Information
The OMRON NE U07 is a nebuliser for the inhalation of medical aerosols to treat asthma, chronic bronchitis and other respiratory tract disorders. This nebuliser is suitable for commonly
used inhalation solutions. Use only the medication prescribed
by your doctor. Type and duration of the inhalation must be
carried out according to the recommendations of your doctor.
The OMRON NE U07 produces a very low particle size
distribution and therefore a medication vapour that will reach
effectively and reliably to the upper and lower respiratory
passages.
The OMRON NE U07 can be used automatically with constant
aerosol-delivery function or intermittently by an interrupt
switch.
The OMRON NE U07 is suitable for inhalation both at home
and in hospital or a doctor’s practice.
The OMRON NE U07 nebuliser corresponds to the appropriate
CE regulations.

Safety
Precautions
Please read the following instructions carefully, as they contain
important information concerning the setting up, use and
maintenance of your new nebuliser.
• Keep this manual for future reference.
• As soon as you have unpacked the nebuliser, check it for
visible damage or defects. In particular check for cracks in
the plastic housing, which could expose electrical components. If this is the case or if you are in doubt, contact an
authorized dealer or the OMRON Customer Service directly.
• Only use the nebuliser for its intended purpose, that means
for inhalation therapy. Any other form of use constitutes an
improper use and is therefore dangerous. The manufacturer
cannot be held liable for any damage caused by improper or
incorrect use.
• Never open the main unit.
• Do not use the nebuliser while you are in a bath or shower.
• Some parts of the unit are so small that they could be swallowed by small children. Do not let unattended children
have access to the unit.
• Make sure that the electrical rating shown on the rating
plate on the bottom of the unit corresponds to your mains
voltage and frequency before plugging in the nebuliser.
• If the power plug provided with the nebuliser does not fit
your wall socket, have the plug changed by an electrical
appliance dealer. Do not use an adapter. If you use an extension cable mains adapter make sure not to connect too
many appliances simultaneously so that the maximum load
is not exceeded.
• Always disconnect the nebuliser from the power supply
before commencing cleaning.
This appliance is designed for short term operation only.
The unit mustn’t be operated for longer than 30 minutes.
Please allow 30 minutes between two operations.
When using any electrical appliance certain important safety
measures must always be observed, which include the following:
• The unit is not protected against water penetration, so:
Never submerse the nebuliser in water.
Never touch the unit when your hands are wet or moist.
If it falls into a filled bathtub or sink, first disconnect the
power supply plug from the wall socket, before attempting
to retrieve it. Immediately contact an authorized dealer or
the OMRON Customer Service and have the unit inspected.
Do not use the unit before this inspection and any necessary repairs have been carried out.
• Do not allow unsupervised children or infirm persons to use
the unit.
• Do not disconnect the unit by simply pulling out the plug
from the wall socket. Always switch the unit off first.
• Do not leave the nebuliser running unattended. Always
switch the unit off and then unplug it when it is in use.
• Do not leave the unit outdoors or in a humid environment.
Never store the unit in direct sunlight.
• Do not operate the unit in the presence of anaesthetic mixtures which are inflammable when they come into contact
with air, oxygen or nitrous oxide.
• If you discover that the nebuliser is damaged or does not
operate properly, switch it off immediately and stop using
it. Any repairs must be carried out by an authorized dealer
using only original OMRON spare parts. Any part of the
unit may only be repaired or replaced by the manufacturer
or the OMRON Customer Service.
• Keep the power cable away from heated or hot surfaces.
• The power cable should always be fully unwound in order
to prevent dangerous overheating.
• If the power cable or the power supply plug become damaged, consult an authorized dealer / service agent or contact
the OMRON Customer Service. Never operate the unit
with a damaged power cable or plug.

Information
on inhalation
Never submerge or wet the AC power unit or cord. Doing so
could result in electrical shock.
Never operate the unit with the water tank empty. Use only
water in the tank. Solutions other than water may cause damage to the transducer.
Change the water in the water tank after each use.
Warning: Never remove the cover during operation – severe
injury could occur.
When inhaling you should sit upright and relaxed. You should
sit at a table and not in an armchair as otherwise you will constrict your respiratory passages and impair the effect of inhalation. If you must be treated in bed, support yourself with
pillows so that you will sit as upright as possible.
One tr
eatment should not last longer than 15 minutes. Consult
your doctor concerning the appropriate inhalation time.
Preparation

Correct
water level
NE-U07
➀Filling cooling water
Before filling cooling water or medication, be sure the power is
OFF ( ). (Nebuliser lamp is OFF and the power cord is unplugged).
Remove the cover by slightly pushing the rear part of the cover to
move it upwards.
Lift the medication cup holder by slightly pushing the front panel
of the tank holder and lifting it up.
➁Filling Medication
Place the nebuliser on a table or another flat and stable surface.
Fill the water tank ( with tap water or distilled water) to the
correct level. (In between the two lines).
Caution:
1. Never fill the water tank with solutions other than water.
Damage to the transducer could occur.
2. Be sure to fill the water tank to the proper level. The unit
will not operate if the water level is low.
Place medication directly into the medication cup.
• Never use more than 10 ml of solution.
• Be sure all parts are clean before operating.
Always be calm and relaxed when you inhale. Allow time for
the inhalation to take effect after you have finished using the
nebuliser.
Breathe in slowly and deeply so that the medication can reach
deep into the fine bronchial tubes. Hold your breath for a short
time, then breathe out slowly. Do not try to breathe too quickly.
Take a pause when you feel like having it.
Before using the nebuliser for the first time it must be cleaned
according to the cleaning instructions.
