Charging Unit Prior to First Use
Plug the power cord into the wall and place the magnetic charger on the front of the unit for approximately 4 hours (see image). The charge indicator on the handle will flash when charging and will stay on continuously when the unit is fully charged. A full charge will last for approximately 1 week of typical use. When the batteries
are in need of charging (approximately 30% charge left) the charge indicator light will blink 8 times quickly after use to indicate that you should recharge the unit. A complete recharge will take 3-4 hours. If you use your Water Flosser once a day or less, it is recommended you charge it once a week. If you use it twice a day or more, charge the unit more frequently. Filling the Reservoir
Remove the magnetic charger from the unit prior to filling the reservoir and product use. Lift flip top on the reservoir and fill the reservoir with lukewarm water. Inserting and Remove Tips
Insert tip into the center of the knob at the top of the Water Flosser handle. Press firmly until the tip clicks into place.
To remove the tip from the handle, press the tip eject button and pull tip from the handle.
CAUTION: Do not press tip eject button while unit is running.

Adjusting the Pressure Setting
You can adjust the pressure setting on your Water Flosser by pressing the mode button on the handle. Start with the lowest setting and increase to your liking.

Recommended TechniqueMEDIUM
Lean low over sink and place tip in mouth. Aim the tip toward the gum line, and turn the unit ON (I).
For best results, start with the back teeth and work toward the front teeth. Glide tip along the 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 the mouth into the sink.
Keep unit upright during use for best results.

When Finished
Turn the unit off. Empty any liquid left in the reservoir.
If desired, the reservoir may be removed from the power handle by sliding the reservoir release latch to the unlock position(1) and then sliding the reservoir down towards the base of the unit(2).

TROUBLESHOOTING YOUR WATERPIK® WATER FLOSSER

To replace the reservoir on the power handle, simply slide it up towards the top of the unit and slide the reservoir release latch to the locked position. TIP USAGE
Pik PocketTM Tip
The Pik PocketTM Tip is specifically designed to deliver water or anti- bacterial solutions deep into periodontal pockets.
To use the Pik PocketTM 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 gum line, into the pocket. Turn the unit on and continue tracing along the gumline.

Tongue Cleaner Tip
To use the tongue cleaner tip, set to the lowest pressure setting, place tip in the center/middle of your tongue about halfway back and start the Water Flosser. Pull forward with light pressure. Increase pressure to your liking. Orthodontic Tip
To use the Orthodontic Tip, gently glide tip along the gumline, pausing briefly to lightly brush area between
teeth and all around the orthodontic bracket, before proceeding to the next tooth.

Toothbrush Tip
Place the toothbrush tip in the mouth with the brush head on the tooth at the gum line. The toothbrush tip can be used with or without toothpaste.
Turn the Water Flosser on so the water flows through the tip. Using 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 the gumline, pausing briefly between teeth to gently brush and allow the water to flow between the teeth. Travel Water Plug
When traveling, place a travel plug-in unit to keep excess water from draining out.
NOTE: Do NOT run unit while the travel water plug is in unit. Using Mouthwash and Other Solutions Your Waterpik® Water Flosser can be used to deliver mouthwash and antibacterial solutions. For ease of adding other solutions remove the reservoir (see “When Finished” section) and add from top opening on the reservoir. If you are adding additional water you may replace the reservoir and fill the reservoir fully with the fill door. After using any special solution, rinse unit to prevent clogging by partially filling the reservoir with warm water and running unit with tip pointed into sink until the 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 the 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/General Cleaning
Hard water deposits may build up in your unit, depending on the mineral content of your water. If left unattended, it can hinder performance. Cleaning internal parts: add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar to a full reservoir of warm water. Point the handle and tip into sink. Turn the unit ON and run until the reservoir is empty. Rinse by repeating with a full reservoir of clean warm water.
This process should be done every 1 to 3 months to ensure optimal performance.

Battery Care and Disposal
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 recycling center per local or state requirements. The battery is not replaceable.
