Maintenance & Cleaning

How do I clean the machine’s interior?

  • Fill the tank with distilled water and drain completely.
  • Do not use any cleaning chemicals.
  • Never pour anything other than distilled water into the machine.

What maintenance is required?

Weekly:

  • Replace water weekly (or after 7 days unused)
  • Clean cannulas and tubing with rubbing alcohol, rinse with hot water

Monthly:

  • Drain and clean tank with distilled water if E002 error appears

How often should I replace hoses?

  • Every 3 months, or sooner if discolored or damaged
  • Clean nasal ends with alcohol swabs between uses

What if the water doesn’t flow properly?

Air can become trapped. Try this:

  1. Tilt the machine gently side-to-side
  2. Fill with distilled water
  3. Drain and refill
Timing, Usage, and Modes

Can I adjust the timer to less than 30 minutes?

No. The machine operates in preset 30-minute increments.
➡️ You can manually turn it off earlier if desired.

Does the machine require a warm-up?

No. Hydrogen and oxygen begin flowing within seconds of startup.

Does the machine always run for 30 minutes?

Yes, that’s the default setting. It’s not a malfunction.

Should I turn the machine off between uses?

Yes, especially for energy savings and safety during long breaks. Otherwise, it’s safe to leave plugged in.

🌬️ Inhalation & Therapy Guidance

Is it better to inhale on an empty stomach?

No. Since hydrogen is inhaled through the lungs, stomach contents do not affect the process.

When should I use hydrogen only vs. hydrogen + oxygen?

Mode

Use Case

Hydrogen Only (H₂)

Daily wellness, fatigue, inflammation, recovery, antioxidant support

Hydrogen + Oxygen (H₂ + O₂)

Low oxygen levels, respiratory issues, stroke or heart condition recovery

Can I use accessories like an eye mask or earphones?

The machine supports two accessories simultaneously, but we recommend using one at a time for better results and comfort.

Setup & Compatibility

What kind of tubing is required?

  • Must use 3-channel tubing (for dual gas delivery)
  • Third-party tubing may work but is not guaranteed to be safe or compatible

Can I use longer tubing (e.g., 14 ft)?

Yes. Longer tubing is compatible, but may slightly reduce gas flow rate.

Are face masks compatible?

Yes, but not included. Must be compatible with 3-channel tubing.

Do I need to keep the rubber side plugs in when not in use?

When in use, both caps should be open.
When not in use, you can leave them open or closed, your choice.

Error Codes & Troubleshooting

What does the E002 error mean?

Triggered when water needs to be drained and cleaned.
➡️ Follow monthly maintenance: clean with distilled water.

What does the E008 error mean?

Happens when oxygen cap is closed while machine is running.
➡️ Ensure both hydrogen and oxygen caps are open during operation.

Red Light Machine FAQs

Do I need to undress?

No. The near‑infrared light can pass through many lightweight fabrics. Thin, light‑colored clothing works best.

What does it feel like?

A gentle, soothing warmth. Many users say they feel looser and more relaxed afterward.

How long is a session?

Typical guidance is 20–30 minutes per session, up to twice per day. Start shorter and adjust to comfort, and always follow the quick‑start guide.

Is this a medical device?

No. It’s for general wellness and relaxation and isn’t intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent disease.

Is it safe for my eyes?

Avoid looking directly at the LEDs. Use eye protection if needed and follow the instructions.
