Adjusting the Pressure Setting

Turn the pressure control dial on the base of the unit to the lowest setting

(pressure setting No.1) for ﬁrst-time use. Gradually increase pressure over time

to the setting you prefer – or as instructed by your dental professional.

Using the Water Flosser

and massage throughout your mouth.
