NOTE: All tips not included in all models.

Replacement tips/attachments may be purchased from your local distributor, which can be found at www.waterpik.com/intl.

GETTING STARTED

Important! Turn Water Flosser off and charge for 24 hours before first use. Plug the cord into any standard electrical outlet. Make sure you push the switch into the OFF (0) position before charging. The unit will not charge if the switch is in the ON (I) position. See "Cleaning and Troubleshooting Your Waterpik Water Flosser" for guidance on how to look after your battery. The Waterpik *Water Flosser will stay charged for up to 2 weeks depending on use.

Filling the Reservoir

Disconnect charging cord from the unit prior to filling the reservoir and product use. Lift flip top on reservoir and fill the reservoir with lukewarm water.

Inserting and Removing Tips

Insert tip into the center of the knob at the top of the Water Flosser handle. The colored ring will be flush with the end of the knob if the tip is correctly locked into place.

To remove the tip from the handle, press the tip eject button and pull tip from the handle.

Adjusting the Pressure Setting

You can adjust the pressure setting on your Water Flosser by simply sliding the pressure switch on the handle.

Recommended Technique

Lean low over sink and place the tip in mouth. Aim the tip toward teeth, and turn the unit ON (I).

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.

Direct the jet stream at a 90-degree angle to your gumline. Slightly close lips to avoid splashing but allow water to flow freely from mouth into the sink. Keep unit upright during use for best results.

When Finished

Turn the unit OFF (0). Empty any liquid left in the reservoir. If desired, the reservoir may be removed from the power handle by pulling the reservoir release latch while sliding the reservoir down towards the base of the unit.

Reservoir Release Latch

To replace the reservoir on the power handle, simply slide it up towards the top of the unit. The reservoir will snap into place when fully engaged.

TIP USAGE

Pik Pocket® Tip

The Pik Pocket *tip is specifically designed to deliver water or anti-bacterial solutions deep into periodontal pockets.

To use the Pik Pocket tip, set the unit to the lowest pressure setting. Place the soft tip against a tooth at a 45-degree angle and gently place the tip under the gumline, into the pocket. Turn the unit on and continue tracing along the

Tongue Cleaner Tip

To use the tongue cleaner tip, set to lowest pressure setting, place tip in the center/middle of your tongue about half way back and start the Water Flosser. Pull forward with light pressure. Increase pressure as you prefer.

Orthodontic Tip

To use the orthodontic tip, gently glide tip along gumline, pausing briefly to lightly brush area between teeth and all around orthodontic bracket, before proceeding to the next tooth.

Toothbrush Tip

Place the toothbrush tip in mouth with the brush head on the tooth at the gumline. The toothbrush tip can be

used with or without toothpaste. Turn the Water Flosser on so the water flows through the tip. Using a light pressure (bristles should not bend) massage the brush back and forth with very short strokes-much like you would with a manual toothbrush.

Plaque Seeker Tip

To use the Plaque Seeker tip, place the tip close to the teeth so that the bristles are gently touching

the teeth. Gently glide tip along gumline, pausing briefly between teeth to gently brush and allow the water to flow between the teeth.

CLEANING AND TROUBLESHOOTING YOUR WATERPIK® WATER FLOSSER

Using Mouthwash and Other Solutions

Your Waterpik® Water Flosser can be used to deliver mouthwash and antibacterial solutions. After using any special solution, rinse unit to prevent clogging by partially filling reservoir with warm water and running unit with tip pointed into sink until unit is empty.

Cleaning

Never immerse unit in water. Before cleaning, unplug from the electrical outlet. Clean the product when necessary by using a soft cloth and mild non-abrasive cleanser to wipe exterior.

The water reservoir is removable for easy cleaning and is top rack dishwasher safe. It is recommended that the reservoir is removed and cleaned weekly.

Removing Hard Water Deposits

Add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar to a full reservoir of warm water. Point the handle and tip into sink. Turn unit ON (I) and run until reservoir is empty. Rinse by repeating with a full reservoir of clean warm water.

Battery Care and Disposal

The unit will not charge if the switch is in the ON (I) position. If you use your Water Flosser once a day or less, it is recommended you charge it overnight, once a week. If you use it twice a day or more, charge the unit

more frequently. Do not run the batteries down completely as this may shorten the lifespan of the batteries and will require charging the unit for 24 hours to obtain a full charge.

If the Water Flosser is to be stored for an extended period of time (six months or more), be sure to fully charge it prior to storage. The unit contains a Nickel Metal Hydride battery. At the end of the battery life, please recycle the unit at your nearest recycle center per local or state requirements. The battery is not replaceable.
