• Unpack diffuser and place the jar in the cradle. Remove the cap and place a few drops of Essential oil in the jar (it is not necessary to remove the air tube from either cap or pump to refill or clean the unit) set the speed switch to the desired level, plug into a 240vac power supply and start diffusing.

disconnected from the electrical supply before refilling or cleaning.

ESSENTIAL OILS

• By using Essential oils in your diffuser you have a system of natural help which can prevent illness and alleviate symptoms. Essential oils provide your home and workplace with the protection and pleasure they need without polluting ourselves or our environment with chemicals, thus living in harmony with people and planet alike.
• Essential oils are not a new discovery, there is evidence to show that they were used by the ancient Egyptians.
• Because the Essential oils are so sweet smelling, it might be easy to suppose that their value is only one of charm. This would be a mistake, as these substances are very powerful in their molecular structure.
• The following chart lists some of the most common and readily available Essential oils and is by no means a comprehensive list.
• The chart lists some of the therapeutic values of the oils listed, when used in the diffuser to combat and treat infections.
   

• Below are some common Essential oils used for the purposes listed:

Bergamot, Geranium, Grapefruit, Peppermint, Rose, Rosemary.

Chamomile, Clary-Sage, Jasmine, Lavender, Lemon, Mandarin, Orange,

Ylang- Ylang.

Lavender, Peppermint, Rosemary, Chamomile.

To fight and treat infections of the Respiratory Tract (Nose, Throat, Chest)

• Since the actual use of Essential oils by others is beyond the diffuser manufacturer’s control, no expressed or implied guarantee as to the effects of their use can be given, nor liability taken. Essential oils are to be used at the owner's own discretion. The manufacturer of the diffuser disclaims any liability arising directly or indirectly from the use of Essential oils.

• Minimum filling quantity – 1 drop.
• Maximum filling quantity – 50 drops ( +/- 5ml )

• Low speed – 20 minutes per drop.

Note: These times are only approximate as different oil types and oil quality will result in different diffusing times.  Oil usage is very economical!

It does no harm if the diffuser continues to run after the oil is finished

Clean the jar using normal dishwashing detergents. Ensure the jar is dry before filling with oil.

• Cap

Clean the cap using a slightly damp cloth with a mild detergent.

• Pump

The pump may be cleaned only with a slightly damp cloth with a mild detergent.

Remember always to disconnect the diffuser from the Power source before cleaning.

 

By using the African Engine diffuser, the oils are gently released into the atmosphere at a controlled rate. The user can then inhale the beneficial healing properties for minutes or hours as required.

Since Essential oils are highly flammable, it is completely safe to use the African Engine diffuser, as the oil does not come into contact with any heat source, making it safe to use, even in a baby's room.

The story of Rooibos is a unique and extremely interesting one - a story that started at the turn of the century in the Cedarberg area of the Cape. It was the locals of the area who first discovered that the fine, needle-like leaves of the "Aspalathus Linearis" plant made a tasty, aromatic tea. It was they who first harvested the wild-growing plants, chopped them with axes and then bruised them with hammers, leaving them to ferment in heaps, before drying them in the sun. Today Rooibos is still processed in much the same way, but of course the methods are more mechanised and refined.

The Aspalathus plant group, which falls under the legume family, and to which Rooibos belongs, consists of more than 200 species which occur only in South Africa and of which only the specie Aspalathus Linearis has any economic value. Had it not been for the mountain inhabitants in the Western Cape, this specie would today have been known merely as an ordinary shrub-like bush of the mountains.

The plant is a shrub-like bush with a central smooth bark main stem which, near the soil surface, is already subdivided into various equally strong off-shoots followed by thin, flimsy side branches bearing the thin, sharp, soft, needlelike leaves of approximately ten millimetres in length, singly or in bunches. The growth height varies from one to 1,5 metre in its natural state while the height of harvested plants varies from 0,5 to 1,5 metre depending on the age or the climate and soil conditions in the area of production.

 Although bulbinella is not really a herb as such, it does make out part of the herbal arsenal in treating excema, cuts and burns, as well as sunburn, blisters, insect bites, acne, cracked skin as well as rashes and grazes. The bulbinella plant is a type of succulent and has been used for ages by the local African people to help heal skin problems.

Indigenous to Africa, there are many varieties of Bulbinella, but all have the remarkable ability of soothing and healing:

skin rashes, burns, grazes, insect bites, heat rashes, spotty skin, acne and eczema's

The most commonly grown variety, Bulbinella Frutescens can be crushed, and the soothing gel - which is similar to Aloe Vera gel, can be applied frequently to the area affected to soothe it.
