Yes, you can add a small amount of non-alcoholic mouthwash to the reservoir, mixed with warm water. After using any solution other than plain water, it's crucial to run a full reservoir of plain water through the device to prevent residue buildup and ensure longevity.

Info needed: The product description does not specify a distinct battery indicator. Typically, cordless devices may have an LED light that changes color or blinks when low, or the water pressure might noticeably decrease. Please refer to your user manual for specific battery status indications.

The product information explicitly mentions an 'orthodontic tip', which is excellent for users with braces. Info needed: While an orthodontic tip is confirmed, the specific quantity and types of other standard tips (e.g., classic jet tip) included are not detailed. Please check the product packaging or user manual for a complete list.

The Waterpik Cordless Plus is designed to be water-resistant, making it safe for use in the shower and wet bathroom environments. However, it is not fully waterproof and should not be submerged in water. Always ensure the USB charging port cover is securely closed during use.

Info needed: The product description does not specify the duration of battery life on a full charge. Battery life can vary based on the frequency and length of your flossing sessions. Consult the user manual for expected battery life statistics.

To clean the reservoir, detach it (if possible, or fill in place) and wash it with warm, soapy water, or run a cleaning cycle with a water and white vinegar solution. For the tips, soak them in a cup of white vinegar or hydrogen peroxide for 5-7 minutes, then rinse thoroughly. It's recommended to replace tips every 3 to 6 months.

Ensure the device is fully charged using the USB cable. A completely depleted battery may require several minutes of charging before the unit powers on. Try charging it for at least 4 hours for a full charge.

Verify the reservoir is filled with water and the tip is securely inserted into the handle until it clicks. Check for any visible blockages in the tip or the water pick mechanism. If issues persist, try using a different tip or running a cycle with warm water.

Confirm that the reservoir is properly seated and sealed firmly onto the base. Ensure the water flosser tip is correctly and firmly clicked into its socket. Inspect all seals around the reservoir and tip connection for any signs of damage or wear.

Unusual noises can sometimes indicate a minor blockage or air in the system. Ensure the reservoir is full, and run the flosser with warm water to help clear any obstructions. If the noise continues, contact customer support for further assistance.
