2. AT HOME
2.1 RECOMMENDED METHOD
• Wash the three nebulizer parts (excluding tubing) in a solution of warm water and liquid dish detergent
for about 5 minutes.
• Rinse in clean, warm water.
• Dry according to instructions in Section 2.3.
2.2 ALTERNATIVE METHOD
• The reusable AEROECLIPSE* XL BAN disassembled into its three parts (excluding tubing) may be
washed in a dishwasher by securing the nebulizer parts in a basket on the top rack. Wash in a normal
wash cycle, being sure to remove the basket prior to the drying cycle.
• Dishwashing with overly dirty dishes is not recommended.
• Dry according to instructions in Section 2.3.
2.3 DRYING
• To dry, shake the nebulizer parts to remove any excess water.
• We recommend you briefly reconnect the EZ Twist
compressed air supply to clear the air pathway.
• Allow parts to air dry thoroughly before reassembling.
• The nebulizer components may also be dried with a clean lint-free cloth prior to reassembly.
EZ TWIST TUBING
Occasionally you may notice condensation on the inside of your tubing. This is normal. To remove the
condensation, simply connect one end of the EZ Twist
Ombra* Compressor, and allow the air to run without the nebulizer attached. This will force air through
the tubing, drying the inside. To clean the exterior, wipe with a damp cloth. Ensure the tubing is dry prior
to storage.
