Beurer IH 50 Mode D'emploi page 7

Note
• Do not clean the mesh or accessories with brushes
or similar, as this may cause irreparable damage, and
this will mean that the intended result of the treat-
ment is no longer guaranteed.
• For additional requirements regarding the necessary
hygienic preparations (hand washing, handling of
medicines or inhalation solutions) in high-risk groups
(e.g. cystic fibrosis patients), contact your doctor.
Cleaning
The mesh atomiser and container, as well as acces-
sories such as mouthpiece, mask, connecting piece,
etc. must be cleaned with hot water after each use.
Carefully dry all components using a soft cloth. Once
all components are fully dry, reassemble the atomiser
and place the components in a dry, sealed container
or carry out disinfection.
• Remove the mouthpiece and any accessories from
the atomiser.
• Add 6 ml of clean water to the medicine container (2)
and switch on the device to first remove any medicine
residue from the mesh. (Please spray the entire liquid).
• Remove the batteries.
• Remove the detachable parts from the device, e.g.
mesh atomiser or medicine container and cover.
Disassembly
To continue with cleaning
its individual components,
disassemble the atomis-
er (2, 3):
• Remove the medicine
container (2) and mesh
atomiser (3) by pressing
both brackets inwards
and drawing the unit
out.
• Remove the mesh
atomiser (3) from the
medicine container (2)
by turning it
anticlockwise and
drawing it out.
• The nebuliser is later
reassembled in the re-
verse order.

Important
Never hold the complete device under running wa-
ter to clean it.
When cleaning, ensure that all residues are removed.
Never use any substances that may be poisonous
when in contact with the skin or mucous membranes,
or when swallowed or inhaled.
If required, you can clean the device casing with a
lightly moistened cloth that has been soaked in mild
soapy water.
• If there is any residue from medical solutions or con-
tamination on the silver-coloured contacts of the de-
vice or atomiser, clean with a cotton bud moistened
with ethyl alcohol.
• Clean the outside of the mesh and outside of the
medicine container with a cotton bud dampened with
ethyl alcohol.
Important
• Before you clean the unit, always switch it off, unplug
it and let it cool off.
• Do not use abrasive detergents and never immerse
the unit in water.
• Ensure that no water penetrates inside the unit!
• Do not put the device or accessories in a dishwasher.
• Do not touch the unit with wet hands while it is
plugged in; do not allow any water to be sprayed
onto the unit. The unit must be operated only when
it is completely dry.
• Do not spray any liquids into the ventilation slots. Any
liquid that penetrates into the unit can damage the
electrical parts or other components of the nebuliser
and impair the function of the device.
Important
We recommend carrying out inhalation without inter-
ruptions since the inhalant may clog the mesh atomiser
during a long pause in treatment, and the effectiveness
of the application may be impaired as a result.
Disinfection
Follow the steps listed below carefully in order to disin-
fect your atomiser and the accessories. It is advisable
to disinfect the individual components after the last
time they are used each day at the latest.
You can disinfect the IH 50 and its accessories in two
different ways, either with ethyl alcohol or in boiling
water.
First clean the atomiser and the accessories as de-
scribed under "Cleaning". You can then continue with
disinfection.
