!Caution: Only use type and amount of medications as prescribed
and instructed by your doctor.
1. Slightly tilt the unit as illustrated in the fi gure.
In this position, the vibrator is immersed in the
medication and nebulisation will start after power on.
After the vibrator has been immersed in the medication,
the unit can be used under any angle.
!Caution: In some positions (e.g. upright), nebulisation may
stop after a short while. In that case, briefl y tilt the unit again
in order to re-immerse the vibrator in the medication.
2. Place the mouthpiece in your mouth or place the mask over
mouth and nose.
Always be calm and relaxed when you inhale. Breathe in slowly and
deeply so that the medication can reach deep in to the bronchial
tubes. Hold your breath briefl y, then breathe out slowly while
removing the mouthpiece from your mouth. Do not breathe too
quickly. Pause when you feel like having a rest.
You may synchronise the nebulisation with your inhalation/exhalation
cycles by using the unit in ‘manual nebulisation mode’. Refer to page
14.
Note:
If high-
viscosity
medication is used, nebulisation may be reduced.
If excessive medication collects on the mesh, nebulisation may
stop. In that case, turn off the power and remove the mask adapter.
Absorb the medication by means of a lint-free cloth.
!Caution: Do not poke the mesh with a cotton swap or a pin; the
mesh may be permanently damaged.
