Plug the USB charger into a wall outlet and connect the charging cord to the unit. Make sure you slide the switch into the OFF (0) position before charging.

- Adjusting the Pressure Setting

- Recommended Technique
For best results, start with back teeth and work toward the front teeth. Direct the stream at a 90-degree angle to your gum line with tip in mouth. Glide tip along gum line and pause briefly between teeth. Continue until you have cleaned the inside and outside of both the upper and lower teeth.
- 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 down towards the base of the unit. To replace the reservoir on the power handle, simply slide it up towards the top of the unit.

TIP USAGE
- Orthodontic Tip
To use the orthodontic tip, gently glide tip along gum line, pausing briefly to lightly brush area between teeth and all around orthodontic bracket, before proceeding to the next tooth.
- Tongue Cleaner Tip
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.
- 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 gum line, pausing briefly between teeth to gently brush and allow the water to flow between the teeth.
- Toothbrush Tip
Place the toothbrush tip in mouth with the brush head on the tooth at the gum line. 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.
CLEANING AND TROUBLESHOOTING YOUR WATERPIK® WATER FLOSSER
Using Mouthwash and Other Solutions
Your Water pick® 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
Before cleaning, unplug from the electrical outlet. Clean the product when necessary by using a sof 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 left 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.
