5. Setup

1. Assemble the Device: Connect the tubing to the main unit and the collection cup. Attach one of the silicone nasal tips securely to the end of the tubing.
2. Power Connection:
   • For S-504: Plug the power adapter into the main unit and then into a wall outlet.
   • For S-303: Open the battery compartment and insert 2 AA batteries, ensuring correct polarity. Close the compartment securely.
3. Stabilize the Unit: The main unit is equipped with suction cups on its base to prevent movement during use. Place it on a flat, stable surface.
4. Initial Cleaning: Before first use, and after each subsequent use, clean all detachable parts as described in the 'Maintenance and Cleaning' section.

6. Operating Instructions

Follow these steps for effective and gentle nasal aspiration:

1. Prepare for Aspiration: Turn on the main unit using the power switch. Before placing the tip in the baby's nostril, aspirate a small amount of clean water through the silicone tip to moisten the tubing and prevent mucus from sticking.
2. Positioning the Baby: Hold your baby in a comfortable and secure position. For younger infants, holding their head gently or wrapping them in a blanket can help keep them calm. For older babies, holding them securely on your lap or between your thighs can be effective.
3. Using the Silicone Tip: Gently pull your baby's cheek slightly outwards to open the nostril. Insert the silicone tip vertically into the nostril, ensuring it forms a seal without pushing too deep.
4. Suctioning: Press and hold the orange button on the silicone tip for 3-4 seconds for each nostril. You may need to adjust the angle slightly to effectively remove mucus. The device offers gentle suction levels to maintain a calmer experience.
5. Repeat if Necessary: Repeat the process for the other nostril. If mucus is particularly thick, you may use saline drops before aspiration to help loosen it.

7. Maintenance and Cleaning

Regular cleaning is crucial for hygiene and optimal performance.

1. Disassembly: After each use, turn off the device and unplug it (if S-504). Detach the silicone tip, tubing, and collection cup from the main unit.
2. Washing: Wash all detachable parts (silicone tip, tubing, collection cup) thoroughly with warm water and mild soap. Ensure all mucus residue is removed.
3. Sanitization: For deeper cleaning, spray some alcohol into the tubing to sanitize it. The parts can also be soaked in a bleach solution for disinfection.
4. Drying: Allow all parts to air dry completely before reassembling. Ensure no moisture remains to prevent mold or bacterial growth.
5. Important: Do not disinfect with heat (e.g., boiling water, microwave, dishwasher) as this can damage the components.

  • Verify that the silicone tip is not clogged. Clean if necessary.
• Weak Suction:
  • Check for any blockages in the tubing or nasal tip.
