2.Rinse out the Sidestream nebulizer and refill with a little clean water.

CAUTION
When cleaning the Sidestream nebulizer (medication chamber), take great care not to damage the jet holes. DO NOT use a cleaning brush, abrasive sponge or pad as this damages the center baffle and seriously affects the performance of the Sidestream nebulizer.
NEVER put paper clips, needles or any other objects into the jet holes.
NEVER put the coiled duratube in any liquid.
6.Disassemble the Sidestream nebulizer into three (3) pieces: the base, the center baffle and the top as shown in FIGURE 3. Wash Sidestream nebulizer and mask or mouthpiece in warm soapy water, rinse thoroughly and air dry.
NOTE: Electrical items and any other dry components may be stored in the detachable accessory bag.
7.When all parts are thoroughly dry, store them in the storage compartment on the top of the Freeway Freedom ONLY.
CAUTION
NEVER store your nebulizer and medication in any other area except the storage section of the carrying case. Liquid medication may seriously damage the compressor.
