Maintaining your Waterpik WP-150 Series Water Flosser is key to ensuring it works effectively and lasts a long time. Here's how to clean and care for it, based on the manufacturer's recommendations:
Cleaning:
- Before you start, unplug the Waterpik WP-150 from the power outlet.
- Wipe down the outside of the unit with a soft cloth and a gentle, non-abrasive cleaner.
- The water reservoir can be removed and is safe to clean in the top rack of your dishwasher.
- To get rid of hard water buildup, mix 2 tablespoons of white vinegar with a full reservoir of warm water. Aim the handle and tip into your sink, turn the unit on, and run it until the reservoir is empty. Rinse by refilling with clean, warm water and repeating. Do this every 1 to 3 months.
- Remove the reservoir valve by pushing it up from the bottom before you put the reservoir in the dishwasher.
Maintenance:
- The Waterpik WP-150 doesn't have any parts inside that you can service yourself, so it doesn't need regular maintenance.
- If the hose leaks, you can buy replacement hoses and handles from the Waterpik website or through customer service.
- If the reservoir leaks, make sure the valve is correctly in place, or contact customer service for a replacement valve.
Following these steps will help keep your Waterpik WP-150 Water Flosser in great shape and extend its lifespan. For more detailed instructions, please check the manual that came with your product.
