2. Hold the unit with your left hand and the water tank with your right hand. Rotate both counterclockwise and pull down to remove or reinstall the water tank.

3. Insert the nozzle into the center hole of the main unit until you hear a click, indicating that it is securely installed. To replace or remove the nozzle, press and hold the nozzle release button, then pull the nozzle out.

4. Lean over the sink, press the mode button, set the pressure to the desired level, place the nozzle in your mouth and aim it at your gums and between your teeth, then press the power button to turn it on and start using it.

5. Hold the water jet at a 90-degree angle to your gums and keep your lips slightly closed to prevent the water from spraying sideways.

Make sure to thoroughly clean around the gums and between the teeth.
