Instructions for use
Wash hands thoroughly and clean the device. The ampoule and accessories are for personal use only to avoid any risk of infection by contagion. This device is suitable for the administration of medicinal and non-medicinal substances for which aerosol administration is indicated; such substances must, however, be prescribed by a doctor. In the case of excessively dense substances, dilution with a suitable physiological solution may be necessary, according to medical prescription.

During application, it is advisable to adequately protect against any dripping.
Insert the power cable into a mains socket corresponding to the appliance's voltage. At the end of use, unplug the appliance from the mains socket; the socket must be positioned so that disconnection from the mains is not difficult. Insert the nozzle into the upper part. Insert the speed selector into the upper part. Pour the medicine prescribed by the doctor into the lower part. Close the nebulizer by turning the upper part clockwise. Connect the accessories.
Sit comfortably holding the nebulizer, place the mouthpiece in your mouth or use the nasal attachment or mask. If using the mask accessory, place it on the face with or without the elastic band. Turn on the appliance by pressing the switch and inhale and exhale deeply. It is recommended to hold your breath for a moment after inhalation so that the inhaled aerosol droplets can settle. Then exhale slowly.
Once the application is complete, turn off the appliance and unplug it. If, after the therapeutic session, a clear deposit of moisture forms inside the tube, disconnect the tube from the nebulizer and dry it with the compressor's ventilation; this action prevents possible mould growth inside the tube.

RF7 Dual Speed Nebulizer
Professional, fast, suitable for the administration of all types of drugs, including the most expensive ones, even in patients with chronic pathologies. Thanks to the geometries of the internal conduits of the RF7 Dual Speed nebulizer, a granulometry suitable and active for the treatment down to the lower respiratory tract has been achieved.
To speed up the inhalatory therapy, position the speed selector button by pressing the MAX inscription with a finger. To make the inhalatory therapy more effective, press the MIN inscription on the speed selector with a finger. In this position, the speed selector acts as a valve and allows nebulization of the optimal amount of drug down to the lower respiratory tract, reducing its dispersion into the environment.
Cleaning, sanitisation and disinfection
Turn off the appliance before any cleaning operation and unplug the mains cable from the socket.
• Appliance and outside of the tube: use only a cloth moistened with a non-abrasive detergent free of solvents of any kind.
• Accessories: open the nebulizer by turning the upper part anti-clockwise, detach the nozzle and the speed selector from the upper part. Then proceed according to the instructions below.

1. SANITISATION
Before and after each use, sanitise the ampoule and accessories by choosing one of the following methods:
- method A: sanitise the accessories under hot potable water (approx. 40 °C) with mild dishwashing detergent (non-abrasive);
- method B: sanitise the accessories in a dishwasher with a hot cycle;
- method C: sanitise the accessories by immersing them in a solution with 50% water and 50% white vinegar, then rinse thoroughly with hot potable water (approx. 40 °C).
After sanitising the accessories, shake them vigorously and place them on a paper towel, or alternatively dry them with a jet of hot air (e.g. hairdryer).

2. DISINFECTION
After sanitising the ampoule and accessories, disinfect them by choosing one of the following methods:
- method A: obtain an electrolytic chloroxidising disinfectant, specific for disinfection, available in all pharmacies. Fill a container of suitable size to hold all the individual components to be disinfected with a solution of potable water and disinfectant, respecting the proportions indicated on the disinfectant packaging itself. Completely immerse each individual component in the solution, taking care to avoid the formation of air bubbles in contact with the components. Leave the components immersed for the period of time indicated on the disinfectant packaging, and associated with the concentration chosen for the preparation of the solution. Retrieve the disinfected components and rinse them thoroughly with warm potable water. Dispose of the solution according to the instructions provided by the disinfectant manufacturer;
- method B: disinfect the accessories by boiling them in water for 10 minutes; use demineralised or distilled water to avoid limescale deposits;
- method C: disinfect the accessories with a hot steam steriliser for baby bottles (not microwave). Follow the process faithfully according to the steriliser's instructions. For effective disinfection, choose a steriliser with an operating cycle of at least 6 minutes.
After disinfecting the accessories, shake them vigorously and place them on a paper towel, or alternatively dry them with a jet of hot air (e.g. hairdryer). At the end of each use, store the appliance complete with accessories in a dry place and protected from dust.
