Before switching on the unit, make sure that the handle is in
its holder (jet must point to reverse side of the unit).

4.1 Adjusting temperatures

• Number of temperature levels: 3
- One level fixed to 37°C irrigation temperature.
- Two variable temperature levels (20°C - 47°C) (48°C
+ 49°C only for testing purposes).
• Temperate setting by coding switch (, , fig. 1).
- left switch: for adjusting the "ten" partition
- right switch: for adjusting the "one" partition
ª lower keys (+): Temperature increase
ª upper keys (-): Temperature decrease
• Standard settings:
- Level for irrigation mode: 37°C fixed
- Level for cold stimulation:
- Level for warm stimulation: 44°C

4.2 Selecting temperature levels

• After operating the main power switch, the automatic
activation of the thermal process begins for reducing
bacterial count, followed by the automatic activation of
the temperature level "irrigation mode" (37°C).
• For selecting the desired temperature level, use the
respective key (, , , fig. 1).

4.3 Adjusting stimulation time

• By means of coding switch (, Fig. 1).

4.4 Adjusting flow quantity

• Prior to stimulation turn the set screw (, fig. 6) upwards
and arrest it.
• 2 adjusting possibilities:
- High: Flow quantity for ear irrigation
- Low: Flow quantity for stimulation of the vestibule
Prior to ear irrigation the set screw is turned downwards,
inserted into the handle and then adjusted by turning it
downwards again.
For fine adjustment of the flow the adjusting screw (, fig.
6) is turned in respectively out.
) Periodically check the water flow for the stimulation of the
vestibular organ and readjust, if necessary.
