Troubleshooting
Problem/Question
The nebulizer produces
little or no aerosol
Output is too low
Which medicines are
suitable for inhalation?
Some inhalation solu-
tion remains in the
nebulizer.
What special steps
should be taken for ba-
bies and children?
Inhalation with the mask
takes longer
Does each user need
their own accessories?
Possible Cause/Remedy
1. Too little medicine in the nebulizer.
2. The nebulizer is not held in an upright position.
3. The medicine is unsuitable for spraying (e.g. too thick, re-
quired viscosity less than 3).
The medicine solution should be specified by the doctor.
1. The batteries are flat. Replace the batteries or connect the
power supply unit and try again.
2. There are air bubbles inside the medicine container which
are preventing the medicine from coming into contact with
the mesh. Please check and remove any air bubbles.
3. Particles on the mesh are inhibiting output. To remove these
dirt particles, fill the nebuliser with 2 - 3 drops of vinegar and
3 - 6 ml of water then nebulise this solution completely.
Please do not inhale this spray and ensure that you clean
and disinfect the medicine container afterwards (see p. 29).
If the output does not improve, replace the mesh.
4. The mesh is worn out.
Only the doctor can advise you which medicine to use to treat
your condition. Consult your doctor.
With the JIH 50, you can spray medicines with a viscosity
lower than 3.
This is normal and occurs for technical reasons. Stop inhal-
ing as soon as you can hear a marked difference in the
sound made by the nebulizer, or when the device switches
off automatically due to insufficient inhalant.
1. In babies, the mask should cover the mouth and nose to
guarantee effective inhalation.
2. In children, the mask should also cover the mouth and nose.
Nebulisation next to a sleeping person is not suitable be-
cause insufficient medicine reaches the lungs.
Note: Children should only use the device with help and under
supervision of an adult. Never leave a child alone with the ne-
bulizer.
This is for technical reasons. Less medicine is inhaled per
breath through the mask holes than using the mouthpiece. The
aerosol is mixed with ambient air through the holes in the
mask.
This is absolutely necessary for hygiene reasons.
