USING YOUR NEBULIZER
Before the first use of the nebulizer or if the unit has not been used for an extended period of
time, it should be cleaned thoroughly as described in the
Cleaning and Disinfection section
of this manual.
The patient receiving treatment should be seated or slightly reclined in a comfortable position
as treatments take several minutes. Keep in mind that the nebulizer cup must remain vertical
during treatment.
1. Place the compressor unit on a flat, stable surface within operating range of the patient
and an electrical outlet. Ensure that the air vents on the side of
the unit housing are not blocked or obstructed.
2. Plug the power cord into the electrical outlet.
3. Attach one end of the air tube to the tube connector at the back
of the unit, Fig. 1. Turn on the power briefly to ensure that the
unit is functioning properly and test that air is coming through
the tubing, then turn the power off.

Disposable Nebulizer (INCLUDED)
Depending upon the individual treatment program, the disposable
nebulizer should last approximately 2 weeks. Worn out or
cracked nebulizers can affect the particle size, compromising the
effectiveness of the medication delivery.
Reusable Nebulizer (NOT INCLUDED)
Depending upon the individual treatment program, a reusable
nebulizer should last approximately 6 months of once-daily use.
A reusable nebulizer must still be cleaned after each use and
inspected for cracks or other imperfections before each use.
