Powering the Unit
Plug the cord into an electrical outlet. If the outlet is controlled by a wall switch,
be sure it is turned on.
Preparing the Reservoir
Li the reservoir lid, remove the reservoir, and ll with lukewarm water.
Replace the reservoir over the base and press down rmly and close the lid.
Inserting and Removing Tips
Insert tip into the center of the Water Flosser handle, pressing down rmly until the
tip clicks into place. The colored ring will be ush with the top of the handle if the tip
is correctly locked into place. To remove tip from the handle push the tip eject button
on the handle.
Prime Unit (First Time Use Only)
Set pressure control dial on base to high (pressure setting No.10), point the handle
and tip into sink. Turn power and water ON until water ows from the tip.
Turn unit OFF.
Adjusting the Pressure Setting
Turn the pressure control dial on the base of the unit to the lowest setting (pressure
setting No.1) for rst-time use. Gradually increase pressure over time to the setting
you prefer – or as instructed by your dental professional.
Using the Water Flosser
Always place the tip in your mouth before turning the water ON. With water
switch on handle in OFF position, turn power ON. Lean over sink and slightly
close lips enough to prevent splashing while still allowing water to ow
from mouth into the sink. Turn water switch ON. When nished, turn water
switch and power OFF. During use you can stop the ow of water by sliding the
water switch on handle to the OFF position.
NOTE: Motor will continue to run.
For best results, start with back teeth and work toward the front teeth. Direct
the stream at a 90-degree angle to your gumline with tip in mouth. Glide tip along
gumline and pause briey between teeth. Continue until you have cleaned the inside
and outside of both the upper and lower teeth.

NOTE: NOT ALL TIPS INCLUDED WITH ALL MODELS.
TIP USAGE
Pik Pocket™ Tip
The Pik Pocket™ tip is specically 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 so 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 briey 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 briey between
teeth to gently brush and allow the water to ow between the teeth.
Using Mouthwash and Other Solutions
Your Waterpik®Water Flosser can be used to deliver mouthwash and antibacterial
solutions. Aer using any special solution, rinse unit to prevent clogging by partially
lling reservoir with warm water and running unit with tip pointed into sink until
unit is empty.
Accessory Storage
Accessory tip storage for your two most frequently used tips is under the reservoir
lid and can be easily accessed by removing the reservoir.
