How Ultrasonic Cleaning Works:

The ultrasonic cleaner operates through a process called cavitation. Ultrasonic waves generate microscopic bubbles within the cleaning solution. These bubbles rapidly collapse, creating tiny shockwaves that dislodge stains and debris from your aligners or retainers. It is normal for the cleaner to produce some noise during operation due to this process.

5. Maintenance

1. After Each Use: After the cleaning cycle is complete, unplug the device. Carefully remove your aligners/retainers and rinse them thoroughly under running water.
2. Empty and Rinse Tank: Dump out the used water from the ultrasonic cleaner's tank. Rinse the tank with clean water and wipe it dry with a soft cloth.
3. Storage: Store the cleaner in a clean, dry place when not in use.

6. Troubleshooting

• Device Not Powering On: Ensure the power cable is securely connected to both the device and a functional power outlet. Try plugging into a different outlet to rule out an issue with the power source.
• Ineffective Cleaning: Ensure the water level is between the MIN and MAX indicators. For stubborn stains, consider using Invisalign Cleaning Crystals+ as directed.
• Unusual Noise: Some noise is normal during the cavitation process. If the noise is excessively loud or unusual, ensure the device is on a stable surface and that no foreign objects are in the tank.
