Setting Inhalation Time (per breath)
The inhalation time defines the time for one inhalation (without expiration).
Your health care provider will usually determine the optimal inhalation time for you by a lung function
test. The best way to test this is by a test inhalation with the AKITA JET Inhalation System with your
health care provider.
Your health care provider can individually adjust the inhalation time with the "vol." key.
You may change the inhalation time setting any time that your lung function has changed (such as
during illness or infection).
