Indications

This nebuliser is suitable for the treatment of asthma, chronic bronchitis and other respiratory tract diseases e.g. the common cold. This innovative ultrasound technology allows the medically effective inhalation of aerosol medicines into the upper and lower airways. This inhalation prevents respiratory tract diseases, alleviates their accompanying symptoms and speeds recovery. You can obtain further information on suitable applications from your doctor or pharmacist.

The device is suitable for inhalation at home or when travelling. Inhalation of medication should be used only under a doctor's supervision. Carry out inhalation in a quiet and relaxed state, and inhale slowly and deeply, so that the medicine can enter the fine, deep bronchial tubes. Exhale normally.

The following symbols are used on the pa- ckaging and on the nameplate of the device and accessories.

Attention: Important Notes Keep for later use

• After opening the packaging, check that the Inhalator and accessories have no damage or defects. Otherwise contact your dealer immediately.
• Use the Inhalator only as specified, i.e. for aerosol therapy. All other use is improper and therefore dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper or incorrect usage.
• Use the Inhalator on frail persons and children only under supervision.
• The Inhalator and accessories must never be left in the unsupervised hands of children.
• Before using your Inhalator, ensure that the supply voltage stated on the power line adapter is the same as that of the local supply voltage.
• Use only the power line adapter supplied.
• Always use only pure water in the water tank. Other liquids may cause the Inhalator to become defective.
• The Inhalator must not be tilted or shaken during use. Otherwise, the medicament could be mixed with the water in the tank.
• Keep the Inhalator away from your eyes during use. The medicament mist could cause injury.
• Never use the Inhalator when the water tank or medicament cup is empty.
• Always comply with the doctor's instructions concerning the type of medicament to be used, the dosage and duration of inhalation.
• Do not operate the Inhalator in the presence of flammable gases.
• Never touch the power cord or power line adapter with wet hands - you could receive an electric shock.
• Comply with the cleaning instructions.
• Only one person should use the Inhalator in order to avoid cross infection.
• If you find that your Inhalator is not suctioning correctly or is damaged, switch it off and disconnect it from the power line adapter or battery. Then contact your authorized dealer. Only Beurer spare parts must be used.

The Inhalator consists only of parts that can be repaired or exchanged by the authorized dealer/service agency.

• Batteries that are defective or no longer required should not be deposited in domestic waste. Dispos of the fully discharged battery at disposal depots established for this purpose. You can fully discharge the battery yourself ba operating the Inhalator until its indicator lamp lights red or flashes.

Power supply

The Inhalator can be operated in two different ways:

1. With the power line adapter

The power line adapter is suitable for use in homes provided with a 230V supply voltage. Insert the small plug of the power line adapter into the socket underneath the Inhalator. Then plug the power plug of the power line adapter into the socket outlet. The Inhalator is now ready to use.

2. With rechargeable battery

The battery allows you to use the Inhalator where no other power sources are available. Insert the small battery plug into the socket underneath the Inhalator. Its operating time lasts up to 30 min. If the indicator lamp lights red or flashes, this means that the battery is discharged and must be charged up. Use only the rechargeable battery supplied by the manufacturer. The use of other batteries can damage the Inhalator.

Starting up

The Inhalator must be thoroughly cleaned before first use. This also applies if the Inhalator has not been used for a long time (see "cleaning").

Filling the water tank

1. Connect the Inhalator to the power line adapter or the battery.
2. Ensure that the Inhalator is switched off (the indicator lamp must be not be lit, i.e. it must neither flash green nor light up green!).
3. Remove the top cover from the Inhalator.
4. Fill the tank only with tap water or distilled water (20 - 30^) otherwise you could damage your Inhalator.

We recommend that you boil the water beforehand. The correct filling level is between the two markings on the inside of the tank. If the water temperature is lower than 20^ , nebulization of the medicament will be considerably less than at the specified temperature. The warmer the water, the greater the degree of nebulization.

