ENGLISH
Brushing
Place the brush head in your mouth before pressing the BRUSH button.
Recommended Technique
For best results, position brush along gumline at a 45-degree angle. Press the BRUSH
button to turn the brush ON. Use light pressure and move the toothbrush slowly
allowing for the sonic action to clean each tooth individually. Brush can be easily
disconnected from the hose if desired (See diagram on product description page).
Quad Timer
The Sonic-Fusion® will create a short pause every 30 seconds to remind you to move
to the next section of your mouth. You will brush the outside of the teeth for 30
seconds and then the inside for 30 seconds. This will be repeated on the other arch
for a total of 2 minutes to clean all teeth.
2-Minute Timer
The brush will automatically shut o aer 2 minutes of run time.
Water Flossing
Always place the brush head in your mouth prior to pressing the FLOSS button. Lean
over the sink and slightly close lips enough to prevent splashing while still allowing
water to ow from mouth into sink.
Adjusting the Pressure Setting
Turn the water osser 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.
Recommended Technique
For best results, start with the back teeth and work toward the front teeth.
Direct the brush head so that the water osser nozzle is angled slightly toward the
gumline. Move the brush head along the gumline pausing briey between each tooth
to allow water to clean between teeth. Continue until you have cleaned the inside
and outside of both the upper and lower teeth. When nished, empty any liquid le
in the reservoir.
NOTE: If you used mouthwash or any other solution besides water, see “Using
Mouthwash and Other Solutions” section.
Brush + Floss
To Brush + Floss at the same time, place brush head in mouth. Press brush button,
then press oss button.

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.
