3. INTENDED PURPOSE

Intended use

Nebulisers (including compressor, ultrasonic and mesh nebulisers) are medical devices for the nebulisation of liquids and liquid medication (aerosols). This device produces aerosols by combining compressed air and liquid medication. The aerosol treatment is suitable for treating the upper and lower airways. By nebulising and inhaling the medication prescribed/recommended by your doctor, you can prevent diseases affecting the airways, or in the case that you contract such an illness, you can alleviate symptoms and speed up your recovery.

Target group

The nebuliser is intended for use in the home healthcare environment, not in professional healthcare facilities. The nebuliser can be used on anyone over 2 years of age under supervision; it can be used for self-treatment by anyone over 12 years of age.

The shape of the person's face determines whether or not the device can be used under supervision. As such, it may be possible to use the device under supervision on someone who is younger, or conversely it may not be possible to use the device until they are older. When using a mask to inhale, take care to ensure the mask fits well and the eyes are unobstructed.

Clinical benefits

Inhalation is the most effective way to administer medication for most respiratory system conditions.

The benefits are:

• The medication is transported directly to the target organs,

• The local bioavailability of the medication is significantly increased,

• Systemic diffusion is reduced substantially,

• Only very low doses of the medication are required,
• Quick and effective therapeutic effect,
• Side effects are significantly reduced compared to systemic administration,
  • Humidifying of the airways,
• Loosening and making (bronchial) secretions more liquid,
• Releasing bronchospasms (spasmolysis),
• Relieving swollen and inflamed bronchial mucosa,
• Coughing up secretions,
• Fighting viruses that affect the upper and lower airways.

Indication

The nebuliser can be used for diseases of the upper and/or lower airways. Examples of upper respiratory system diseases include:

• Rhinitis,
• Allergic rhinitis,
• Sinusitis,
• Pharyngitis,
• Laryngitis.

Examples of lower respiratory system diseases include:

• Bronchial asthma,
• Bronchitis,
• Bronchiectasis,
• Acute tracheobronchitis,
• Cystic fibrosis,
• Pneumonia.

- COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease),

Contraindications

• The atomiser is not intended for the treatment of life-threatening conditions.
• This device must not be used by children under the age of 12 and by people with reduced physical, sensory (e.g. reduced sensitivity to pain) or mental skills or a lack of experience or knowledge, unless they are supervised or have been in-

structured on how to use the device safely, and are fully aware of the consequent risks of use.

• Do not use the device on persons who are ventilated and/or unconscious.
• Check whether there are contraindications for use with the usual systems for aerosol treatment on the medication instruction leaflet.

Setting up the device

Take the device out of the packaging. Place the device on a flat surface. Make sure that the vents are free from obstructions.

Before using the device for the first time

Clean and disinfect the atomiser and atomiser set before using them for the first time. See “Cleaning and maintenance” in this regard.

• Connect the compressed air hose 6 to the bottom of the medication container 9. A1
• Connect the other end of the compressed air hose 6 to the nebuliser hose connection 4 by turning it slightly. A2
• Insert the medication container 9 into the holder for the atomiser 5.

Mains connection

The device must only be connected to the mains voltage that is specified on the type plate.

• Insert the mains plug of the mains cable 1 into a suitable socket.
• To connect to the mains, fully insert the plug into the socket.

• Ensure that there is a mains socket close to the set-up area.
• Arrange the mains cable so that no-one will trip over it.
• To disconnect the nebuliser from the mains after inhalation, first switch off the device and then pull the mains plug out of the socket.

7. USAGE

IMPORTANT

• For hygiene reasons, it is essential to clean the atomiser 7 and the rest of the atomiser set after each treatment and to disinfect them after the last treatment of the day.
• The atomiser set parts may only be used by one person; use by several people is not recommended.
• If the therapy involves inhaling several different medications one after the other, please be aware that the atomiser 7 must be rinsed under warm tap water following every usage. See “Cleaning and maintenance” in this regard.
• Please observe the notes on changing the filter in these instructions for use.
• Check that the hose connectors are firmly attached to the nebuliser 4 and the atomiser 7 before each use of the device.
• Before use, check that the device is functioning correctly. To do this, briefly switch on the nebuliser (together with the connected atomiser, but without medication). If air comes out of the atomiser 7, the device is working.

