Note:

• When using the oral irrigator for the first time, start from the slowest mode. Water pressure can increase gradually as your mouth adapts to it. You may experience itching or slight bleeding of the gums during use.
• It is normal and it should disappear after 1-2 weeks of use.

5. Use

   Techniques
   To get better results, start with the molars (back teeth) and work your way to the front teeth. While cleaning, move the nozzle to 90º over the gumline. Stay between each tooth for a short period of time. Slightly close your lips to avoid water to exit, but let enough space for the water to flow from your mouth to the sink.

   • Turn off the device at any time, if you finished using it, by pressing again the power button. When turning on the device again, the timer will restart.
6. After use
   After every use, open the water inlet cover and empty the remaining content. Turn on the device and remove any liquid left in the irrigator until it does not release any water. Next, turn off the device.
   
7. Charge
   During use, the battery indicator is white and flashing red when the battery is low, at this moment you need to recharge the battery. During charge, the battery indicator and BAMBA logo will flash red. When the device is completely charged, the battery indicator and the BAMBA logo will light up in white.
