G. MAINTENANCE OF YOUR VIOS
NEBULIZER SYSTEM
FILTER
Your Vios air filter is bright white when new. With use,
®
the filter will slowly turn grey, indicating the need for
replacement. The filter must be replaced immediately if it
gets wet or becomes clogged. A good rule to follow is to
replace your filter every 6 months – at the same time as
your PARI reusable nebulizer .
Removing: First make sure the Vios
turned off. Using a coin, remove the air filter cover by
turning it counter-clockwise (Fig.E). Pull the cap and filter
out, then remove the filter from the cap (Fig.F-G).
NOTE: THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF FILTERS THAT FIT
THE VIOS COMPRESSOR. IF YOUR FILTER IS OPEN
®
ONLY ON ONE END AS SHOWN IN FIGURE F,
FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS AS SHOWN IN FIGURE F
AND G. IF YOUR FILTER IS OPEN ON BOTH ENDS,
PRESS EITHER END OF THE FILTER INTO THE CAP.
Take a new filter and press into cap with the open end
visible. Place the cap and filter back into the front of
your Vios . Use the coin to tighten by turning the cover
®
clockwise.
NOTE: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO WASH AND REUSE
AIR FILTERS. DO NOT USE SUBSTITUTE FILTER
MATERIAL COMPRESSOR DAMAGE MAY RESULT.
