See user guide
Cleaning and storage after use
- Clean components after heavy use or liquid exposure.
- Wipe components with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove stains and glue residue
- The nasal airways typically do not require cleaning of the lubrication. However, if you notice increased resistance during insertion of the NPA, gently rinse the nasal airway with clean water.
Store as directed in the packing instructions inside the backpack. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and temperatures above 35°C.
Storage
- Temperature; 20°C
- Relative humidity: 5-95%
