    Caution
    ◎ Make sure the mouthpiece is in place before turning the AdheResp on.
    ◎ Do not use sharp objects such as pens to turn the AdheResp on. They may damage the ON/OFF button.
    ◎ If the medication reservoir is not properly attached to the main unit, a long vibration feedback will occur and the AdheResp will not turn on.

  12. Place the key tag within 1 cm of the unlock icon on the back of the main  unit to activate the AdheResp for a predefined activation period of a treatment session. When a valid key tag is detected, the AdheResp will  have a medium vibration and produce initial puff of aerosol. Then, the power indicator will be lit up constantly.
    IMPORTANT: If an invalid key tag is detected, a long vibration feedback will occur.
    IMPORTANT: If there is no correct key tag detected within 2 minutes after turning on the AdheResp, the AdheResp will automatically turn off after a long vibration.

  13. Sit in an upright position and hold the AdheResp vertically (see the following illustrations). Seal your lips around the mouthpiece and breathe normally through your mouth.HCmed HCM-ADP-01 AdheResp Smart Breath Actuated Mesh Nebulizer - around Hold the AdheResp vertically during treatment. Holding the AdheResp at an angle might impair performance. Tilting angle less than 10° is permitted.
    IMPORTANT: When exhaling, it is normal to see some aerosol coming out of the vent holes on the back of the aerosol chamber if you are breathing rapidly. If it keeps happening, try to slow down your breathing frequency.
    IMPORTANT: The breath actuation function can only be triggered by inhalation of sufficient intake force, and you will feel a short vibration for each successfully triggered nebulization. This is an indication to let you know the medication is being delivered.
    IMPORTANT: Avoid shallow breathing. Breathe deeply to increase the aerosol reaching your lungs.
    IMPORTANT: Breathing through your nose during the treatment will not trigger the breath actuation function. Holding your nose for a few breaths will help you get used to the feeling of breathing through your mouth.
    Caution
    ◎ When you breathe through the AdheResp, make sure you hold it vertically.
    ◎ The mesh mechanism could be damaged if no liquid medication contacts the mesh during inhalation.
    ◎ Do not cover the vent holes on the back of the aerosol chamber when holding the AdheResp.
    ◎ Do not press the reservoir release buttons when holding the AdheResp.

  14. Continue to breathe through the AdheResp until you feel two consecutive short vibrations. The two short vibrations let you know that your medication has been fully delivered and the treatment is complete.
    AdheResp will automatically switch off after two short vibrations, and all LED indicators will turn off.
    IMPORTANT: If you hold the AdheResp in a tilted position, that will make medication not contact the mesh and the liquid detection pin at the  bottom of the container, causing the AdheResp to turn off automatically to protect the mesh mechanism.
    IMPORTANT: You could open the medication container lid to check the residual volume of medication. If the residual medication level is above the liquid detection pin (as shown in the right figure), you could close the medication container lid and turn on the AdheResp again to complete the treatment within the activation period after activating the AdheResp with a key tag.  Caution
    ◎ Complete the treatment within the predefined activation period for one treatment session, or the AdheResp will turn off and return to the inactivated status. You will have to use a valid key tag to activate it again as described in  Step 12.
    ◎ The quantity of the key tag or its valid credits is usually the same as the number of prescribed treatments. Repeating device activation during the same treatment session may result in lacking keys or valid credits to complete all the prescribed treatments.
