2. Operating instructions
• Before each use, thoroughly wash your hands and clean the nasal irrigator and
its accessories as directed in section 3.Cleaning, Sanitization, Disinfection and
Sterilization.
• Take care during use as the solution may drip from the nose.
2.1 - Before using for the first time, charge the batteries as indicated in the previous section.
2.2 - To use the nasal irrigator correctly, the man symbol (
chamber (4), must always face the patient.
The nebulisation chamber can either be fitted so that this symbol is on the same side
as the power button (5a), so the nasal irrigator can be activated using the thumb, or
with the symbol on the opposite side to the button, to be activated using the index
finger.
To obtain one of these conditions, when starting to screw the nebulisation chamber
(4) clockwise onto the compressor body (5) (figure B), the man symbol must be on the
opposite side to the position desired (figure C).
2.3 - Pour the solution (max 15 ml) into the nebulisation chamber (4a) as shown in figure D.
Check that the atomiser (3) is in place.
2.4 - Apply the separator (2), using the ball (2a) next to the man symbol (
outside of the nebulisation chamber (4) to guide it, as indicated in Figure E. Then insert
the nasal adaptor that best fits your nostrils (1a/1b/1c).
2.5 - Place the hole on the nasal adaptor inside a nostril (fig. F).
2.6 - Start the nasal irrigator by holding the dispensing button (5a) pressed down while
breathing in. Release the button before breathing out; during this stage, to help clear
your nose of mucous, gently blow through the nostril being treated with the nasal
irrigator, keeping the other nostril closed.
2.7 - Also during nebulisation in one nostril, press your finger on the other nostril to keep it
closed.
2.8 - Repeat steps from 2.5 to 2.7 for your other nostril, trying to divide the solution evenly
between the two.
2.9 - When treating children or persons with disabilities, who are not able to coordinate the
various manoeuvres of step 2.6, we suggest switching nostrils approximately every 15
seconds, pausing in between to allow the discharge of mucous.
2.10 - Before administering aerosol treatments, it is a good idea to wash your nose with
saline solution. This will allow the medication to be distributed more effectively over
the mucous membrane.
2.11 - After completing the treatment, switch off the unit. Clean and/or sanitise the unit as
directed in section 3.Cleaning, Sanitization, Disinfection and Sterilization.
The average life of the device includes about 1,000 applications.
