How O2IN Works
When you continuously exhale into the device, a vibration is generated towards the movable valve, which is transmitted to the lungs. This vibration helps to loosen mucus in the lower airways.
During use, the airways open up and the clearance of the loosened mucus is improved.
When you continuously exhale into the device, a vibration is generated towards the movable valve, which is transmitted to the lungs. This vibration helps to loosen mucus in the lower airways.
During use, the airways open up and the clearance of the loosened mucus is improved.
The device provides resistance during exhalation, which helps strengthen your respiratory muscles, increase lung capacity, and enhance the efficient use of oxygen during inhalation.
To adjust the device, open the right side cover using the provided key. Insert the key into the slot and turn it with force.
To adjust the device, open the right side cover using the provided key. Insert the key into the slot and turn it with force.
When the cover opens, you will see the adjustment handle. Exhale strongly and continuously through the device while turning the adjustment mechanism towards or away from yourself. Secure the handle in the position where you feel the maximum vibration during exhalation.
To train your inhalation muscles, open the cover and insert the resistance plate into the cover. The resistance plate can be installed on either side.
To replace the plate, push it out of the cover using the key.

Using the Device
Remove the device from its packaging and carefully review the instructions.
Before use, thoroughly rinse the device under running water and wipe all parts with a soft, dry cloth.
Remember that the device is for individual use only; do not share it with others without changing the mouthpiece and disinfecting it.
Position the device as shown in the image. Do not turn the device upside down to ensure proper inhalation and exhalation:
• Place the mouthpiece between your teeth and seal it with your lips.
• Take a slow, deep breath in through the device or through your nose.
• Exhale deeply through your mouth into the device, trying not to puff out your cheeks if possible.
During exhalation, you should feel resistance.
Exhaling through the device should produce a distinctive sound and a sensation of vibration.

Possible Exercises Using the O2IN Device:
- Running (including on a treadmill);
- Walking, Nordic walking;
- Cycling;
- Rowing;
- Fitness, exercises on gym equipment;
- Walking or home activities (such as exercise, cleaning)
In the beginning, it's important to let your body adjust to the "interference" that affects normal breathing. Given the device’s design, it will encourage you to take deep breaths and exhale strongly and thoroughly, regardless of the exercise intensity.
Therefore, we recommend starting with static breathing exercises. After 3-4 minutes, you can move on to walking or arm movements.
When using the device statically (without movement), dizziness may occur due to hyperventilation. If this happens, you should stop the session or exercise immediately.

Do not rush into performing exercises with maximum intensity during your initial workouts. It is essential to get accustomed to breathing through the device.
For beginners, the recommended duration of using the device in a single session is 15-20 minutes with a heart rate not exceeding 110-120 beats per minute. After 4-5 sessions, depending on your comfort level, you may increase the usage time to 20-25 minutes per session, but not more than 30% of the total workout time.
For professionals, the usage time should be at least 35-40% of the total workout duration, with a heart rate of 120-140 beats per minute.
If you train 8-10 times a week, use the O2IN device between workouts. If you train 2-3 times a week, use the device during each session.
IMPORTANT! Individuals not prepared for high physical loads should avoid using the O2IN device when the heart rate exceeds 120 beats per minute.

Cleaning and Maintenance
During training, saliva, mucus, and phlegm are produced, so it is essential to:
• After each use, rinse all parts under running water for 2 minutes. You may use a detergent (for dishwashing). Add 1 teaspoon of detergent to 0.5 liters of drinking water. Soak all individual parts in the cleaning solution for 5 minutes, then rinse under running water. Place all parts on a dry, clean, and absorbent surface and allow them to air dry completely;
• Use only clean and dry components. Contaminants and residual moisture can promote the growth of microorganisms, increasing the risk of infection;
• Ensure all individual parts are thoroughly dried after each cleaning step;
Do not store the components in a damp place or with wet items.
Store the trainer in the special pouch found in the packaging with the trainer and instruction manual.
Side Effects
Dizziness may occur. If dizziness appears, stop the training and do not continue until the dizziness completely resolves. Inform your doctor about this to discuss further use of the trainer.
Inform your doctor if any side effects occur that are not mentioned in this user manual.
