Safety

• Read all instructions before operating either appliance.
• Keep the plug and electrical connections dry. Do not handle the plug with wet hands, immerse the unit, use it while bathing, or store it where it could fall into a sink or tub.
• If the appliance falls into water, disconnect power before attempting to retrieve it.
• Inspect the power cord before first use and throughout the product’s service life. Do not use the product if the cord, plug, appliance, or charger is damaged or malfunctioning.
• Use the device only with the voltage specified on the unit or charger, and do not modify the polarized plug.
• Do not direct the water stream under the tongue or into the nose, ear, or other delicate areas. Some untreated water sources may contain organisms that can cause life-threatening infection if forced into the nose or ear.
• Fill the reservoir only with water or solutions recommended by a dental professional. Do not use iodine, bleach, or water-insoluble concentrated essential oils.
• Keep the cord away from heated surfaces and do not operate either appliance outdoors, near aerosol products, or where oxygen is being administered.
• Remove oral jewelry before using the Water Flosser plus Sonic Toothbrush WP-900.
• Do not use either appliance over an open wound in the mouth or on the tongue.
• Ask a dentist or medical professional before use if antibiotic premedication has been recommended before dental procedures.
• People with pacemakers or other implanted electronic or magnetic devices should consult a physician or the device manufacturer before using the sonic toothbrush.
• Children and people who require assistance must be closely supervised. The appliance is not a toy.
• If a Pik Pocket tip separates from its shaft, discard both pieces and replace them with a new tip.
• Do not insert foreign objects into openings or hoses, and do not attempt to repair the electrical components yourself.
• Avoid abrasive, chemical, baking-soda, or peroxide cleaners that could damage the plastic housing.

Setup and Operation

Prepare the Water Flosser

1. Place the base on a stable surface near a sink and connect the power cord to a suitable electrical outlet.
2. Lift the hinged reservoir lid, remove the reservoir, and fill it with lukewarm water.
3. Seat the reservoir firmly on the base and close the lid.
4. Press a selected tip into the center of the handle until it is secure. The colored ring should sit flush with the top of the handle, with no visible gap.
5. To remove a tip, press the tip eject button only after the unit is turned off.

Prime and Adjust Water Pressure

1. For the first use, set the pressure dial to its highest setting and point the handle and tip into the sink.
2. Turn the Water Flosser on and allow water to flow through the tip.
3. Turn the unit off once the water stream is established.
4. For regular use, begin at pressure level 1 and gradually increase the setting as comfortable or as recommended by a dental professional.

Use the Water Flosser

1. Lean over the sink and place the tip in your mouth before switching the unit on.
2. Close your lips slightly to reduce splashing while allowing water to drain into the sink.
3. Hold the tip at approximately a 90-degree angle to the gumline.
4. Start with the back teeth and slowly guide the tip along the gumline.
5. Pause briefly between teeth, then continue around both the upper and lower arches.
6. Press the handle’s pause button whenever you need to stop the water temporarily.
7. Turn the unit off when finished, empty the reservoir, and unplug the base.

Special Tip Techniques

• Tongue Cleaner: Select the lowest pressure, place the tip near the middle of the tongue, and pull it forward with light pressure. Increase pressure only as comfortable.
• Orthodontic Tip: Glide the tip along the gumline, briefly brushing between teeth and around each bracket before moving to the next tooth.
• Plaque Seeker Tip: Let the bristles touch the teeth gently. Move along the gumline and pause between teeth so the water can pass through the interdental spaces.
• Pik Pocket Tip: Use the lowest pressure. Position the soft tip against a tooth at approximately 45 degrees and gently place it below the gumline inside the pocket. Trace the gumline carefully.

Use Mouthwash or Other Approved Solutions

The water flosser can deliver mouthwash or an antibacterial solution when approved for use by a dental professional. Afterward, partially fill the reservoir with warm water, aim the tip into the sink, and run the unit until the reservoir is empty. This helps reduce residue and clogging.

Use the Sonic Toothbrush

1. Slide the brush head onto the toothbrush handle and press it down firmly.
2. Place the brush head in your mouth before turning the handle on.
3. Press the power button once for low speed or twice for high speed.
4. Position the bristles at approximately 45 degrees toward the gumline.
5. Apply light pressure and use a small, slow back-and-forth movement over one or two teeth at a time.
6. Move to another mouth quadrant whenever the brush pauses at 30-second intervals.
7. The toothbrush turns off automatically after two minutes. To stop it manually from low speed, briefly hold the power button.

Charge the Toothbrush

• Charge the toothbrush for 24 hours before its first use.
• Three continuously illuminated indicators show that the handle is fully charged.
• The recharge indicators display the approximate charge level for about 10 seconds after use and after the handle is removed from the charging base.
• The indicator levels correspond to approximately one-third charge, two-thirds charge, and full charge.
• If the lowest indicator begins blinking rapidly and the toothbrush will not operate, place the handle on the charger for approximately one hour.
• Fully charge the handle before storing it for six months or longer.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Water Flosser Cleaning

1. Unplug the base before cleaning.
2. Wipe the product with a soft cloth and mild, non-abrasive cleanser when needed.
3. Remove the reservoir and accessory storage container for easier cleaning. These removable parts are suitable for the top rack of a dishwasher.
4. Remove the reservoir valve before placing the reservoir in the dishwasher.

Remove Hard-Water Deposits

1. Fill the reservoir with warm water and add two tablespoons of white vinegar.
2. Set the pressure dial to high and point the handle and tip into the sink.
3. Run the Water Flosser until the reservoir is empty.
4. Repeat the process with a full reservoir of clean warm water to rinse the system.

Toothbrush Care

1. After every use, turn off the toothbrush and remove the brush head.
2. Rinse the brush head under running water.
3. Wipe the handle dry before returning it to the charger.

Cord Storage and Leakage

Push excess power cord into the storage cavity underneath the base and place the cord in the retention slots. If water leaks from the reservoir, check that the reservoir valve is installed in the correct orientation. A damaged hose or handle requires replacement rather than user repair.

Battery Disposal

The rechargeable toothbrush contains nickel-metal-hydride batteries that are not designed to be replaced. At the end of the product’s life, fully deplete the battery and follow local recycling requirements. Battery removal is irreversible and should not be attempted early because it destroys the toothbrush.

1. Use a coin or washer to turn the bottom cap counterclockwise until it protrudes.
2. Press the shaft firmly downward against a hard surface.
3. Remove the cap and pull out the internal body.
4. Cut and remove the retaining tape.
5. Lift the battery pack and cut the battery wires one at a time to separate the pack from the circuit board.

Troubleshooting

• No water flows during first use: Prime the system by setting the pressure control high, pointing the tip into the sink, and running the unit until water exits the tip.
• Tip feels loose: Turn the unit off, remove the tip, and reinstall it firmly. The colored ring should be flush with the handle and there should be no gap.
• Reservoir leakage: Remove the reservoir and check that its valve is positioned correctly before reseating the reservoir firmly.
• Hose leakage: Stop using the unit if the hose is damaged. The hose and handle are not user-serviceable components.
• Toothbrush will not start: If the bottom LED is blinking rapidly, charge the handle for approximately one hour.
• Water flosser pressure is uncomfortable: Turn the pressure dial down to level 1 and increase it gradually over subsequent uses.
• Water flosser becomes clogged after using a solution: Flush the system with warm water until the reservoir is empty.
