Thank you for purchasing the NE-C101.
This product was developed in conjunction with respiratory therapists 

for the successful treatment of asthma, chronic bronchitis, allergies 

and other respiratory disorders. 

This is a medical device. Operate the device only as instructed by 

your doctor and/or respiratory therapist.

How the nebulizer kit works

The medication that is pumped up 

through the medication channel is 

mixed with compressed air which is 

generated by a compressor pump. 

The compressed air mixed with 

medication is turned into fine particles 

and sprayed when in contact with the 

baffle.

•  Do not use a microwave oven, dish dryer or hair dryer to dry the device or the parts.

•  Do not use an autoclave, EOG gas sterilizer or low temperature plasma sterilizer.

•  When disinfecting parts by boiling, make sure that the container does not boil dry. 

Otherwise it may also result in a fire.

General Safety Precautions:

•  Inspect the device and parts before using them each time, and check that there are 

no problems. In particular, be sure to check the following:

- That the nozzle or air tube are not damaged.

- That the nozzle is not blocked.

- That the compressor operates normally.

•  When using this device, there will be some noise and vibration caused by the pump in 

the compressor. There will also be some noise caused by the emission of compressed 

air from the nebulizer kit. This is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.

•  Operate the device only as intended. Do not use the device for any other purpose.

•  Do not use the device at temperatures greater than +40°C.

•  Make sure that the air tube is securely attached to the compressor and nebulizer kit, 

and does not come loose. Twist the air tube plug slightly when inserting it into the air 

tube connectors to avoid the air tube disconnecting during use.

•  To completely isolate the device from the power source unplug the plug from the 

power source.

•  Using the device longer than the standard operating time for which it was designed 

may result in accidents such as fire or injury due to deterioration over time.

Keep these instructions for future reference.