7.1 Inserting the atomiser insert

• Open the atomiser 7 by twisting the top anticlockwise against the medication container 9. Place the atomiser insert 8 in the medication container 9.
• Ensure that the cone for administering medication fits well on the cone for the airflow inside the atomiser 7.

7.2 Filling the atomiser

• Fill with an isotonic saline solution or pour the medication directly into the medication container 9. Avoid overfilling. The maximum recommended filling quantity is 6 ml.
• Use medication only as instructed by your doctor and ask about the appropriate inhalation period and quantity for you.
• If the prescribed quantity of medication is less than 2 ml, top this up to at least 4 ml with isotonic saline solution. Dilution is also necessary with viscous medications. Please observe the instructions of your doctor in this case, too.

7.3 Closing the atomiser

- Close the atomiser 7 by twisting the top clockwise against the medication container 9. Ensure that the connection is correct.

7.4 Connecting the atomiser set to the atomiser

- Connect the atomiser 7 to the desired atomiser set (mouthpiece 10, adult mask 11 or children's mask 12).

The most effective way of nebulising is by using the mouthpiece. Nebulisation using a mask is only recommended if it is not possible to use a mouthpiece (e.g. for children who are not yet able to inhale using a mouthpiece). When using a mask to inhale, take care to ensure the mask fits well and the eyes are unobstructed.

• Before the treatment, pull the atomiser upwards out of the holder 5.
• Start the nebuliser using the On/Off control 2.
• Spray mist pouring out indicates that the device is operating correctly.

7.5 Treatment

• When inhaling, sit upright and relaxed at a table and not in an armchair to avoid compressing the airways and therefore impairing the effectiveness of the treatment.
• Breathe in the atomised medication deeply.

IMPORTANT

The device is not suitable for continuous operation; after 30 minutes of operation it must be switched off for 30 minutes.

During the treatment, hold the atomiser straight (vertically), otherwise the atomisation will not work and faultless functionality is not guaranteed.

IMPORTANT

Essential oils, cough syrups, gargling solutions and drops to be used as a rub or in a steam bath are wholly unsuitable for inhalation using a nebuliser. These additives are often viscous and can impair the correct functioning of the device and therefore the effectiveness of the application in the long term. For individuals with a hypersensitive bronchial system, medications containing essential oils may under certain conditions

cause an acute bronchospasm (a sudden cramp-like restriction of the bronchi with shortness of breath). Talk to your doctor or pharmacist about this.

7.6 Stopping the inhalation

Once the mist is only coming out in an irregular flow or if the sound changes when inhaling, you can stop the treatment.

• Switch off the nebuliser after treatment using the On/Off control 2 and disconnect it from the mains.
• Place the atomiser 7 back in its holder 5 after the treatment.

7.7 Cleaning

See "Cleaning and maintenance".

8. CHANGING THE FILTER

In normal operating conditions, the air filter must be replaced after approx. 200 operating hours or one year. Please check the air filter regularly (after 10–12 nebulisation procedures). Replace the used filter if it is very dirty or clogged. If the filter has become damp, it must also be exchanged for a new filter.

IMPORTANT

• Do not attempt to clean the used filter and reuse it.
• Only use the manufacturer's original filter, otherwise your nebuliser may become damaged and sufficiently effective treatment cannot be guaranteed.
• Do not repair or maintain the air filter while it is in use.
• Never operate the device without a filter.

To replace the filter, proceed as follows:

IMPORTANT

• First switch the device off and disconnect it from the mains.

• Allow the device to cool down.

