How to Disinfect the Unit
The Micro-Air ® nebulizer can be cleaned and disinfected easily because the Medication
Bottle and the Mesh Cap can be removed from the Main Unit. The unit can
be disinfected with benzalkonium chloride.
1
Open the Mesh Cap.
2
Remove the Mesh Cap from the
Medication Bottle.
3
Install a new Mesh Cap.
You can usually use the Mesh Cap for approximately 1 year (according to the test results of OMRON).
However, this may vary depending on medication type and individual use and care. In some cases,
the unit may not nebulize or may nebulize weakly even after disinfection is done.
If the unit does not nebulize or nebulizes poorly even after cleaning the Mesh Cap,
purchase a new Mesh Cap from your nearest Omron dealer or where you purchased your unit from.
The part number is U22-4.

your thumb on the brim.

Wipe off the remaining water for faster drying.
