Note: Replace the nozzle (HX8032, HX8033) every 6 months for optimal results. Also replace the nozzle if it becomes loose or no longer ‘clicks’ onto the handle.
Note:The AirFloss Ultra only supports AirFloss Ultra nozzles. Do not attempt to use non-AirFloss Ultra nozzles on the AirFloss Ultra handle.

Using the appliance
1Make sure the AirFloss Ultra is switched on. If it is off, press and release the power/mode button to switch on the appliance. (Fig. 8)
,, You can change the modes to have the desired amounts of bursts each time you press the activation button. For optimal results, use the triple burst mode (the default setting) from both the outside and inside of your teeth.
,, To change modes, press the power/mode button to cycle through the modes until you reach your desired mode.The LEDs show the selected mode:
-- Single burst: 1 LED (Fig. 10) -- Double burst: 2 LEDs (Fig. 11) -- Triple burst: 3 LEDs (Fig. 12)
Note:The AirFloss Ultra remembers what mode was selected last and it is ready for the next use. If your AirFloss Ultra becomes fully drained of power, it will go back to the triple burst default mode once it has been recharged.
2Place the nozzle tip between two teeth at your gum line. Slightly close your lips over the nozzle when it is in place, to avoid splashing (Fig. 13).
3Press the activation button to deliver 1-3 bursts (depending on the selected mode) of air and micro-droplets of mouthwash or water between the teeth. (Fig. 14)
4Slide the nozzle tip along the gum line until you feel it settle between the next two teeth.
5Continue this procedure for all spaces between your teeth, including behind your back teeth (Fig. 15).
Note:Refill the reservoir as needed.
