(B2.3) clockwise. Close the nebuliser by turning the upper part (B2.3) clockwise.
3. Connect accessories as indicated in the "Connection diagram" on the cover.
4. Set the bowl selector to the desired particle size as described under "How to use the RF9 bowl".
5. Sit comfortably while holding the nebuliser in your hand, place the mouthpiece to your mouth or
use a nasal piece (if provided) or mask. If you use the mask accessory, place it on your face as shown in
the figure (with or without the use of the elastic band). (Fig. 12)
6. Switch on the device by pressing the switch (A1) and inhale and exhale deeply; after inhaling, it is
recommended to hold your breath for a moment so that the inhaled aerosol droplets can settle. Then
exhale slowly.
7. When the application is finished, switch off the device and disconnect it from the mains.
ATTENTION: If, after the therapy session, an obvious deposit of moisture forms inside the tube (B1),
detach the tube from the nebuliser and dry it with the ventilation of the compressor itself; this action
prevents possible mould growth inside the tube.
To facilitate the connection of the connection tube (B1) to the compressor unit, act on the end of it by
simultaneously rotating and inserting it, and for removal by rotating and extracting it. (Fig. 13).
USE OF NEBULIZATION MANUAL CONTROL
To achieve continuous nebulisation action you should not use the manual nebulisation control (B9),
especially in the case of children or persons with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities. The
manual nebulisation control is useful for limiting dispersion of the medication in the surrounding en-
vironment.
To start nebulizing close with a
finger the hole of the nebulizer
manual control (B9) and breathe
in gently; we recommend to
hold your breath for a moment
so that the inhaled aerosol
droplets can be deposited,

Upon inhalation, the tab, which acts as
a Dispersion Limiter, bends inwards in
the mask.
HYGIENIC PREPARATION
Switch off the appliance before each hygienic preparation operation and disconnect it from the mains.
Compressor unit (A) and pipe exterior (B1)
Use only a cloth moistened with antibacterial detergent (non-abrasive and free of solvents of any kind).
Nebuliser and accessories
To disassemble the bowl, firmly grasp the bowl body and then use your other hand to rotate the particle
size regulator (B2.4) clockwise until it is ejected from the upper part (B2.3) as a result of unscrewing.
The components can then be disassembled (regulator B2.4a, valve B2.4b, selector B2.4c and upper part
B2.3) to be cleaned. The nozzle (B2.2) is interference fitted in the upper part (B2.3) and can be extracted
by simply pulling it outwards.
Then proceed according to the following instructions.
SoftTouch masks have an outer edge made of soft, biocompatible ma-
terial that ensures an optimal fit on the face, and are also equipped with
theinnovative Dispersion Limiter. These characteristic features allow
for greater sedimentation of the drug in the patient, and again limit its
dispersion.

meanwhile, to disable nebuliz-
ing, remove your finger from the
hole of the nebulizer manual
control to avoid the waste of
drug, optimizing its acquisition.
Then exhale slowly.
Upon exhalation, the tab, which acts as
a Dispersion Limiter, bends outwards
from the mask.
