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 reservoir and
product use. Lift flip top on 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 Technique
Lean low over sink and place tip in mouth. Aim the tip toward gumline,
and turn the unit ON (I).
For best results, start with the back teeth and work toward the front teeth.
Glide tip along 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 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) sliding the reservoir
release latch to the unlock position and then (2) sliding the reservoir down
toward the base of the unit.

NOTE: NOT ALL TIPS INCLUDED WITH ALL MODELS.
TIP USAGE
Pik Pocket®Tip
The Pik Pocket®tip is specifically 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 soft tip against a tooth at a 45-degree angle and gently
place the tip under the gumline, into the pocket.
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.
Orthodontic Tip
To use the orthodontic tip, gently glide tip along gumline, pausing briefly 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 briefly between teeth to gently brush and allow the water to flow
between the teeth.
Travel Plug
When traveling, place travel plug in unit to keep excess water from draining out.
NOTE: Do NOT run unit while travel 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
reservoir. If you are adding additional water you may replace the reservoir
and fill reservoir fully with the fill door. 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
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 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 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.
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 recycle center per local or state
requirements. The battery is not replaceable.