• Remove the filter cap 3 upwards. B

If the filter remains in the device after the cap has been removed, take the filter out of the device, e.g. with tweezers or similar.

1. Re-insert the filter cap 3 with a new filter.
2. Ensure that it is securely in place.

9. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Atomiser and atomiser set

WARNING

Follow these hygiene instructions to avoid health risks.

- The atomiser 7 and the rest of the atomiser set are intended for multiple use. Please note that different areas of application involve different requirements in terms of cleaning and hygienic preparation.

i

• Do not clean the atomiser or the atomiser set mechanically using a brush or similar device, as this could cause irreparable damage and it will mean that the best treatment results can no longer be guaranteed.
• Please consult your doctor about the additional requirements in terms of the hygienic preparation needed (hand care, handling of medication/inhalation solutions) for high-risk groups (e.g. patients with cystic fibrosis).
• Ensure thorough drying after each cleaning and disinfection process. Residual moisture or wetness can represent an increased risk of bacterial growth.

Preparation

- Immediately after each treatment, all parts of the atomiser 7 and the rest of the atomiser set used must be cleaned of medication residues and contamination.

• To do this, dismantle the atomiser 7 into its individual parts.
• Remove the mouthpiece 10 or masks 11 12 from the atomiser.
• Dismantle the atomiser by twisting the top anticlockwise against the medication container 9.
• Remove the atomiser insert 8 from the medication container 9.
• Proceed in reverse order to subsequently reassemble the parts.

Cleaning

IMPORTANT

The device must be switched off, disconnected from the mains and allowed to cool down each time before cleaning.

The atomiser 7 and the rest of the atomiser set used, such as the mouthpiece 10, masks 11 12, etc. must be cleaned with hot but not boiling water after each use. Dry the parts carefully using a soft cloth. Put the parts together again when they are completely dry and place them in a dry, sealed container or disinfect them.

When cleaning, ensure that any residue is removed. Never use any substances for cleaning that could potentially be toxic if they came into contact with the skin or mucous membranes, or if they were swallowed or inhaled.

Use a soft, dry cloth and non-abrasive cleaning products to clean the device.

Do not use any abrasive cleaning products and never submerge the device in water.

IMPORTANT

• Make sure that no water gets inside the device!
• Do not clean the device or atomiser set in the dishwasher!
• Do not touch the device with wet hands when it is plugged in and do not allow

water to spray on the device. Only operate the device if it is completely dry.

- Do not spray any liquid into the vents! If liquid penetrates the device this could cause damage to the electrics or other nebuliser parts and lead to a malfunction.

Condensation, hose care

Condensation may form in the hose depending on the ambient conditions. It is essential to remove the moisture to prevent bacterial growth and ensure proper treatment. To do so, proceed as follows:

• Disconnect the hose 6 from the atomiser 7.
• The hose must remain in the nebuliser 4.
• Operate the nebuliser until the moisture is removed by the air passing through.
• In the event of heavy contamination, replace the hose.

Disinfection

Please carefully observe the points below when disinfecting your atomiser and the atomiser set. We recommend disinfecting the individual parts after the last treatment of the day as a minimum measure. All you need for this is a little vinegar essence (25% acidity) and distilled water.

• First, clean the atomiser and atomiser set as described in the “Cleaning” section.
• Place the disassembled atomiser 7 and mouthpiece 10 in boiling water for 5 minutes. Contact between the parts and the hot base of the pan should be avoided.
• For the rest of the atomiser set, use a vinegar solution consisting of 12 vinegar essence (25% acidity) and 12 distilled water. Make sure that the volume is sufficient to fully submerse the parts, such as the atomiser, mask and mouthpiece, in the solution.
• Leave the parts in the vinegar solution for 30 minutes.
• Rinse the parts with water and dry them carefully with a soft cloth.

IMPORTANT

Do not boil or autoclave the compressed air hose or the masks.

Drying

- Place the individual parts on a clean, dry and absorbent surface and leave them to dry completely (at least 4 hours).

