Disposal; Troubleshooting - Beurer IH 26 Instrucciones De Uso

Important
Do not boil or autoclave the compressed air hose or
the masks.
• Put the parts together again if they are completely
dry and place them in a dry, sealed container.
Note
Please ensure that the parts are completely dried af-
ter cleaning, otherwise the risk of bacterial growth is
increased.
Drying
• Place the individual parts on a clean, dry and absor-
bent surface and leave them to dry completely (at
least 4 hours).
Durability of materials
• As with any plastic parts, atomisers and their acces-
sories are affected by a certain amount of wear and
tear when used and hygienically prepared on a fre-
quent basis. Over time, this can lead to a change in
the aerosol, which can have a negative effect on the
efficiency of the therapy. We therefore recommend
that you replace the atomiser and other accessories
after a year.
• The following point should be observed when select-
ing the cleaning product or disinfectant: only use a
mild cleaning product or disinfectant in the concen-
tration and volume prescribed by the manufacturer.
Storage
• Do not store in damp conditions (such as in a bath-
room) and do not transport with any damp items.
• When storing and transporting, protect from pro-
longed direct sunlight.
• The accessories can be stowed securely in the ac-
cessory compartment. Store the device in a dry
place, ideally in the original packaging.
