Intended use
The compressor nebulizer IN 165 from medicine is an aerosol therapy system

Preparing the device
Before the first use, we recommend cleaning all components – as described in
the chapter ”Cleaning and disinfection”. In between, you can charge the device
with the USB cable w and USB charging adapter e included. To do this, connect
the larger of the two connectors of the cable to the USB charging adapter and
plug the other end of the cable into the charging socket 3 of the inhaler. The
charge level is displayed with the 4 LEDs 2.
Application
- Open the nebulizer 8 by turning the cover anticlockwise.
- Make sure the atomizer head is properly seated on the cylindrical head of the nebulizer.

After you have finished inhaling for the amount of time recommended by your

button 1 in order to switch off the device and remove the plug from the
