PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The colour markers, which the child can use to colour the bear before the start of inhalation, can be used to colour the device only with preservation of the safety standards. The markers can be easily washed off with a paper towel or cloth. The A500LW09 air compressor nebulizer is a compact device used for respiratory airway inhalation. The device produces a stream of air, which runs thought the transparent tube to the atomiser in order to turn the prescribed medication into a spray mist to make it easier to inhale. The processed medication mist runs through the mouthpiece and can be inhaled by the patient. The device facilitates safe administration of prescribed medication.

Attention: before colouring, please read section 5. SAFETY GUIDELINES

NOTE 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2: These guidelines may not apply in certain cases.

The propagation of electromagnetic waves is changed by absorption and reflection from structures, structures and humans.

It is not possible to accurately theoretically define field strength from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/wireless) telephony and terrestrial portable RF transmitters, amateur AM and RF and TV transmitters. To determine the electromagnetic conditions associated with fixed RF transmitters, measurements of electromagnetic interference at a given location shall be carried out. If the measured field strength at the location where the A500LW09 compressor nebuliser is used exceeds the applicable compliance level indicated above, the A500LW09 compressor nebuliser should be observed in order to verify the correctness of the operation. If abnormal activity is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as repositioning or transfer of the A500LW09 compressor nebuliser.
For the frequency range of 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strength should be less than 3 V/m.

Recommended distance between portable and mobile radio-frequency communication devices and the A500LW09 compressor nebuliser

The A500LW09 compressor nebuliser is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment with limited interference caused by radio waves. The recipient or user of the A500LW09 compressor nebuliser can help reduce electromagnetic interference by maintaining the minimum distance between mobile RF communication devices (transmitters) and the A500LW09 compressor nebuliser according to the following recommendations, up to the maximum rated output power of the communication device

Maximum rated output power of the transmitter(W)| Distance adjusted to the frequency of the transmitter (m)
---|---
| 150 KHz to 80 MHz
| 80 MHz to 800 MHz

In the case of transmitters whose maximum rated output power is not listed above, the recommended distance d in metres (m) may be estimated using the equation suitable for the frequency of the transmitter, where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitters in watts (W) specified by the transmitter manufacturer.

NOTE 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
