Parts Description
The ME8202X is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specified
below.
The customer or the user of the ME8202X should assure that it is used in such
an environment.
Emissions| Compliance| Electromagnetic environment – guidance
RF emissions CISPR 11| Group 1| The ME8202X uses RF energy only for its
internal function. Therefore, its RF emissions are very low and are not likely
to cause any interference in nearby electronic equipment.
RF emissions CISPR 11| Class B| The ME8202X is suitable for use in all
establishments, including domestic establishments and those directly connected
to the public low-voltage power supply network that supplies buildings used
for domestic purposes.

to any part of the device, including cables, than the recommended separation
distance calculated from the equation applicable to the frequency of the
transmitter.
Recommended separation distance
where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W)
according to the transmitter manufacturer and d is the recommended separation
distance in metres (m).
Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters, as determined by an
electromagnetic site survey, a should be less than the compliance level in
each frequency range.b
Interference may occur in the vicinity of equipment marked with the following
symbol:
NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic
propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects
and people.
a. Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio
(cellular/ cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and
FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with
accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF
transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the
measured field strength in the location in which the ME8202X is used exceeds
the applicable RF compliance level above, the ME8202X should be observed to
verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional
measures may be necessary, such as re-orienting or relocating the ME8202X.
Instructions for Use
-
Separate the upper cover away from the lower cover in a straight direction. Do not bend the covers by brute force as it can be slid open easily.
-
Insert 2 x 1.5V AA alkaline batteries with the correct polarity as shown.
-
Check to make sure that the two silicone rings are properly seated on the grooves. Close the covers until the “click” sound is heard.
-
Choose the suitable silicone tip based on the size of patient’s nostrils.
-
Be sure to place the silicone tip securely on the mucus cup.
-
Gently insert the silicone tip into patient’s nostril.
Do not insert it too deeply. -
Press the button for a few seconds to collect mucus.
Stop pressing the button when finished using the device and then the power will be stopped. If the accumulated volume of mucus is nearly over the safe capacity of the mucus cup (about 4 mL), follow the section of “ Clean Instructions” to clean the device rst. Do not use the device if the mucus level is nearly over the opening channel (where the arrow points to on the right).
Helpful Hints
- A small amount of saline mist may help loosen thicker mucus.
- Block the opposite nostril for more effective suctioning if needed.
Clean Instructions
-
Be sure that the upper and lower covers are closed firmly before cleaning the device.
-
Hold the mucus cup with your thumb and index finger.
-
Remove the mucus cup from the collar
-
Remove the siicone tip from the mucus cup.
-
Remove thesilicone rings from the collar.
-
Thoroughly brush and rinse all surfaces and interior of silicone tip, mucus cup, and silicone rings. Ensure all spaces are properly deaned and no visibie residucs remain on these parts.
-
Fill a pot with clean water and boil it.
Put silicone tip, mucus cup, and silicone rings in boiling water and stir them for 3~5 minutes. Do not leave the parts in boiling water for too long. Do not leave the pot unattended during boiling.
Be careful not to take the parts out of the boiling water with bare hands to avoid burns. -
Clean the collar with mild soap thoroughly for a minute. Make sure that the pillar inside the collar is thoroughly cleaned, especially the air vent.
-
Rinse the collar under the tap.
-
Dry the parts with a clean cloth, or leave them to dry completely before assembling them.
-
Reassemble all parts as shown below:
-
Be sure that all parts fit tightly together on the device.
