Powering the Unit
Plug the cord into an electrical outlet. If the outlet is controlled by a wall
switch, be sure it is turned on.
Preparing the Reservoir
Lift the reservoir lid, remove the reservoir, and fill with lukewarm water.
Replace the reservoir over the base and press down firmly and close the lid.
Inserting and Removing Tips
Insert tip into the center of the Water Flosser handle, pressing down firmly
until tip clicks into place. The colored ring will be flush with the top of the
handle if the tip is correctly locked into place.
To remove tip from the handle push the tip eject button on the handle.
Caution: Do not press tip eject button while unit is running.
Prime Unit (First Time Use Only)
Set pressure control dial on base to high (pressure setting No. 10), point
the handle and tip into sink. Turn unit ON (l) and water ON until water flows
from the tip. Turn Power Off (O).
Adjusting the Pressure Setting
Turn the pressure control dial on the base of the unit to the lowest setting
(pressure setting No. 1) for first-time use. Gradually increase pressure over
time to the setting you prefer – or as instructed by your dental professional.
Using the Water Flosser
Always place the tip in your mouth before turning the water ON. Turn power
on, lean over sink and slightly close lips enough to prevent splashing while
still allowing water to flow from mouth into the sink. Turn water switch ON.
When finished, turn water switch and power OFF. During use you can stop
the flow of water by sliding the water switch on handle to the OFF position.
Recommended Technique
For best results, start with the back teeth and work toward the front teeth.
Glide tip along gumline and pause briefly between teeth. Continue until you
have cleaned the inside and outside of both the upper and lower teeth.
