WARNINGS
- This is a medical device (compliant with Dir. 93/42/EEC) and may only be used with
medication prescribed or recommended by a doctor. Before using the accessories, con-
sult the instruction manual of the device. It is important that the patient reads and
understands the information on how to use the device and the nebulizer. Contact your
retailer or nearest service center for any questions.
- When used very frequently, we recommend that the nebuliser be replaced every 6
months (or earlier if it becomes clogged), in order to guarantee the maximum thera-
peutic effect.
- Children and disabled persons should always use the nebulizer under strict supervision
of an adult who has read this manual.
- The nebulizer contains small parts that may be swallowed by children; keep therefore
the nebulizer out of the reach of children
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Before each utilisation, wash your hands accurately and clean the device as described
in the paragraph “CLEANING, SANITISATION, DISINFECTION AND STERILISATION”.
The nebuliser cup and accessories are for personal use only to avoid potential risks of
transmitting infection.
During application it is advisable to suitably protect yourself from any dripping.
1. Insert the nozzle (11.2) in the upper part (11.3) pressing as shown by the 2 arrows in the
"Connection diagram" in point 11. Insert the Speed selector with valve (11.4) in the upper
part (11.3) as shown in the "Connection diagram" in point 11.
2. Pour the medication prescribed by the doctor into the lower part (11.1). Close the nebu-
liser by turning the upper part (11.3) clockwise.
3. Connect the accessories as shown in the “Assembly diagram”. Sit down in a comfortable
position holding the nebulizer in your hand, place the mouthpiece over your mouth or
use the nasal prong, the face mask, or the Baby mask set.
4. Start the device (see its instruction manual). Inhale gently and deeply; after inspiration
we recommend to hold your breath for a moment in order to allow inhaled aerosol drop-
lets to deposit. Then, exhale slowly.
5. Upon completing application, switch off the device and unplug it.
ATTENTION: If after the therapy session an evident deposit of moisture forms within the
pipe (10), detach the pipe from the nebuliser and dry it with the very ventilation from the
compressor; this operation prevents possible blooms of mould inside the pipe.
