Directions for use
Inserting the batteries
• Open the battery compartment on the underside of the base unit 1.
(See Fig. 9.)
• Insert two CR2302 batteries. Pay attention to the polarity.
(See Fig. 0.)
• Close the battery compartment.

Notes on the batteries
• If a humming sound is heard five times in a row, the batteries are (almost) empty. Replace the old batteries with new batteries.
• Remove the batteries if you do not use the device for one month (or longer). This prevents damage to the device caused by leaking batteries.
• Rechargeable batteries (i.e. accumulators) are not suitable.
• Do not use a new battery in combination with a used battery.
Do not use batteries of different types.
• Battery acid must not come into contact with your eyes. If this happens, rinse the eyes immediately with plenty of clean water and consult a doctor.
• Check that the battery compartment is intact and undamaged before inserting the batteries
Insert the nose probe 4 into the base unit 1.
• Insert the nose piece 6 as far into the nose as is still comfortable.
By pressing on the angled adjustment 5 on both sides, the nose probe can be inserted into and removed from the nose more easily.
• Press the on/off button 2 to switch on the device. A humming sound is heard. The nose pieces 6 begin to emit red light at two wavelengths.
• One therapy cycle lasts approximately three minutes. The device then automatically switches itself off. Press the on/off button 2 if you want to switch off the device during treatment.
• The Medinose Compact can be used three to five times a day with a break of five to six hours between treatments

After finishing use / cleaning
• Remove the batteries if you do not use the device for one month (or longer). This prevents damage to the device caused by leaking batteries.
• The device is not waterproof. Therefore, do not use liquid cleaning agents that can penetrate the device.
• Clean the base unit and the nose probe only with a soft, slightly damp cloth. No water may enter the device.
Ensure that everything is hygienically clean afterwards.

• Do not make any changes to the product that have not been approved by the manufacturer. Unauthorized changes will result in the forfeiture of any warranty claim. You may not disassemble or repair the device or its components.
• Do not perform any cleaning or maintenance work while the device is switched on!
• Avoid high temperatures and direct sunlight. Do not immerse the device in water, as this will damage it.
