2.5 Preparing the irrigator for first use
The Air Fx is ventilated by a fan at the back of the device. Do not place the Air Fx near a radiator or other
heating source. Provide at least 10 cm (4 in) of free space behind the unit to provide adequate circulation.
Filling the water reservoir
The Air Fx will be shipped from Interacoustics without any
Please fill according to the following instructions.
1. Check that the irrigator is powered OFF.
2. Remove the cap to the water reservoir on the top of the irrigator. Do not force the cap or use mechanical
tools to remove the cap.
3. Fill the reservoir with distilled water up to 1cm from the bottom of the cap. Take care not to spill any
water into the unit except into the water reservoir to prevent damage to the circuitry and prevent any
electrical shock to the user. If any water is spilled, wipe it up immediately.
4. Purge air from the hoses, pump and handle by connecting the included 60cc syringe & tube to the Fill /
Drain Water Outlet. Fully push the tube into the Fill / Drain Water push-in connector (about 1" (2cm) of
tubing). Gently pull on the tubing to confirm the tube is secure.
5. Switch the Fill / Drain Valve to the Fill / Drain position.
6. Draw back the syringe to draw the air out of the internal tubing and draw distilled water into the syringe.
If there is a train of air bubbles or there is no suction, then set the Fill / Drain Valve to the Run position
and reconnect the tube. Once reconnected, set the Fill / Drain Valve to the Fill / Drain position.
7. Disconnect the syringe from the tube and keep the tube held above the irrigator to prevent the water
from exiting the tube. Squirt any distilled water drawn back into the reservoir. Reconnect the syringe to
the tube.
8. Repeat steps 6 to 7 two more times to draw the remaining air out of the lines.
9. Set the Fill / Drain Valve to the Run position.
10. Disconnect the syringe. The tube can be removed by pushing on the sides of the tubing connector's grey
collar around the tubing while simultaneously pulling on the tubing.
11. Place the cap back on the water reservoir.
12. Attach the AC power cord to the back of the irrigator and switch on the Air Fx using the power switch
next to the power cord. Water will automatically be pumped through the hoses into the handle and
returned to the reservoir.
13. Test system by running irrigator on the warm cycle then the cool cycle. If the irrigator is able to do this,
then it is ready to use. If the irrigator is unable to reach the desired temperature, then repeat the fill
instructions.
