F.  CLEANING YOUR PARI REUSABLE 

NEBULIZER

1.  Disconnect the tubing from the air intake on the 

bottom of  the nebulizer cup.

2.  If  there is any moisture (condensation) in the tubing, 

let the compressor run with only the tubing attached 
for 2-3 minutes. The warm air from the compressor 
will dry out the tubing. Alternatively, you can dry 
the tubing by removing it from the compressor and 
hanging it up with the “ends down” to allow any 
moisture (condensation) to drain out and evaporate. 
Use a clean damp cloth to wipe the exterior of  
the tubing.

3.  Disassemble reusable nebulizer parts as illustrated 

on page 3.

4.  Wash all parts with warm water and liquid dish soap. 

DO NOT WASH THE TUBING.

5.  Rinse the reusable nebulizer parts thoroughly with 

warm water and shake out water.

6.  Air dry or hand dry nebulizer parts on a clean, lint-free 

cloth. Reassemble nebulizer when parts are dry 
and store.

7.  You can also wash all parts of  the reusable nebulizer 

on the top shelf  of  a dishwasher. DO NOT WASH 
TUBING. Place the reusable nebulizer parts in a 
dishwasher basket, then place the basket on the top 
rack of  the dishwasher. Remove and dry the parts 
when the dishwasher cycle is complete.

WARNING

TO REDUCE RISK OF INFECTION:

1.  Nebulizer for single patient use (one person) only. Do 

not share your nebulizer with other patients.

2.  You must regularly disinfect or sterilize the nebulizer 

between treatments. Failure to do so could lead to 
serious or fatal illness.

REMEMBER

 REPLACE YOUR REUSABLE NEBULIZER CUP EVERY SIX MONTHS

E. TIMESTRIP

®

It is very important to replace your PARI reusable nebulizer 
every 6 months for the most effective treatments. 
Timestrip

®

 is a visual indicator that makes it easy for you to 

remember when to replace your nebulizer. 

Activating Timestrip

®

:

 Firmly squeeze the PARI bubble 

between your fi nger and thumb. You may need to squeeze 
it more than once to ensure all the liquid has been emptied 
from the bubble.

Verify Activation:

 A red line will appear in the small circle of  

the Timestrip

®

 within 1 to 2 minutes, indicating activation. 

If  you do not see the red line after 3 minutes, press the 
bubble again.

Attach to compressor:

 Remove the adhesive tab on the back 

of  the Timestrip

®

 and attach the Timestrip

®

 to the front of  

your compressor as indicated in Section C. IMPORTANT – 
DO NOT ATTACH Timestrip

®

 to your NEBULIZER CUP.

Replace Nebulizer:

 When you see the word NOW appear 

in the window (Fig. E), you know it’s time for a new PARI 
reusable nebulizer! Contact your home healthcare provider 
or pharmacy to order your new PARI reusable nebulizer.

WARNING

The Timestrip may present a choking hazard to small 
children – adult supervision is required.

Timestrip

®

 does not monitor the condition of the PARI reusable nebulizer. Timestrip

®

 

only records the passage of time after it is activated. If activated at the time of fi rst 
using the PARI reusable nebulizer then it will serve as a reminder that the PARI reusable 
nebulizer can be replaced.   

The liquid inside the Timestrip

®

 is not toxic.  If tampered with, the Timestrip

®

 may leak 

and will not function properly. If the liquid comes into contact with the skin wash with 
soap and water.  If the liquid comes into contact with eyes rinse immediately with water 
for 15 minutes. If irritation develops, seek medical attention.
