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.
