The nasal plug has a small opening that creates a
defined resistance when breathing.
Make sure that the nostril is not completely blocked (e.g.
by pressing closed with a finger) because this could cre-
ate too much resistance.
• Position the nasal joining piece of the nebuliser against the
free nostril so that the nostril is closed tightly.
• Close your soft palate (as described).
• Switch the compressor on.
WARNING! Danger of death by electrocution from a
faulty device!
If the device has a fault, a person may come
into contact with live parts, resulting in the danger of electric
shock, for example. Switch the compressor off and discon-
nect the power plug from the mains socket immediately if a
fault is suspected (e.g., following a fall or if there is a smell
of burning plastic).
The aerosol is automatically delivered to the paranasal si-
nuses.
Make sure that the nostrils vibrate gently for the entire period of
treatment.
After about 2.5 minutes, carry out the treatment as described
for a further 2.5 minutes on the other nostril. The treatment is
complete after 5 minutes in all.
If you experience an unpleasant sensation of pressure in the
ears - which can arise during the treatment - make the hole in
the nasal plug larger (or do not press the free nostril closed so
firmly):
• Push out the inside of the
nasal plug and cut off the tip at
the edge indicated using a pair
of scissors.
