CLEANING THE SIDESTREAM NEBULIZER

NOTE: Refer to AFTER THE TREATMENT in the OPERATING section of this

The air filter cleans the air that you use during treatment. The air filter

gets dirty over time and will need to be replaced. As soon as the air

filter no longer looks white and clean (approximately 3 months) it

should be changed.
NOTE: The air filter will need to be changed more regularly if used in an

environment with excessive dirt or smoke.
1. Remove the air filter cover and the dirty air filter.
2. Insert a clean air filter and replace the air filter cover.
3. Dispose of dirty air filter.
