NASAL SPRAY USAGE
Nasal cleaning is a special added feature/ function for the Babybelle nebulizer and it can be achieved by follows:
1. Remove the cap (turn counter-clockwise) of the Nasal Spray bottle and fill it with the appropriate volume of physiological saline (9% saline).
2. Place the cap back and turn clockwise to close the Nasal Spray Bottle.
3. Connect one end of the Air Tubing to the Air Outlet Connector “A2” (below the mark A on the nebulizer) and the other end to the Nasal Spray Bottle set “E” (Bottle body marked with A).

5. Switch “On” the nebulizer by pressing the switch ”A1”.
6. Block the pressure release hole on the cap with your index finger and saline will start spraying though the Spray Nozzle on the cap (blocking the pressure release hole controls the suction pressure - If the pressure release hole is completely closed, it attains the maximum spray pressure. If the hole is open, there is no spray pressure).
7. Now you can clean the patient’s nasal cavity using the saline spraying through the Spray Nozzle.
NOTE: To ensure proper operation of this function, DO NOT connect the Nasal Spray
Bottle set to the air inlet connector on the nebulizer while using this function
8. When cleaning is finished, switch off the nebulizer by pressing the switch “A1” and unplug the nebulizer from the wall socket.

3. Grip the Suction Bottle firmly in the hand and block the pressure release hole by index finger to control the suction pressure.
4. If the pressure release hole is completely closed, it attains the maximum suction pressure. If the hole is open, there is no suction. Adjust the suction pressure according to the situation during use.
5. DO NOT insert the Suction Nozzle too deep into the nasal cavity or it may injure the soft tissue inside the nasal cavity.
6. To achieve a better suction, clean the nasal cavity by warm water prior to the Suction Bottle usage and rest for 3 minutes.
