Inhalator is designed so that the user is protected from
live parts. In a faulty device, this protection may be rendered
ineffective.
If the compressor, the power adapter or the power adapter cable
is visibly damaged, or if you suspect that there is a fault, do not
operate the INQUA
connect the power adapter from the socket immediately and
notify the manufacturer (see back of instructions for use) or your
sales partner.

Inhalator is designed exclusively for indoor use, it is
not intended to be used outdoors.
Follow these instructions regarding the installation location:
WARNING: Risk of damage to the compressor due to overheat-
ing and dust, risk of fire
Air must be able to circulate freely around the compressor to dissi-
pate the heat it generates. If the heat cannot be dissipated ade-
quately, the compressor will be damaged.
Only operate the compressor in locations with low dust contami-
nation and an adequate air supply. The ventilation slits of the
compressor must never be obstructed.
Never operate the compressor while it is still in a bag.
Never cover the compressor while it is in use.
Do not run the compressor on carpets or in very dusty environ-
ments, e.g. under the bed, in workshops etc.
Observe the ambient conditions specified in
section "Environmental conditions for operation", page 38.
Do not operate the compressor in explosion-prone areas or in the
presence of oxidising gases (e.g. oxygen, nitrous oxide, flamma-
ble anaesthetics), or in damp locations.
Protect the power adapter cable from excessive heat and oil.
Do not operate the compressor close to flammable objects such
as curtains, tablecloths, or paper.
