NOTE:
Occasionally the nozzle that directs the
steam into the extension tube may become
obstructed . If the Steam Inhaler begins to
produce a significanty smaller amount of steam
or no steam at all, the nozzle needs to be
cleaned. To clean the nozzle, remove the cover
from the Steam Inhaler. Firmly grasp the nozzle
and twist clockwise to remove,
Fig. 7.
Insert a
fine gauge needle or the pin which is stored
under the bottom of the Steam Inhaler into the
nozzle to clear the airway,
