– The compressor must not be operated and/or the power
plug must be unplugged from the socket immediately if the
compressor or the power cord is damaged, or if a fault is
suspected after the device has been dropped or suffered a
similar shock.
1.5 Using the nebuliser
Observe the following hygiene instructions:
– Do not use product components unless they have been
thoroughly cleaned and dried. Contamination and residual
moisture encourage the growth of bacteria, so increasing
the risk of infection.
– Before every use and cleaning, wash your hands
thoroughly.
– Make absolutely sure you also carry out cleaning and drying
before using the device for the first time.
– For cleaning and disinfection, always use fresh water with
reduced calcium content.
– Make sure all components are dried properly after cleaning
or disinfection.
– Do not keep the product and accessories in a damp environ-
ment or together with damp objects.
1.6 Treatment of children and anyone who
requires assistance
Children and anyone who requires assistance must be super-
vised constantly by an adult while carrying out the treatment.
This is the only way to ensure safe and effective treatment. In-
dividuals in this group often underestimate the hazards in-
volved (e.g. strangulation with the power cord or the connec-
tion tubing), thus resulting in a risk of injury.
