ENGLISH
Adjusting the Pressure Setting
Slide the pressure control switch located on the
handle to the lowest setting (away from the tip
as far as possible) for use. Gradually
increase pressure over time to the setting
you prefer – or as instructed by your dental
professional.
Placement in Mouth
Lean low over sink and place the jet tip in
mouth. Aim the tip toward teeth.
With your free hand, slide the on/off switch on
the base of the unit to the “up” position. Set
pressure at desired setting.
Direct the stream by turning the knob at the top
of the handle.

10
Recommended Technique
Direct the jet stream at a 90-degree angle to
your gumline. Close lips to avoid splashing
but allow water to flow freely from mouth into
the sink. For best results, start in the molar
area (back teeth) working toward the front teeth.
Glide jet tip along gumline and pause
between teeth. Continue until all areas around
and between the teeth have been cleaned.
Pause Control
You can temporarily stop the flow any time by
pressing the pause button on the handle.
When Finished
Turn the unit off. Empty any liquid left in the
reservoir. Unplug the unit.
