Wash them in warm water and mild, neutral detergent. Rinse them thoroughly with
clean hot tap water, gently tap to remove excess water and allow to air dry in a clean
place. It is advisable to replace the Nebulizer Kit after some 100 to 120 treatments or
after about 20 boiling cycles.
• Cleaning the Compressor and Air Tube:
Firstly, make sure that the power plug is unplugged from the power outlet. Wipe clean
with a soft cloth moistened with water or mild, neutral detergent.

treatment of the day. If the parts are heavily stained, replace them with new ones. The
Nebulizer Kit, Mask, Mouthpiece, Nosepiece and Adapter can be disinfected by using
a chemical disinfectant such as ethanol, sodium hypochlorite (Milton), Quaternary
ammonium (Osvan), Chlorhexidine (Hibitane) and Amphoteric Surfactant (Tego),
following product instructions and rinsing off with clean warm water. Leave to air-dry.
Note: Never clean with benzene, thinner or a flammable chemical.
