of the benefits of steam inhalation therapy at home, at the
office or when traveling.
Doctors recommend vapor therapy for symptomatic relief
of colds, flu, bronchitis, sinusitis, laryngitis and allergies.
The Electric Steam Inhaler provides a steady flow of warm
moist air directly to the nose and throat for quick relief of
nasal, sinus and chest congestion, coughs and parched
throat.
Why steam inhalation therapy works
Breathing warm, moist air (natural steam) provides immedi-
ate relief by lessening mucus production, nasal congestion,
coughing, sore throat discomfort and headache pain.
Prevention Magazine 12/89
The National Institute of Allergies and Infectious Diseases
recommends inhaling steam to lessen discomfort and pro-
vide quicker relief for sinusitis and allergies.

three times a day while symptoms persist. Inhaling steam
provides natural therapy. No medication, Vicks

What should I do if the Vicks VapoTherapy V1200 inhalator is not producing steam?

If the Vicks VapoTherapy V1200 inhalator is not producing steam, you can try the following steps to troubleshoot the issue: 1. Ensure that the inhalator is properly plugged into a functioning electrical outlet. Check if the power indicator light is on. 2. Make sure that the Water Reservoir is filled with clean, cold tap water up to the recommended level. Do not overfill the reservoir. 3. Check if the Vent Assembly is properly attached to the Base. Ensure that it is securely in place. 4. Verify that the Inhaler Hood is correctly positioned on top of the Vent Assembly. It should fit snugly. 5. Check if the inhalator has been allowed enough time to heat up. It may take a few minutes for steam to start generating. 6.

How can I adjust the steam flow and temperature on the Vicks VapoTherapy V1200 inhalator?

To adjust the steam flow and temperature on the Vicks VapoTherapy V1200 inhalator, follow these steps: 1. Locate the Vent Assembly on the top of the inhalator. It has two Flow Levers. 2. To increase the steam flow and temperature, move either Flow Lever clockwise towards the "HI" setting. This will result in more steam and a hotter temperature. 3. To decrease the steam flow and temperature, move either Flow Lever counterclockwise. This will reduce the steam flow and lower the temperature. 4. If the steam is still uncomfortably warm, you can lift your face one or two inches above the Inhaler Hood while continuing to inhale. 5. Remember to use tap water to fill the Water Reservoir, filling it just below the cup rim. Do not overfill and do not add any medication or inhalant liquids to the water reservoir. 6. After adjusting the steam flow and temperature, replace the Vent Assembly by aligning the Index Line with the raised Arrow on the Base and turning it clockwise to lock it into place. 7. Finally, replace the Inhaler Hood and connect the cord to an electrical outlet. Press the On/Off Switch to the ON position, and the Indicator Light will illuminate. By following these steps, you can easily adjust the steam flow and temperature on the Vicks VapoTherapy V1200 inhalator to suit your preferences and needs.
