Connect the AC/DC Adapter to the controller and plug the AC/DC
Adapter into an AC power source.
4. Press and release the blue On/Off power button and verify that the
green 15 Min. indicator light illuminates and that aerosol is visible.
5. Disconnect the nebulizer from the controller. Verify that the amber Error
Indicator lights. Reconnect the nebulizer to the controller.
6. Press the On/Off power button again to turn the system off. Press and
hold the button for at least three seconds. Verify that the green 30 Min.
indicator light illuminates and that aerosol is visible.
