Open door to storage compartment.
Make sure the power switch is in the “Off” position. Unwrap power cord and plug model 4650D into a grounded wall outlet.
Wash hands.
Connect one end of the nebulizer tubing to the compressor air-outlet connector.
Assemble clean nebulizer and add prescribed medication.

Attach tubing to nebulizer air-inlet connector.
Press the power switch “On” to start the compressor.
Begin treatment by placing the mouthpiece between teeth. With mouth closed, inhale deeply and slowly through mouth as aerosol begins to flow, then exhale slowly through the mouthpiece. If treatment needs to be interrupted, simply press power switch “Off.”
If an aerosol mask is used, place the mask over mouth and nose. As aerosol begins to flow, inhale deeply and slowly through mouth, then exhale slowly.
