NOTES ON PRODUCT SAFETY
During the development of the INQUA
was placed on compliance with recognised safety regulations and
consideration of the latest technology. However, improper use of the
product may endanger the user or the patient. In order to avoid this,
follow the instructions in the following chapters.
The following general instructions apply:
People with mental, physical or sensory disabilities and children
do not recognise the risks that may arise when using the inhala-
tion device and its components. Never allow anyone from these
groups access to the inhalation device without supervision. For
example, there is a risk that individual parts may be swallowed,
bitten or bitten off, or that the inhalation device may be pulled off
the table by the connection tubing or power cord. There is also a
danger of strangulation with the connection tubing or power cord.
Small components, such as the air filter or removal tool, can be
swallowed or block the respiratory tract, and may thus represent
a choking hazard. Therefore, keep and dispose of all small parts
out of the reach of children!
Only plug the compressor into mains sockets that are compliant
with current safety regulations. If necessary, consult a qualified
electrician. If the compressor is plugged into a non-compliant
mains socket, there is a danger of electric shock.
The compressor is designed for use with the supply voltage
printed on the type identification plate. If the compressor is
plugged into a mains socket with a different supply voltage, the
compressor may be damaged.
To avoid the hazard of an electric shock, unplug the mains plug
from the socket immediately
- if a malfunction occurs during operation,
- before cleaning and maintaining the appliance,
- after each use.
Do not run the power cord over sharp edges, or allow it to be
pinched or hang unsupported. There is a risk of electric shock if
the compressor is operated with a damaged power cord.
Do not attempt to make any conversions or unauthorised addi-
tions to the product, because this will impair the product's operat-
ing reliability.
Store and operate the inhalation device only in places where it is
supported firmly and cannot fall. Because of the weight of the
inhalation device, it represents a danger to anyone or anything
below it if it falls.
