Dosage:

Before Using:

Remove the green dust cap
A new spray unit, or one which has not been used for a few days, may not work for the first time. You may need to 'prime' the bottle by pumping the spray unit a few times until a fine mist is produced.
To do this: Shake the bottle gently. Hold the bottle with your forefinger and the middle finger on the collar either side of the nozzle and your thumb underneath the bottle. Hold the nozzle pointing away from you and keeping your thumb still, press down with your fingers. Pump the spray unit several times until a fine mist comes out of the nozzle.
If the spray unit still does not work and you think it may be blocked, clean it as follows. Never try to unblock it or enlarge the tiny spray holes with a pin or other sharp object because this will harm the spray mechanism

Cleaning the spray mechanism:

Take the dust cap off. Pull upwards on the white collar to remove the nozzle. Soak the nozzle and dust cap in warm water for a few minutes and then rinse under a cold running tap.
Shake off the excess water and allow to dry before replacing.
