Operating Instructions
- First Use (Priming): If using for the first time, point the tip into a sink, turn the unit on, and set to High pressure until water flows.
- Positioning: Lean over a sink and place the tip in your mouth. Close your lips enough to prevent splashing, but allow water to flow from your mouth into the sink.
- Starting the Device: Press the power button to turn the unit on. Select your desired pressure setting (Low or High) using the pressure control button.
- Flossing Technique: Direct the water stream at a 90-degree angle to your gumline. Start with the back teeth and work your way to the front. Glide the tip along the gumline and pause briefly between teeth. Use the 360° tip rotation to reach all areas.
- Completion: Continue until the reservoir is empty or you have cleaned all areas of your mouth. Turn off the device by pressing the power button.