Ensure that the parts are completely dried after cleaning, otherwise the risk of bacterial growth is increased.

- Put the parts together again when they are completely dry and place them in a dry, sealed container.

Durability of materials

- As with any plastic parts, atomisers and the rest of the atomiser set are affected by a certain amount of wear and tear when used and hygienically prepared on a frequent basis. Over time, this can lead to a change in the aerosol, which can reduce the effectiveness of the treatment. We therefore recommend that you replace the atomiser and the atomiser set after a year at the latest. This recommendation is based on the assumption that the parts are disinfected 360 times. Disinfecting them more frequently within a year will reduce the service life accordingly.

- The following point should be observed when selecting the cleaning product or disinfectant: Only use a mild cleaning product or disinfectant in the concentration and volume prescribed by the manufacturer.

Storage

• Do not store in damp conditions (such as in a bathroom) and do not transport with any damp items.
• When storing and transporting, protect from prolonged direct sunlight.
• Store the device in a dry place, ideally in the original packaging.

Please note that portable and mobile HF communication systems may interfere with this device. For more details, please contact our Customer Services at the address indicated.

Notes on electromagnetic compatibility

- The device is suitable for use in all environments listed in these instructions for use, including domestic environments.

• The use of the device may be limited in the presence of electromagnetic disturbances. As a result, the device may fail.
• Avoid using this device directly next to other devices or stacked on top of other devices, as this could lead to faulty operation. If, however, it is necessary to use the device in the manner stated, this device as well as the other devices must be monitored to ensure they are working properly.
• The use of an atomiser set other than that specified or provided by the manufacturer of this device can lead to an increase in electromagnetic emissions or a decrease in the device's electromagnetic immunity; this can result in faulty operation.
• Keep portable RF communication devices (including peripheral equipment, such as antenna cables or external antennas) at least 30 cm away from all device parts, including all cables included in delivery.

• Failure to comply with the above could impair the performance of the device.

• WHAT IF THERE ARE PROBLEMS?

Problems/questions	Possible cause/remedy
The atomiser produces no or too little aerosol.	1. Too much or too little medication in the atomiser. Minimum: 2 ml, Maximum: 6 ml.
	2. Check nozzle for blockages. Clean nozzle if necessary (e.g. by rinsing out). Then start using the atomiser again. IMPORTANT: Carefully pierce the fine holes only from the underside of the nozzle.
	3. Atomiser not held vertically.
	4. Unsuitable medication fluid added for nebulisation (e.g. too viscous). The medication fluid should be prescribed by a doctor.
The output is too low.	Kinked hose, clogged filter, too much inhalation solution.
What medications are suitable for inhaling?	Please consult your doctor in relation to this matter. As a rule, all medication that is suitable and approved for device inhalation can be inhaled.
There is inhalation solution residue in the atomiser.	This is normal and is due to technical reasons. Stop inhalation once the atomiser starts to make a notably different sound.
What should be taken into account when using the device with children?	On children, the mask should cover the mouth and nose to ensure effective inhalation. It is not very useful to carry out nebulisation on someone who is sleeping, as in this case not enough of the medication will reach the lungs.Notice: Inhalation should only be carried out under the supervision of an adult and with their assistance and the child should not be left alone.
Why should the atom-iser be replaced regularly?	There are two reasons for this:1. To ensure a therapeutically effective particle spectrum, the nozzle hole must not exceed a specific diameter. Due to mechanical and thermal stresses, the plastic is subject to a certain degree of wear.The atomiser insert 8 is particularly delicate. This can also alter the composition of the aerosol droplets, which directly affects the effectiveness of the treatment.2. Regularly changing the atomiser is also recommended for hygiene reasons.
Should each person have their own atomiser?	Yes, this is absolutely essential for hygiene reasons.

12. DISPOSAL

For environmental reasons, do not dispose

of the device in the household waste. Please dispose of the device in accordance with EC Directive – WEEE (Waste Electrical and Elec-
