How to disinfect the unit each day

Note: if the device is not cleaned and disinfected correctly and as frequently as indicated, microorganisms may remain in the unit, causing risk of infection.

The medication container, mesh cap, mouthpiece, mask and mask adapter should be disinfected

•before using the unit for the first time,

•after the unit has not been used for a long period of time, or

•daily during normal use.

Before disinfection, always first clean the parts as described in the section “How to clean the unit after each inhalation” on the previous page.

Disinfection of the individual parts can be done, using one of the following methods:

1.Disinfection by boiling.

Note: Main unit, medication container and flexible mask can NOT be boiled. For these parts, use other methods, as described below.

Mesh-cap, mouthpiece and mask-adapter can be disinfected by boiling in distilled water. After 10 to 30 minutes of boiling, shake off excessive water from the parts and let them air dry on a clean, lint free (paper) towel.

2.Disinfection by using alcohol.

All parts can be disinfected by using alcohol.

Note: Alcohol is highly flammable; do not use alcohol in close vicinity of open fire; do not smoke. Soak the parts (NOT the main unit) in 70% ethyl alcohol for approx. 1 minute. Shake off excessive alcohol from the parts and let them air dry on a clean, lint free (paper) towel.

Alternatively, disinfect all parts by wiping them off with a lint-free cloth, soaked in alcohol.

3.Disinfection by commercially available disinfectant. Note: Do NOT soak the main unit in any disinfectant.
