Application area
This nebuliser is an ultrasonic atomiser for treating
the upper and lower airways.
The aerosol generated by the high-frequency vibra-
tion has a predominant droplet size of 1 - 5 μm and is
therefore very well suited for transporting the nebu-
lised active agents directly to the lower airways.
ENGLISH
By nebulising and inhaling the medication prescribed/
recommended by your doctor, you can prevent dis-
eases affecting the airways, or in the case that you
contract such an illness, you can alleviate symptoms
and speed up your recovery. Ask your doctor or phar-
macist for further information about the potential ap-
plications.
The device is suitable for inhalation at home and can
also be used on multiple occasions in one day when
on the move. Inhaler medication should only be used
following instructions to do so from a doctor. Ensure
you are calm and relaxed when inhaling the medica-
tion and breathe slowly and deeply to ensure that the
medication reaches right down to the lower bronchi.
Breathe out normally.
Once it has been properly prepared, the device can
be used again. Preparation involves replacing all
the accessories and disinfecting the surface of the
device using a standard disinfectant.
