The device can also be operated with two 1.5 V AA batteries, which can
be inserted by removing the cover at the bottom of the casing.
Used batteries are environmentally harmful. Only dispose of them at
designated collection sites, do not throw away.
USING THE NOSE CLEANING DEVICE:
We distribute the nose-cleaning device with two types of probe head.
• We recommend the probe head with the cone end for general use. With
this device the nasal cavity can be cleaned thoroughly. Sit the baby up in
your lap. Place the nose-cleaning probe in one of the child's nostrils. The
join of the nostril and probe should be airtight and you should block the
other nostril with your finger. If you place the probe into the nostril
correctly, mucus should appear in the probe within a few seconds. You
should perform this operation on both nostrils.
• The nose probe with the silicon tube with a collar is for the suction of
visible (fluid or clotted) mucus. Sit the baby up in your lap. Place the nose
cleaning probe in the nostril in such a way that the end of the short silicon
tube with the collar should reach into the mucus. The mucus will appear
in the probe within a few seconds. You should perform this operation on
both nostrils.
WARNING: The probe with the silicon tube with the collar must not be
pushed all the way into the nostril, because it may cause discomfort to the
baby, or might injure the nostril.
After successful nose cleaning you should cut the current off by turning it
off, then unplugging the adapter from the socket. Pull the silicon tube
attached to the pump off the suction stub. In case of fault or abnormal
operation turn device off and unplug adapter from mains.
CLEANING THE NOSE PROBE:
Pull silicone tube off the nose probe. Wash both ends of the probe in a
detergent solution, rinse thoroughly, then sterilise by boiling for 30
minutes.
