Charging Unit Prior to First Use

Plug the power supply into the wall outlet and connect the magnetic plug to the

unit (see image) for approximately 4.5-5 hours. The charge indicator on the unit

will glow while charging and then begin to ash momentarily every 3 seconds when

the unit is fully charged. A full charge will last for approximately 4 weeks when unit

is used once a day for one minute a day. When the batteries are in need of charging

(approximately 30% charge le) the charge indicator light will blink 3 times quickly to

indicate that the user should consider recharging the unit. A complete recharge will

take 4.5-5 hours. If you use your Water Flosser once a day or less, it is recommended

that you charge it every 3-4 weeks. If you use it twice a day or more, charge the unit

more frequently.

Preparing the Reservoir

Remove the reservoir, li the reservoir lid, and ll with warm water. Fill with warm

water. Replace the reservoir over the base and press down rmly and close the lid.

Inserting and Removing Tips

Insert tip into the center of the Water Flosser handle, pressing down rmly until the

tip clicks into place. The colored ring will be ush with the top of the handle if the tip

is correctly locked into place. To remove tip from the handle slide the tip eject button

on the handle.

Prime Unit (First Time Use Only)

Set pressure control on base to high (pressure setting No.10), point the handle and

tip into sink. Turn power and water ON until water ows from the tip.

Adjusting the Pressure Setting

Set the pressure control on the base of the unit to the lowest setting (pressure

setting No.1) for rst-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 unit power ON. With

water switch on handle in OFF position, turn power on. Lean over sink and slightly

close lips enough to prevent splashing while still allowing water to ow

from mouth into the sink. Turn water switch ON. When nished, turn water

switch and power OFF. During use you can stop the ow of water by sliding the

water switch on handle to the OFF position.

For best results, start with back teeth and work toward the front teeth. Direct

the stream at a 90-degree angle to your gumline with tip in mouth. Glide tip along

gumline and pause briey between teeth. Continue until you have cleaned the inside

and outside of both the upper and lower teeth.

One-Minute Timer/30-second Pacer

The Water Flosser will create a short pause at 30-seconds, to remind you to move

to the other arch of your mouth and another short pause at 1-minute to signal you

have reached the recommended cleaning time. The unit will continue to run without

pauses until the unit is turned o. Depending on the pressure setting, some water

will remain in the reservoir aer 1-minute.

When Finished

Turn the power OFF. Empty any liquid le in the reservoir.

NOTE: If you used mouthwash or other solution besides water, see “Using

Mouthwash and Other Solutions” section.

NOTE: NOT ALL TIPS INCLUDED WITH ALL MODELS.

CLEANING AND TROUBLESHOOTING YOUR WATERPIK®WATER FLOSSER

Implant Denture Tip

The Implant Denture tip is specically designed to access areas that are unreachable

with a Classic Jet tip, Plaque Seeker™ tip, Orthodontic tip, or Pik Pocket™ tip. To use

the Implant Denture tip, place the tip on the lingual side at one end of the implant

retained denture. The opening of the tip is directed between the natural gum tissue

and the denture directing the water under the denture. Slowly glide the tip along

the space between the natural gum tissue and the denture until you have cleaned

underneath the entire length of the denture.

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 briey between

teeth to gently brush and allow the water to ow between the teeth.

Using Mouthwash and Other Solutions

Your Waterpik®Water Flosser can be used to deliver mouthwash and antibacterial

solutions. Aer using any special solution, rinse unit to prevent clogging by partially

lling reservoir with warm water and running unit with tip pointed into sink until

unit is empty.

Cleaning

Before cleaning, disconnect power supply/charger cord. Clean the product when

necessary by using a so cloth and mild non-abrasive cleanser.

The water reservoir is removable for easy cleaning and is top rack dishwasher safe.

Removing Hard Water Deposits / General Cleaning

Hard water deposits may build up in your unit, depending on the mineral content

of your water. If le unattended, it can hinder performance. Cleaning internal

parts: add 2 tablespoons of white vinegar to a full reservoir of warm water. Point

the handle and tip into sink. Turn unit ON and run until 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.

Leakage

If leaking due to a damaged hose, replacement hoses and handles can be purchased

at www.waterpik.com or contact Water Pik Inc. customer service for a self service

repair kit.
