Compressor overheats. The compressor
has an internal thermal protector to
prevent the device from overheating. If the
internal temperature reaches the preset
level, the unit will automatically shut down,
and the ON/OFF button light will turn red.
Turn the unit OFF for a minimum of 40
minutes to allow the compressor to cool.
The compressor does not operate.
Check all power sources to the compressor.
Push the ON/OFF button again.
The device is noisy.
Check that the filter cover is correctly
positioned.
Medication does not nebulize properly.
Check for proper connection of the

Make sure the nebulizer is not empty.
Clean the nebulizer as described in
the manual.
Replace the nebulizer.
Check the intake filter and replace it if it
is dirty.
Compressor does not work, and the
ON/OFF button light is red.
The thermal protector has been activated
due to:
a. The device operating outside the
conditions outlined in this manual.

Allow the compressor to cool down for
a minimum of 40 minutes. Wait until the
red light turns off before turning the

Electromagnetic Information
Portable and RF communication devices such as cellular phones, pagers, etc. can interrupt operation of electrical
medical equipment. For this reason, your compressor must be placed far enough away from these devices to prevent
interference. This device meets the IEC60601-1-2 Standard for Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC).
