General Advice
The device is designed for using suction to remove nasal
secretions and mucus in Children (age newborn to 12 years
old) in your home environment.
1
General Advice CONTINUED
1. Do not expose the device to extreme temperature, very
high humidity level, or direct sunlight.
2. Avoid extreme shock, stress on or dropping of the device.
It is not shock proof.
3. Replace the batteries when the power and/or the sound of
the pump weakens during the use of the device.
4. It is recommended that you remove the batteries if the
device will not be used for a period of time.
5. Pressing and holding the power button starts the device
and generates vacuum for the removal of nasal secretions
and mucus. To stop the suction, simply release the power
button to turn it off.
6. Only a few seconds of suction at a time are necessary.
7. This Nasal Aspirator is for cleaning/removal of nasal
secretions only. Do not use this device other than for its
intended purposes.
8. During the use of the device, the baby/child should not
hold their breath, close their mouth or swallow. This will
help to avoid vacuum pressure resulting in an eardrum
pressure imbalance.
9. If the baby/child does not feel well when using the device,
stop and consult a doctor immediately.
10. Do not apply excessive force when placing the aspiration
tip into the nasal cavity.
11. This device is for home use only. Please consult a doctor in
case of nasal diseases.
12. The aspirator tips should be cleaned after each and every
use.

13. The operators of this device shall be adults or individuals
who can follow the instructions and notices outlined in this
user’s manual. This device is not intended for use by
children themselves. Keep the nasal aspirator stored
away from children. Children should NEVER operate the
device themselves.
14. DO NOT use the Nasal Aspirator when the baby/child has
the following contraindications:
Nasal bleeding
Acute head, facial, or neck injury
Coagulopathy or bleeding disorder
15. Before using the device, please read this User’s Manual
carefully. Incorrect use of the device may cause the
following hazards/complications:
Mechanical trauma
Nasal irritation/bleeding
Mucosal hemorrhage
Discomfort and pain
NOTE: This Nasal Aspirator must only be used with the tips
supplied with the device.
WARNINGS
Failure to follow these warnings and the assembly
instructions could result in serious injury or death.
Modifications not authorized by the manufacturer may
void user’s authority to operate this device.

WARNINGS CONTINUED
WARNING: This product is not a toy. Do not allow
children to play with it. Individual parts may present a
choking hazard.
Keep Nasal Aspirator away from heat sources, such as
fireplaces, radiators, stoves, and TVs or other appliances.
Heat can damage the case or electrical parts.
DO NOT use the Nasal Aspirator Unit if it has been
dropped or is damaged.
DO NOT OPEN THE NASAL ASPIRATOR. There are NO
user-serviceable parts inside the unit. Risk of electrical
shock, fire or death.
Do not drop the device! Protect it from severe impact
and shock.
Keep out of the reach of children when not in use.
NOTE: Do not microwave.
CAUTION: Never insert the aspirator too far into the
nostril. Never place the tip firmly against the inside wall
of the nostril. This aspirator is for cleaning congestion in
nasal passages. Do not use this device for anything other
than its intended purpose.
Do not modify this device in any way.
NEVER use on ears, mouth, or eyes.
NOTE: Please consult with your physician on when and
how often you should aspirate your baby/child’s nasal
passages.

Battery Safety
When changing the batteries, use batteries of the same
type, make and capacity.
Always replace both batteries at the same time.
Never mix alkaline, standard carbon-zinc or rechargeable
batteries in the same device. Do not mix old and new
batteries.
Use batteries free of heavy metals.
Dispose of used batteries in accordance to your state and
local regulations. Never dispose of batteries in the normal
household waste.
Keep the batteries out of children’s reach.
Batteries may leak battery acid; if mixed with a different
battery type, if inserted incorrectly (put in backwards) or
if all batteries are not replaced or recharged at the same
time.
Batteries may explode or leak battery acid if disposed of in
fire or when charging a battery that is not specifically made
to be recharged. Never recharge a cell of one type in a
recharger made for a cell of another type.
Discard leaky batteries immediately. They can cause skin
burns or other injury. When discarding batteries, be sure to
dispose of them in the proper manner, according to your
state and local regulations.
Always remove batteries before storing or if product will
not be used for a prolonged period of time. Batteries left in
the unit may leak and cause damage.

Instruction for Use
1. There are two Tips to choose from. The large tip is
recommended for use when the mucus is in a thicker,
more solid form. The narrow tip is recommended for use
when the mucus is loose and in a liquid form or when
nostril opening is smaller.
Large Tip
Narrow Tip
2. Be sure to place the tip securely on the aspirator. The Tip
must completely cover the rib before using.

4.
Hold the baby/child upright and insert the tip into the
nostril until the tip seals the nostril. Be careful not to
place the tip too far into the nostril or press against the
inside wall of the nostril.
Press and hold the power
button to activate and
allow the suction to clear
the mucus. Only a few
seconds of suction at a
time are necessary.
Repeat in the other
nostril or as needed.
Care and Cleaning
1. Separate the suction portion from the base of the aspirator
by gently pulling it apart.
2. Unscrew collection cup by turning it counter clockwise.
3. Remove white rubber ring located where collection cup
screws in.
DISASSEMBLING YOUR ASPIRATOR
BASE
HELPFUL HINTS:
If needed, block the opposite nostril for more effective
suctioning.
A small amount of saline mist may help to loosen thicker
mucus.
Opening the baby/child’s mouth will help reduce ear
pressure discomfort.
Note: The mucus may not immediately appear in the
collection cup. After each use we recommend a quick
cleaning of the used tip by removing it from the unit
and thoroughly rinsing under warm tap.

where P is the maximum output power
rating of the transmitter in watts (W)
according to the transmitter manufacturer
and d is the recommended separation
distance in meters (m).
Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters, as
determined by an electromagnetic site
survey³, should be less than the compliance
level in each frequency rangeb.
Interference may occur in the vicinity of
equipment marked with the following
symbol:
NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic
propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and
people.

a. Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio
(cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM
radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy.
To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an
electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength
in the location in which the NS14 Nasal Aspirator is used exceeds the applicable
RF compliance level above, the NS14 Nasal Aspirator should be observed to verify
normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may
be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the NS14 Nasal Aspirator.
b. Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3
V/m.
Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF
communications equipment and the NS14 Nasal Aspirator
The NS14 Nasal Aspirator is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in
which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the NS14
Nasal Aspirator can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a
minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment
(transmitters) and the NS14 Nasal Aspirator as recommended below, according to
the maximum output power of the communications equipment.

equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P is the maximum
output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter
manufacturer.
