Nebuliser handset

The nebuliser handset (and the aerosol
head) must be cleaned immediately after
each use, and disinfected once a day.

Preparation

Disassemble the nebuliser handset into its
individual parts:
• Pull the connection cord out of the
nebuliser handset.
• Remove the mouthpiece from the
nebuliser handset.
• Open the medication reservoir and pour
out the medication residue.
• Open the aerosol chamber.
• Remove the aerosol head (3).
To do this, gently press the engaging
side hooks on the aerosol head
together.
NOTE:
Do not touch the membrane (the
curved metal surface in the middle of
the aerosol head) to avoid damage.
• Remove the inspiratory valve from the
aerosol chamber.

Cleaning

Clean the nebuliser handset (incl. aerosol
head) immediately after each application.
NOTE:
Rinsing all the parts of the nebuliser hand-
set and the aerosol head in warm tap
water straight after use prevents medica-
tion residue from accumulating, for exam-
ple. This helps you to prevent potential
extension of the nebulisation time due to
partial closure of the pores in the
membrane.
NOTE:
If necessary, clean the aerosol head with
the easycare cleaning aid (not more than
twice a week). Backwashing unblocks the
pores in the membrane of the aerosol
head by flushing with liquid in the opposite
direction to the direction for nebulising.
Observe the information provided in the
easycare instructions for use.
• Rinse each side of the aerosol head for
5 seconds each in warm tap water
(water of drinking water quality,
temperature up to 37 °C).
• Rinse all parts of the nebuliser handset
for 5 seconds.
• Place all nebuliser handset parts and
the aerosol head in warm tap water with
a few drops of washing up liquid for
5 minutes. Use a clean bowl for this.
