What dose information is stored by Breelib?

BreeConnect is entirely optional and will be made available for UK Breelib patients. The app will be free to download and use on a personal Android or Apple (iOS) smartphone or tablet device.
BreeConnect may not suit everyone who uses Breelib and you can stop using the app or any of its features at any time.
▶ For more information on BreeConnect, please see the BreeConnect area of this website or speak with the Breelib Support Centre.

- The Bluetooth light can be found to the left of the ON/OFF button.
- When Bluetooth is ON, the Bluetooth light will blink blue.

Turning Bluetooth ON
Breelib must be OFF before trying to turn Bluetooth ON. Breelib is OFF when the battery light is OFF.
It is more straight forward to turn Bluetooth ON without the nebuliser unit and mouthpiece attached to the base unit.
To turn Bluetooth ON, lightly press and hold down the ON/OFF button until the blue light starts to blink, this takes 5 seconds. When Bluetooth is ON lift your finger away from the ON/OFF button.
If you hear a beep when trying to turn Bluetooth ON, simply lift your finger away from the ON/OFF button and wait a few seconds before trying again. This time, lightly press and hold down the ON/OFF button and do not lift your finger away from the ON/OFF button until the blue light starts to blink.
You can also turn Bluetooth ON when Breelib is assembled by pressing and holding the ON/OFF button for 5 seconds. Just make sure that when you hear the 2 ‘Clicks’ you keep holding down the ON/OFF button until the blue light start to blink.
Turning Bluetooth OFF
If you have turned Bluetooth ON by mistake and want to turn it OFF, lightly press the ON/OFF button once. Alternatively, Bluetooth will turn itself OFF after around one minute.
When Bluetooth turns itself ON after finishing a dose
After dose information stored on Breelib is sent to the BreeConnect app for the first time, Bluetooth will start to turn itself ON immediately after you finish each dose.
If you are not using the BreeConnect app or you are using the app but do not want to update your app dose information press the ON/OFF button once to turn Bluetooth OFF or wait one minute and it will turn itself OFF.
