5.3 Preparation
• Detach the tubing from the nebuliser.
• Make sure that all medication residues are removed from
the nebuliser.
• Dismantle the nebuliser into its individual parts.
• Carefully pull the blue expirat-
ory valve out of the slot in the
mouthpiece. The valve must
still be attached to the mouth-
piece.
• Rinse all components of the nebuliser under running tap wa-
ter. This must be done especially thoroughly if cleaning and
disinfection are not carried out straight away.
5.4 Cleaning and disinfection
Generally, a mechanical process (instrument dishwasher)
should be used for cleaning and disinfection.
NOTICE
When selecting the cleaning agent and/or disinfectant, en-
sure that it is compatible with the materials used,
otherwise
damage to the product components
cannot be ruled out.
Information when using masks with rubber bands:
The rubber band can only be disinfected chemically, not
thermally as it might be damaged by the high temperatures
used.
