Product Overview

The Aquapick AQ-300 is a powerful oral irrigator designed for effective plaque removal and gum health improvement. It features a high-pressure pulsating water jet to clean between teeth and below the gumline, where traditional brushing and flossing may not reach. The unit includes a water reservoir, a handle with a tip ejection button, and a pressure control system.

Setup

Follow these steps for initial setup of your Aquapick AQ-300:

1. Unpack: Remove all components from the packaging.
2. Place Unit: Position the main unit on a flat, stable surface near an electrical outlet and a sink.
3. Fill Reservoir: Remove the water reservoir from the base and fill it with lukewarm water. You may also add a small amount of mouthwash if desired. Place the reservoir back onto the base, ensuring it is seated correctly.
4. Attach Tip: Select a standard jet tip. Insert the tip into the handle until it clicks into place. To remove, press the tip ejection button on the handle.
5. Plug In: Connect the power cord to the unit and then plug it into a suitable electrical outlet (AC 90~240V, 50~60Hz).

Operating Instructions

For optimal oral hygiene, use your Aquapick AQ-300 daily:

1. First Use (Priming): If using for the first time or after extended storage, direct the tip into the sink. Turn the unit ON and set the pressure to high until water flows consistently.
2. Adjust Pressure: The Aquapick AQ-300 offers adjustable pressure settings. Start with the lowest setting and gradually increase to a comfortable level. The maximum pressure is 7 kgf/cm².
3. Position Tip: Lean over the sink and place the tip in your mouth, aiming the water jet at your gumline at a 90-degree angle. Close your lips slightly to prevent splashing, but allow water to flow into the sink.
4. Begin Flossing: Turn the unit ON. Guide the tip along your gumline, pausing briefly between teeth. Ensure you clean both the front and back surfaces of your teeth. The unit provides 1,800 pulsations per minute for effective cleaning.
5. Duration: Continue until the reservoir is empty, which typically takes about 1.5 seconds for 600ml of water.
6. Power Off: Turn the unit OFF after use.
7. Empty Reservoir: Empty any remaining water from the reservoir to prevent bacterial growth.
