3. Once there is no cleaning liquid left in the opening of the
mesh atomiser, switch the nebuliser off again by press-
ing the On/Off button (3).
Note
The nebuliser does NOT switch off automatically when the
self-cleaning function is activated.
Disinfection
Please carefully observe the points below when disinfect-
ing your atomiser and accessories. We recommend dis-
infecting the individual parts on a daily basis after the last
usage as a minimum measure.
You can disinfect the Emser
accessories in two ways: using ethyl alcohol or boiling
water.
First, clean the atomiser and accessories as described in
the "Cleaning" section. Then continue with the disinfection.
Important
Make sure that you do not touch the mesh (2), as this
can destroy it.
Disinfection with ethyl alcohol (70-75%)
• Pour 8 ml of ethyl alcohol into the medication container
(1). Close the container. Leave the alcohol in the con-
tainer for at least 10 minutes.
• For better disinfection, shake the unit gently from side
to side.
• Once this is complete, pour the ethyl alcohol out of
the container.
• Repeat the process, but this time using water.
• Position the medication container (1) so that you can
drip a few drops of ethyl alcohol onto the mesh (2).
Leave this to work for 10 minutes.
• Then clean all the parts again under running water.
Disinfection with boiling water
• The medication container with mesh atomiser should
be placed with the lid open into bubbling, boiling water
together with the mouthpiece for 15 minutes. Contact
between the parts and the hot base of the pan should
be avoided.
• You can also disinfect the medication container with
mesh atomiser and the mouthpiece using a standard
steriliser. For more information, please see the instruc-
tions for use of the steriliser manufacturer.
• The atomiser must not be placed in the microwave.
® Nebuliser compact and its
Note
The masks must not be placed in hot water!
• We recommend disinfecting the masks using a stand-
ard disinfectant.
Drying
• Dry the parts carefully using a soft cloth.
• Shake the mesh atomiser (2) gently from side to side
(5–10 times), so that the water inside the mesh is re-
moved from the tiny holes.
• Place the individual parts on a clean, dry and absor-
bent surface and leave them to dry completely (at least
4 hours).
Note
Please ensure that the parts are completely dry after clean-
ing, otherwise the risk of bacterial growth is increased.
Put the parts together again if these are completely dry
and place the parts in a dry, sealed container.
Ensure that the mesh atomiser (2) is completely dried off
by the shaking. Otherwise, the nebulisation may not work
after reassembling the device.
If this is the case, shake the mesh atomiser (2) again so
that the water can escape. The nebuliser should then work
as normal.
Durability of materials
• The following point should be observed when select-
ing the cleaning product or disinfectant: only use a mild
cleaning product or disinfectant in the concentration and
volume prescribed by the manufacturer.
• As with any plastic parts, the medication container
with mesh atomiser and the accessories are affected
by a certain amount of wear and tear when used and
hygienically prepared on a frequent 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 medica-
tion container with mesh atomiser and the accessories
after no more than a year.
Storage
• Do not store in damp conditions (such as in a bathroom)
and do not transport with any damp items.
• When storing and transporting, protect from prolonged
direct sunlight.
