INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing this Veridian Steam Inhaler. PLEASE READ THIS INSTRUC TION
MANUAL COMPLETELY BEFORE USING YOUR UNIT TO ENSURE SAFE AND EFFECTIVE
USE, AS WELL AS LONG LIFE OF THE PRODUCT.
The included two mask sizes allow this product to serve the dual purposes of hot steam
inhalation therapy and facial beauty treatments. Steam inhalation therapy is a natural means
for helping to relieve the congestion of bronchitis, the common cold, allergies and a variety of
other respiratory and sinus ailments. Steam inhalation opens up congested sinuses and lung
passages, allowing you to discharge mucus, breathe more easily and heal faster. Steam facials
open the pores of the skin, helping to naturally remove dirt and residue build-up without the
use of harsh soaps and chemicals.

FACE MASK SELECTION
This steam inhaler includes two mask styles—a small nose/mouth style and a large facial
style. Detailed instructions for use of the different mask styles are found on pages 8 thru 12 of
this manual.
The small nose/mouth style mask is suitable for

direct the steam into the mouth and nose. The user’s
mouth and nose should t comfortably into the
mask; the notched portion at the top of the mask
allows room for the bridge of the nose.
The large facial style mask is suitable for use with
hot steam facials or aromatherapy. The large cone of
this mask allows the steam to penetrate the skin
pores around the cheeks, mouth, nose and chin. The

with the mask, even when keeping the eyes closed.
NEVER REST YOUR FACE ON THE MASK. THE MASKS ARE PLASTIC AND

steam lessens and quits, approximately 6-9 minutes.
