• Use medication only as instructed by your doc-
tor 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 iso-
tonic saline solution. Dilution is also necessary
with viscous medications. Here too, please ob-
serve the instructions of your doctor.

7.5 Connecting the atomiser set to
the atomiser
• Connect the atomiser
of the atomiser set. The mouthpiece
nosepiece (n/a) can be directly attached. The
silicone children's mask
mask must be attached to the atomiser us-
14
ing the angled fitting
Notice
The most effective form of nebulisation is by using
the mouthpiece. Nebulisation using a mask is only
recommended if it is not possible to use a mouth-
piece (e.g. for children who are not yet able to in-
hale 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 up-
wards out of the holder
• Start the nebuliser using the On/Off control
• Spray mist pouring out indicates that the de-
vice is operating correctly.
7.6 Treatment
• When inhaling, sit upright and relaxed at a table
and not in an armchair to avoid compressing
the airways and therefore impairing the effec-
tiveness 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.
Notice
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 bron-
chial system, medications containing essential
oils may under certain conditions cause an acute
10 bronchospasm (a sudden cramp-like restriction of
the bronchi with shortness of breath). Consult your
.
doctor or pharmacist in relation to this matter.

7.7 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

• Place the atomiser
ter the treatment.
7.8 Nasal douche
The nasal douche is not included in the scope of
delivery (n/a). You can find an overview of all re-
placement items in section "Atomiser set and re-
placement parts". You can use the nasal douche
to clean your nasal cavities. The nasal douche
creates a fine jet of liquid for treating respiratory
tract problems or for moistening the nasal mucous
membranes.
We recommend using the nasal douche for colds,
. dryness inside the nose, dust exposure, pollen
2
allergies, chronic inflammation of the sinuses or
upon the advice of your doctor.
Warning
• Do not use the nasal douche in combination
with other medication or essential oils.
