.
Storage
• Do not store in damp conditions (such as in a bathroom)
and do not transport with any damp items.
• When storing and transporting, protect from prolonged
direct sunlight.
• The accessories can be stowed securely in the ac-
cessory compartment. Store the device in a dry place,
ideally in the original packaging.
9. Disposal
For environmental reasons, do not dispose of the
device in the household waste.
Please dispose of the device in accordance with
EC Directive –
WEEE
(Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment). If you have any questions, please contact
the local authorities responsible for waste disposal.
10. Troubleshooting
Problem/
question
Possible cause/remedy
The atomiser
produces no
or too little
aerosol.
1. Too much or too little medication
in the atomiser.
Minimum: 2 ml,
Maximum: 6 ml.
2. Check nozzle for blockages.
Clean nozzle if necessary (e.g. by
rinsing out). Then start using the
atomiser again.
IMPORTANT:
Carefully pierce the
fine holes from the underside of the
nozzle only.
3. Atomiser not held vertically.
