Pressing button A (2) again interrupts the aerosol therapy. 00:06 AEROSOL TPEP o Pressing button B (3) activates the TPEP mode. Ensure that the components have been assembled as indicated in paragraph 4, point (i). Position the nose clip correctly and breathe making sure that the lips are tightly placed around the mouthpiece, aim to maintain the effort indicator in the central area (the smiling face). To achieve a correct therapy, aim to prolong the expiratory phase as much as possible. As soon as the mode is activated a minute counter appears. It is possible during the respiratory exercise session, by pressing and holding the ON/OFF (1) switch, to display the parameters of the current session. To interrupt the TPEP mode, press button B (3) again, until the word TPEP appears. 00:06 AEROSOL NORMAL o The two modes described above can also be activated at the same time by pressing buttons B and A. In this case both minute counters are activated. 00:04 00:34 AEROSOL NORMAL - In selecting the TPEP mode it is possible to choose TWO different levels of resistance: press button B (3) repeatedly for 5 seconds, the words NORMAL or EASY will be displayed in succession which correspond respectively to the respiratory exercise normal and easy. Press to display the required resistance. - At the end of the session, after pressing the corresponding button again in the active mode, turn the device off by pressing and holding the ON/OFF switch for four seconds. - Disconnect the electrical cable from the mains supply and then from the device. - Disconnect the assembled kit and clean and/or dispose of as appropriate. - When switching the device on again after the previous session, the last TPEP mode (i.e. easy or normal) which was set, will appear on the display. 8. CLEANING AND DISINFECTION Always wash your hands before cleaning and disinfecting the device and accessories. Cleaning the device Operator s manual UNIKO-TPEP E MPR118 Rev. 2-09/2010 Pag. 7 /12

8 Never wash the device in water or immerse it; only use a damp cloth with non abrasive and non aggressive detergent. Cleaning the reuseable kit Clean all the components ( with the exception of the nebuliser connecting tube, ref MPR 17, which should be replaced with new tubing in all cases) in hot tap water (approx 40 C) for about 5 minutes adding a small amount of detergent (following the instructions of the detergent manufacturer as to the amount to be used and limitations of use). Rinse freely, making sure that all residues of the detergent have been eliminated. Allow all components to dry thoroughly. It is also possible to clean these accessories in a dishwasher. In this case, select a wash cycle which operates at 50 C, place the separated parts of the nebuliser chamber, the mouthpiece and the tubes, except for nebuliser connecting tube, inside the dishwasher and start the programme. Do not wash the accessories in the dishwasher with any other item. It is possible to disinfect these accessories in boiling water for about minutes. In order to avoid damaging the items, make sure that the water level used is always sufficient to cover them. An alternative is to use chemical sterilisation, which can be readily purchased in a pharmacy, suitable for the disinfection of plastic material (such as Milton, Amuchina etc.) All the nebuliser parts and the accessories (mouthpiece and connector) can be sterilised by autoclave. The cycles to be used are those recommended by the autoclave manufacturer for sterilising plastic and rubber material. The cycle used which is suitable for these materials is 121 C, 110 kpa (1.1 bar) for minutes. At the end of the sterilising process, always allow the accessories and parts to cool completely to ambient air temperature before use. Replace the kit after 20 sterilising cycles. Filters The filters must not be cleaned but replaced. Our replacement guidelines are as follows: The large filter A must be replaced as soon as it becomes wet or dirty and at least weekly. The small filters B must be replaced when dirty and at least monthly. 9. REPLACING THE FUSE AND THE FILTER To replace the fuse, always disconnect from the mains, to avoid electrocution. Open the fuse holder under the electrical socket, on the base of the compressor. Remove the burnt out fuse, using a Philips screwdriver, and replace with a new one with the same electrical specification. ONLY use fuses of 5mm, 250V delayed, T 2A UNIKO-TPEP E is equipped with piston compressors incorporating a protective filter for the motors which must be replaced periodically (once a year). To replace the filter, the cover for this is positioned on the left hand side of the electrical socket, carefully lever the lid marked filter and replace. 10.
