After use

Rinse your brush head thoroughly under running water for
several seconds with the handle switched on.
Switch off the handle and remove the brush head from the
handle. Clean both parts separately under running water,
then wipe them dry before you reassemble the brush and
put the handle on the charger base.

Using your irrigator

Before using for the first time, fill the water container

and

allow the water to run through completely by holding the
irrigator handle

over a washbasin.

1. Attach one of the irrigator jets

to the handle until it locks

into place. Fill the water container with luke warm water
and add mouthwash, if desired.

2. Turn on the irrigator by pressing the on/off switch

When doing so, the handle switch

should be in the lower

position = water stop.

3. Select the water pressure with the pressure control dial

(1 = gentle, 5 = strong). We recommend that you start with
setting 1, especially if your gums tend to bleed or if
children are using the irrigator.

4. Bend over a washbasin and guide the jet to your teeth and

gums. Slide the handle switch

up to start the water

stream. Keep your mouth slightly open to allow the water
to run into the washbasin.

The irrigator jet offers two different functions depending on
the position of the jet tip:

Single jet:
Jet tip in position (a) to clean the teeth and the interdental
spaces and remove resistant food particles.

Multi jet:
Jet tip in position (b) to massage the gums and keep them
healthy.

First, turn off the water stream by sliding the handle switch
down (to avoid unintended water spraying). The jet can easily
be switched from one function to the other by pressing the jet
