GETTING STARTED

Charge

NOTE: NOT ALL TIPS INCLUDED WITH ALL MODELS.

TIP USAGE

Pik Pocket™ Tip

The Pik Pocket™ tip is specically 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 so tip against a tooth at a 45-degree angle and gently

place the tip under the gumline, into the pocket.

Set to lowest pressure setting, place tip in the center/middle of your tongue about half way back. Pull forward with light pressure.

Increase pressure as you prefer.

Orthodontic Tip

To use the orthodontic tip, gently glide tip along gumline, pausing briey 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.

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 briey between teeth to gently brush and allow the water to ow between the teeth.

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

Never immerse unit in water. Before cleaning, unplug from the electrical outlet. Clean the product when necessary by using a so

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 / 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 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.

This process should be done every 1 to 3 months to ensure optimal performance.

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.
