• Disposable nebulizers are NOT dishwasher safe.
• Use a clean, damp cloth to wipe the exterior of the compressor housing.
• Cleaning the nebulizer after each treatment is not enough. The tubing
and accessories MUST also be regularly sterilized and disinfected
between treatments to prevent serious or fatal illness caused by
contamination.

on hand at all times in case original parts become lost, damaged,
or soiled.

the dealer where you purchased your nebulizer.
