 Clinic System

•  During therapy, the patient should be in a sitting or lying position and should not move excessively.
•  Position the device on a horizontal surface and keep it stationary during use.
•  Position the device where free ventilation is guaranteed. Do not block the air supply nor the air 

flow..

•  Ensure that a sufficient amount of water is available in the humidification chamber at all times 

during use.

•  Humidity performance can be compromised when used outside the recommended ambient tempe-

rature and humidity range.

•  Use authorized, originally packed and unexpired components only.
•  Follow the hygiene rules in order to gain the best potential benefits from the therapy. See chapter 4. 

Reprocessing.

•  Check the connection between the applicator tube connector and the patient interface for strong 

hold.

Warnings

•  Do not use the device in a potentially explosive or easily flammable environment!
•  Do not smoke or use open fire if a supplemental oxygen source is in use!
•  Keep a min. distance of 1m to other electrical devices when using oxygen!
•  Do not let children play with the hoses or cables to prevent injuries such as strangulation or swallo-

wing of small parts!

•  Do not reach into the housing directly after use since inner parts such as the heating plate and the 

bottom of the humidifier might be hot!

•  Do not cover the device nor the applicator during use!
•  Position the device where it cannot fall into water!
•  Disconnect the power supply and discontinue use if water enters the housing or escapes from the 

humidification chamber!

•  Disconnect the power supply and discontinue use if the device has been dropped or damaged!
•  If the power cord or plug damaged, disconnect the power supply and discontinue use!
•  Do not use damaged applicators!
•  Do not connect unauthorized components to the power socket!
•  Ensure that the characteristics of the local power supply correspond to the requirements of the TNI 

softFlow system. See the device’s name plate and chapter 5.1 Product specifications!

•  Do not supply any gases other than oxygen via the lateral oxygen inlet port!
•  Do not use the TNI softFlow system in MRI environments, near HF surgical equipment or in other 

environments where the intensity of the EM disturbances is high!

•  If existing, do not remove the protective caps from the accesses below the carrying handle!  The 

accesses are intended exclusively for maintenance purposes. Before commissioning, ensure that the 

connections are tightly closed by the protective caps!
