man on the side of the activation button (5a) allowing activation of the nasal douche with the
thumb, or with the little man on the opposite side of the button in order to allow activation with
the index finger.

applied, with a finger.

phases of point 2.6, it is advisable to carry out the application alternating the two nasal openings
after about 15 seconds, with breaks necessary to allow for the discharge of mucus.
