INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the Omron Compressor Nebulizer System.
This product was developed in conjunction with respiratory therapists for the successful
treatment of asthma, allergies and other respiratory disorders. The compressor forces air
through the tubing to the nebulizer. When the air enters the nebulizer, it converts the
prescribed medication into a mist of microscopic droplets that are inhaled.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This unit is a medical device. Operate this unit only as instructed by your doctor
and/or respiratory therapist.

Following the cleaning instructions after each use will prevent any remaining
medication in the bottle from drying resulting in the device not nebulizing
effectively.
Important:
Thoroughly rinse the nebulizer and the mask or mouthpiece with hot
tap water after each use, and clean with a mild detergent after the last
treatment of the day. Do not give heavy stress to the funnel or drop it.
Do not start operation before the cleaned parts are completely dried.
