Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the OMRON Comp Air Elite.
This product was developed in conjunction with respiratory therapists for the
successful treatment of asthma, chronic bronchitis, allergies and other respiratory
disorders. The compressor forces air to the nebuliser. When the air enters the
nebuliser, it converts the prescribed medication into an aerosol of microscopic
droplets that can easily be inhaled.
The Comp Air Elite is a medical device. Operate this device only as instructed by
your doctor and/or respiratory therapist.

Important safety instructions
Read all the information in the instruction manual and any other literature included
in the box before using the device.
When using an electrical product, especially when children are present, basic
safety precautions should always be followed including the following:
Warning:
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in
serious injury.
(Usage)
• For type, dose, and regime of medication follow the instructions of your doctor or
respiratory therapist.
• Do not use only water in the nebuliser, for nebulising purposes.
• Clean and disinfect the nebuliser kit, mouthpiece and optional nosepiece or
masks before using them for the first time after purchase, if the device has not
been used for a long period of time, or if more than one person uses the same
device.
• Be sure to wash the parts after use, and ensure that they are thoroughly
disinfected and dried, and stored in a clean location.
• Keep the device out of the reach of unsupervised infants and children. The
device may contain small pieces that can be swallowed.
• Store the device and accessories in a clean location.
• Do not store the air tube while there is moisture or medication remaining inside it.
• Always rinse the nebulising parts with clean hot tap water after disinfecting them.
Never leave the cleaning solution in the medication tank or mouthpiece.
• Do not use or store the device where it may be exposed to noxious fumes or
volatile substances.
• Do not use the device where it may be exposed to flammable gas.
• Make sure that the nebuliser kit is clean before use.
• Always dispose of any remaining medication after use, and use fresh medication
each time.
• Do not use in anaesthetic or ventilator breathing circuits.
(Risk of electrical shock)
• When using the optional rechargeable battery, always charge the battery fully
using the battery charger specially designed for this device. If the battery is
frequently used without being fully charged, the capacity of the battery will be
reduced and the device may stop during use. In this case have an alternative
power source, such as the AC adapter ready.

Important safety instructions
General Safety Precautions:
• Inspect the device and parts before using them each time, and check that there
are no problems. In particular, be sure to check the following:
- That the vaporiser head, nozzle or air tube are not damaged.
- That the nozzle is not blocked.
- That the compressor operates normally.
• When using this device, there will be some noise and vibration caused by the
pump in the compressor. There will also be some noise caused by the emission
of compressed air from the nebuliser kit. This is normal and does not indicate a
malfunction, or reduce the working life of the device.
• Limit use to 20 minutes at a time, and allow a 40 minute interval before using the
device again.
• Operate the device only as intended. Do not use the device for any other
purpose.
• Do not use the device at temperatures greater than +40°C.
• Do not spill liquid or medication on the battery connector, optional rechargeable
battery or charger connectors, or allow them to become dusty. Immediately wipe
off the liquid or dust with gauze or other absorbent material.
• Make sure that the air tube is securely attached to the compressor (main unit)
and nebulising parts, and does not come loose. Twist the air tube slightly when
inserting it into the connectors to avoid the tube disconnecting during use.
• The AC adapter is provided so that the unit can be completely isolated from the
power source. To completely isolate the unit from the power source unplug the
AC adapter from the power source.
Read and follow the “Correct Disposal of This Product” in the Technical Data
Section when disposing of the device and any used accessories or optional parts.
Save these instructions for future reference.

Cleaning Parts After Use (Section 5)
Note: Failure to clean the nebulising parts
after use may lead to infection.
How the nebuliser kit works
The compressed air from the
compressor is forced through the
nozzle, as it does so, it is mixed with
the medication in the vaporiser head
and forced upwards. The medication
is then turned into a fine aerosol and
directed upwards by the baffle,
where it is broken down into many
smaller aerosol particles.

Care and maintenance
5. Cleaning and daily disinfecting
5.1 Cleaning
Following the cleaning instructions after each use will prevent any remaining
medication in the tank from drying, resulting in the device not nebulising effectively
and also for preventing infections.
Warning:
Thoroughly rinse the nebuliser and the mask, nosepiece or mouthpiece with
clean hot tap water after each use, and disinfect the parts of the nebuliser kit
and applicable inhalation attachments after the last treatment of the day.
Note: Do not start operation before the cleaned parts are completely dried.
1. Make sure that the power indicator is out.
Power Indicator
2. Disconnect the AC adapter from the wall outlet
and the compressor.
3. Remove the nebuliser kit from the air tube and disassemble the nebuliser
kit. (see Section 3)
4. Discard any remaining medication in the
medication tank.

7. If the compressor is dirty, wipe it clean with a soft
Mild Detergent
cloth moistened with water or mild detergent.
Caution: The compressor is not
waterproof.
8. If the outside of the air tube is dirty, wipe it clean
with a soft cloth moistened with water or mild detergent.
9. Reassemble the nebuliser kit. Put the parts in a dry, sealed bag and place
in the storage pocket of the carrying bag.
Note: Nebuliser kit should be replaced after using for 6 months.
5.2 Disinfecting the nebulising parts
Always clean before disinfection. (See Section 5.1)
Always disinfect the medication tank, mouthpiece and other nebulising parts after
the last treatment of the day. To disinfect the parts, use one of the methods
described below:
A. Use a commercially available disinfectant. Follow the instructions provided by
the disinfectant manufacturer.
1. Submerge the parts in the cleansing solution for the specified period.
2. Remove the parts and discard the solution.
3. Rinse the parts with clean hot tap water, shake off excess water and allow
to air dry in a clean environment.
B. Parts may be boiled between 15 to 20 minutes (except for PVC mask).
After boiling, carefully remove the parts, shake off excess water and allow to air dry
in a clean environment.

Page 22
7. Changing the air filter
On average, the air filter should be changed every 60 days or so, or when the filter
has changed colour from white.
1. Pull the air filter cover off the compressor.
2. Change the air filter.
Remove the old air filter with a sharp object,
such as a toothpick, and insert the new air
filter.
3. Put the air filter cover back in place.
Notes:
• Use only OMRON air filters designed for this
unit. Do not operate without a filter.
• There is no front or back orientation for the
air filters.
• Check that air filters are clean and free of dust before inserting them.
• Do not attempt to wash or clean the filter. If the air filter becomes wet,
replace it. Damp air filters can cause blockages.
• To prevent the air filter cover from becoming blocked, wash the cover
regularly. Do not boil the air filter cover.
Remove the air filter cover, wash it, and make sure it is dry and
reattached correctly.
• Please contact your OMRON dealer for additional air filters, or if the parts
supplied with the device are damaged or missing.

8. Troubleshooting
Symptom Cause Remedy
The device is very hot.
The device stops soon when
using the optional
rechargeable battery, or
operation time is short.
The compressor is covered
by a cloth.
Is the optional rechargeable
battery charged sufficiently?
