5. To begin your treatment, sit in a relaxed, upright position. Press and
hold the On/Off button for one second (Figure 17). You will hear one

6. After a few seconds, aerosol mist will begin to flow into the Aerosol
Chamber.
7. Place the Mouthpiece on top of your bottom lip and tongue, and close
your lips around it (Figure 18). Hold the Trio Electronic Nebulizer level.

30 seconds. If this occurs, hold the Trio Electronic Nebulizer level and
press the start button to complete the treatment.
8. Take slow, deep breaths in and out through the Mouthpiece. Each
breath should be a little deeper than normal, quiet breathing, but not
to your full capacity. Do Not breathe through your nose. Continue to
inhale and exhale comfortably until the treatment is finished.

a. You will hear the “Treatment Complete Alarm” (2 beeps and
2 green lights).

press and hold the On/Off Button for one second. A 1 beep alarm will

On/Off Button for one second and then resume the treatment.
