Cleaner. Attach it to the handle, turn the appliance on and drag it across the tongue from back to front. We recommend using the «Sensitive» mode (depending on model) for enhanced control during use. Rinse after use. Replace the Tongue Cleaner when the material becomes worn.
Interdental Cleaner
The Interdental Cleaner effectively cleans between teeth and helps keep your gums healthy. It should be used before
brushing. Break one pick cleaner off the base and insert it into the slot in the neck of the white pick holder. Attach the Interdental Cleaner to the handle and turn the appliance on. Depending on which part of your mouth you are cleaning, the pick holder should be adjusted by turning it, so that the blunt side always faces your gums. Guide the cleaner between your teeth and clean systematically from space to space. We recommend using the «Sensitive» mode (depending on model) for enhanced control during use. A pick cleaner can be used approximately three times until it becomes too soft to effectively fit and clean between the teeth. Replacement cleaners are available separately.
Cleaning recommendations
After brushing rinse your brush head or accessory carefully under running water for some seconds with the handle switched on. Switch off the handle and remove the brush head or accessory. Clean both parts separately under running water (see picture d, page 5); then wipe them dry before reassembling the toothbrush. Put the toothbrush handle back on the charger base.
B Using your irrigator
Before using the irrigator first time, fill the water container (17) and allow the water to run through completely by holding the irrigator handle (16) over a washbasin.
•Attach one of the irrigator jets (10) to the handle until it locks into place (see picture e, page 5). Fill the water container with lukewarm water and add mouthwash, if desired (see picture f, page 5).
•Turn on the irrigator by pressing the on/off switch (13) (see picture g, page 5). When doing so,
the handle switch should be in the lower position
= water stop.
•Select the water pressure with the pressure control dial (14) (1 = gentle, 5 = strong) (see picture h, page 5). We recommend that you start with setting 1, especially if your gums tend to bleed or if children are using the irrigator.
•Bend over a washbasin and guide the jet to your teeth and gums. Slide the handle switch (15) up to
start the water stream (see picture i, page 5). Keep your mouth slightly open to allow the water to run into the washbasin.
You can choose between two different jet functions by sliding the jet switch (11) down or up (before doing so, turn off the water stream by sliding the handle switch down):
Rotating stream for general cleaning and gum massage (jet switch in lower position): The rotation of the water stream and its
Mono stream (jet switch in upper position):
The straight water stream is designed for targeted cleaning (see picture l, page 5).
Maximal operation time: 15 minutes
Cooling off time: 2 hours
To ensure the jet functions, a small sieve is incorpo- rated in the lower end of the shaft. If you should notice reduced water pressure, please check the sieve for any deposits. Remove the deposits, e.g. by carefully tapping the shaft on a flat surface.
After use
Always empty the water container entirely to prevent bacteria from collecting in the standing water. If your dentist has recommended the use of a chlorhexidine solution with your irrigator, allow some water to run through the irrigator after use to prevent any deposit
Press the on/off switch to turn off the irrigator.
To take off the irrigator jet, press the jet release button (12), (see picture j, page 5). The jets can be stored in the jet compartment (9). Wipe the handle dry and place it back onto its base.
Cleaning recommendations
Regularly clean the housing with a damp cloth. The water container and the jet compartment are removable and