1. Empty the tank after every session and fill it again each time the Inhalator is used.

Filling the medicament cup

1. Place the medicament cup on the water tank.
2. Pour the medicament directly into the cup. Do not overfill the medicament cup! The filling level is at max. 5 ml!
3. Use medicaments only under your doctor's instructions and check the inhalation time and quantity appropriate for you.
4. If the prescribed quantity of medicament is less than 2ml , top it up to at least 4ml with distilled water or isotonic saline solution! Viscous medicaments must also be diluted. In this case also, follow your doctor's instructions.
5. Replace the top cover back on the Inhalator again and ensure that it snaps into place.

Stop using the medicament cup as soon as signs of wear appear at the tip (cracks, white marks). Do not use a medicament cup for more than three sessions.

Using the Inhalator with accessories (optional)

The Inhalator can be used both with and without a mask. It is advisable for children to use a mask.

During the following procedures, take care not to tilt the Inhalator to prevent mixing of the water and medicament.

1. Make sure that the Inhalator is switched off.
2. Now push the short, white tube of the inhalation mask (with children the smaller mask) into the open end of the extension tube.
3. Fit the extension tube into the aperture in the top cover by pushing the tube together slightly at a smooth end, and push it into the aperture until a slight snap engagement can be heard.

Operation

Make sure that the Inhalator is in the vertical position before you switch it on and thus ensure that it operates correctly with maximum effectiveness.

1. Press the ON/OFF button to switch on the Inhalator. The indicator lamp lights up green.
2. Adjust the filter case at the back of the Inhalator to ensure the required amount of airflow. At maximum setting, three air holes can be seen.

3. If desired, use the inhalation mask. We also recommend during use of the mask that you breath in and out through your mouth in order to reach the bronchial system. If your nose is to be included, breath in through your nose and out through your mouth.

4. Inhale the medicament prescribed by your doctor. The Inhalator is designed so that the

inhalation rate increases after a few minutes. It begins at a minimum.

1. When the mist is no longer constant, this indicates that the medicament cup is empty. Inhale until no more mist is produced or the Inhalator switches off (the Inhalator switches off automatically after 10 min. of use).

1. Switch off the Inhalator by pressing the ON/OFF button. The indicator lamp goes out. Unplug the power plug of the power line adapter from the socket outlet and unplug the small plug from the socket underneath the Inhalator.
2. Empty the medicament and water residues (WARNING: HOT!) and clean the Inhalator as described under "Cleaning". Allow the Inhalator to cool down for 30 minutes before re-use.

Troubleshooting

If problems still occur despite the following checks, send the Inhalator for repair to the address appropriate for you.

Problem cause/solution
The Inhalator does not react when the ON/OFF button is pressed	Check that the power line adapter/battery is connected to the Inhalator correctly. Check that the water tank has been properly filled. Check that the battery is properly charged.
Low or no nebulization Make sure that the medicament cup is sufficiently full (min. 2ml - max. 5ml) and is not broken. Check that the Inhalator under the medicament cup is clean.
The fan is not operating correctly Check that the fan is securely and correctly connected to the motor shaft.

Cleaning and storage

Disconnect the power supply before cleaning. Do not immerse the Inhalator in water; it could be irreparably damaged. On each occasion after use, we advise you to clean the Inhalator as follows:

1. Remove the top cover, the medicament cup, air filter and filter case (pull down and out from the rear protective sheath) and clean these parts with a damp cloth and a mild detergent or disinfectant according to the manufacturer's instructions. Clean the extension tubing and inhalation masks in the same manner.
2. Clean the case with a damp, soft cloth and exclusively with water. Rinse the water tank thoroughly with clear water.
3. Use only a soft, dry cloth to clean the small fan and the air inflow under the rear cover. Only the cover can be sterilized with boiling water. The Inhalator, the power line adapter and the rechargeable battery must not be exposed to direct sunlight, high temperatures or dampness.

Charging the battery

1. Plug the small plug of the power line adapter into the socket underneath the battery.
2. Now plug the power plug of the power line adapter into the socket outlet. The battery indicator lamp lights. For first use and after a long period of non-use the charging time is approx. 24 hours, otherwise 10 - 12 hours according to the state of discharge of the battery.
3. Do not place the battery in metal containers, on any kind of metal or on wet surfaces. This could cause the battery to be short-circuited with subsequent over-heating and possibly cause an explosion.
