Maintenance / Cleaning 

 

Medication Cup:  

Cleaning: 

It is very important to wash out the Med Cup after each use to avoid contamination or damage 

of the metallic vibrating mesh. Protect the electrical connector from getting wet when cleaning by using 

the protective cap provided. To clean out the Med Cup open up the soft blue Cap and place 2-3 drops of 

mild dishwashing liquid  (

do not use dishwasher detergent

) into the Cup and fill with distilled water. 

Close the soft blue Cap and shake the Cup vigorously for about 15 seconds and squeeze the soft Cap to 

push water through the mesh whilst shaking. Open the Cap and rinse out from both sides with distilled 

water. Shake off excess water and let air dry before re-use.

 

Disinfection: 

To disinfect the outside surfaces of the Med Cup use anti-bacterial wipes. 

CAUTION: 
Do not immerse the Med Cup in water or cleaning chemical solutions! 
Do not nebulise or put chemical cleaning solutions inside the Cup as they may permanently 

damage the metallic mesh or reduce its life!

 

Do not use sharp instruments to clean the metallic mesh in the Med Cup!

 

For continuity of treatment it is highly recommended to carry spare Med Cups!

 

 

Mask:  

Cleaning: 

The Mask can be

 

washed using clean warm tap water with some dish washing up liquid.  

Rinse off with warm clean tap water and dry off before re-use.

 

Disinfection: 

First disassemble all parts of the Mask and wash them thoroughly with clean warm tap 

water and dish washing up liquid. Rinse the parts off and let them air dry on a clean dry surface.  

Disinfect each part by wiping down thoroughly with anti-bacterial wipes

 

before re-assembly. 

Alternatively the Mask parts can be soaked in Nortev approved disinfectant chemicals.  

Refer to separate information sheet or 

www.nortev.com

 for details on recommended disinfectants.
