How to Clean a Waterpik® Water Flosser
Mineral deposits and other materials can collect in your Water Flosser, causing it to lose pressure and
effectiveness.
Here are 4 steps for simple cleaning with water, vinegar, and your dishwasher to keep your Water
Flosser performing at its best. Complete this process every 1-3 months to ensure optimal performance.
Step 1: Clean the Water Reservoir
Remove the water reservoir from the unit. (Refer to your product manual if you need
assistance).
If using a countertop model WP-100/112 (Ultra), WP-260 (Kids),WP-300 (Traveler), WP-60/65
(Classic), WP-72 (Classic Professional), or WP-900 (Complete Care), remove the black reservoir
valve by pushing on it from the bottom. Clean the valve by massaging it under warm water for
30-45 seconds and set aside.
Place the reservoir in the top rack of your dishwasher for cleaning. We recommend air drying
instead of a heated dry cycle.
If you removed the valve, place it back in the reservoir before use. (Dome side up, push in place
so the four prongs are visible on the bottom of the reservoir.)
The reservoir is top-rack dishwasher safe.
Step 2: Clean the Internal Parts
Mix 2-4 tablespoons (1-2 ounces) of white vinegar with 16 ounces of warm water.
Fill the reservoir with the solution, and then run 1/2 of it through the Water Flosser.
For countertop models, with the unit off, place the Water Flosser handle in the sink and allow
the solution to gradually drain out the handle for 20 minutes.
Run any remaining solution through the unit and then rinse with a full reservoir of warm water.

After running the white vinegar/water solution through the unit, allow additional solution to drain out
the handle of countertop models for 20 minutes.
Step 3: Clean the Handle (Countertop Models)
Remove the tip from the unit using the eject button.
Soak the Water Flosser handle in a container of white vinegar for 5-7 minutes.
Rinse the handle under warm water.
Clean the Water Flosser tip separately using step #4.

Soak the handle of countertop units in white vinegar for 5-7 minutes.
Step 4: Clean the Flosser Tip
Remove the tip from the unit using the eject button.
Soak the Water Flosser tip in a container of hydrogen peroxide or white vinegar for 5-7 minutes.
Rinse the tip under warm water.
For maximum effectiveness over time, we recommend replacing Water Flosser tips every 3-6
months. The tips can become clogged and/or affected by mineral deposits.
Soak the flosser tip in white vinegar for 5-7 minutes.
It's easy to keep your Waterpik®Water Flosser clean so you continue to get the maximum benefit for
your oral health.

To charge the Cordless Advanced Water Flosser WP-560/562/563/565:
1. Charge the unit prior to first use by plugging the power cord into the wall and place the
magnetic charger on the front of the unit for approximately 4 hours.
2. The charge indicator on the handle flashes when charging and stays on continuously when the
unit is fully charged. A full charge lasts for approximately 1 week of typical use.
3. When there is approximately 30% charge left, the charge indicator light blinks 8 times quickly
after use to indicate that you should recharge the unit. A complete recharge takes 3-4 hours.

charging the unit for 24 hours to obtain a full charge.
4. 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.
