Cleaning Your issa 3

Clean the device after each use by washing the brush with warm water while running your fingers through the bristles. We recommend using FOREO Silicone Cleaning Spray on the body of your issa™ 3 and rinsing with warm water afterwards for optimal results. Allow your toothbrush to air-dry. We do not recommend placing issa™ 3 in a UV sanitation case.
NOTE: Never use cleaning products containing alcohol, petrol or acetone. Avoid using toothpastes with bleach on your device.

Replacing Your issa 3 Brush Head

PULL OFF, PUSH ON
All issa™ brush heads are compatible with issa™ 3. To replace a brush head, make sure your issa™ 3 is turned off, and lift the brush head straight up to detach. With the bristles of the replacement head facing forward, align its center hole with the metal dowel and push down to attach securely. For maximum effectiveness, we recommend changing your issa™ 3 brush head every 6 months. Each Sensitive Brush Head and Tongue Cleaner lasts up to 1 year. You can order your replacement brush heads on www.foreo.com or by contacting the nearest authorized FOREO retailer.
