Thank you for purchasing the MedPro AirPort™ Portable Nebulizer
System. It is a compact medical device designed to efficiently deliver
physician prescribed medication to the bronchial lung passages. With
proper care it will provide you with many years of reliable treatment.
This device is developed for use in the treatment of asthma, allergies and
other respiratory disorders. The pump creates a stream of compressed air
that is sent to the nebulizer. When the air enters the nebulizer, it will
convert the liquid solution of medication present in the nebulizer
chamber into an aerosol mist for easy inhalation.
This device can be used on adult or pediatric patients.
®
Your MedPro AirPort™ Portable Nebulizer System should be used
under the supervision of a licensed physician and / or a respiratory
therapist. We encourage you to thoroughly read this instruction manual
to learn about the features of this product. Any use of this device other
than its intended use should always be avoided.

Failure to read and observe all precautions could result in personal
injury or equipment damage.
• THIS DEVICE IS DESIGNED FOR AEROSOL THERAPY ONLY.
Any use for other purposes is inappropriate and therefore dangerous.
The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damage resulting from
improper or abusive usage, nor if the device is used on electrical
installations that do not conform to the current standard specified in
this manual.
• Do not use the device in the presence of mixtures of anesthetics that

NEVER OPEN THE COMPRESSOR’S MAIN UNIT.
• Do not use this product while bathing or in a humid environment such
as close to a bathtub. To avoid electrical shock, keep the unit away from
water. Do not immerse the power cord or the unit in liquid. Never reach
for a unit that has fallen into water – immediately unplug the unit.
• Never operate this device if feeling drowsy. Close supervision is required
when it is used by, on, or near children or compromised individuals.
• Always unplug the nebulizer immediately after use. Always keep the
unit and power cord away from heat.
• Unplug the nebulizer before filling. Do not overfill.
•This device will turn off automatically after approx. 20 minutes of
operation. To prevent over-heating and damage to the unit, allow it

RECHARGEABLE BATTERY INFORMATION
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THE BATTERY.
1. You should fully charge your battery for at least 8 hours before using
it for the first time. Protect the battery from high temperatures when
charging, operating and storing.
2. For optimal charging efficiency, the battery should be charged at an
ambient temperature of 10~30°C. If battery is charged outside of the
recommended temperature range, you may notice erratic functioning
of the charging indicator light.
3. If the battery is used at an ambient temperature over 45°C, the
nebulizer may shut down automatically to prevent overheating.
If this occurs, allow the device and battery to cool down.
4. When the nebulizer power indicator light turns to orange (indicating
low power), detach the battery from the nebulizer until charging.
5. Only charge and recharge this battery with the AC adaptor supplied
with your nebulizer. DO NOT attempt to use any other device as it
may damage your battery and will void its warranty.
6. If the battery is not to be used for a long period of time, it should be
recharged every three (3) months to maintain optimal performance.
ABOUT THE TWO-VALVE FEATURE
The mouthpiece included with this unit
features a two-valve system. During expiration,
the expiration valve will open, allowing the
patient's exhaled air to pass to atmosphere,
avoiding contamination of the device. During
inspiration, the valve will close, maximizing
the amount of inhalation and reducing any
waste of drug to a minimum.
