General Information
The OMRON CompAIR CXpro is a nebuliser for the inhalation of medical aerosols to treat asthma, chronic bronchitis and other respiratory tract disorders. This nebuliser is suitable for all commonly used inhalation solutions. Use only the type and amount of medication prescribed by your doctor.
The advanced nebulisation system of the OMRON CompAIR CXpro produces a very low particle size distri- bution and therefore a medication vapour that will reach effectively and reliably the upper and lower respirato- ry passages.Due to the inhalation and exhalation valves, the amount of medication deposited into the lungs is maximized and medication waste is minimized.
The OMRON CompAIR CXpro is suitable for inhalation at home, in the hospital or at a doctor's practice.
Safety precautions

●The unit does not contain any user serviceable parts and does not require oil. Do not attempt to lubricate any internal parts. Never open the unit.
●Make sure that the electrical rating shown on the rating label on the bottom of the unit corresponds to your mains voltage and frequency before plugging in the nebuliser.
●Always disconnect the nebuliser from the mains supply before you start cleaning it.
●The unit is not protected against water penetration, so: Never touch the unit when your hands are wet or moist. Do not use the nebuliser while you are in the bath or having a shower.

●This device is not suitable for use in anaestetic breathing systems.
●Before using this device, be sure to confirm proper operation of the device: Prepare and fill the nebuliser- kit as instructed in the manual, followed by visual checking if aerosol comes out after power on of the device.
●Specifications regarding Output, Output rate and particle size may depend on the type of medication used. Especially suspensions and high viscosity medications may have big influence on the indicated specifications. See drug supplier´s data sheet for further details.
