Directions for Use
Initial Setup
- Unpack the unit and place it on a stable, flat surface.
- Connect the power adapter to the main unit and plug it into a grounded power outlet.
- Attach the external air pipe to the air intake connector at the back of the device.
- Insert the foot pedal plug into the corresponding socket.
- Connect the ultrasonic handpiece to the left port and the air polishing handpiece to the right port.
Using the Ultrasonic Scaling Mode
- Pick up the ultrasonic handpiece; the device will automatically enter Ultrasound System Mode.
- Select the desired mode on the touchscreen (Scaling, Perio, or Endo).
- Choose the appropriate tip and tighten it using the torque wrench.
- Select the water supply mode (bottle or direct line) and adjust water volume as needed.
- Press the Foot Pedal A to activate tip vibration with water spray. Adjust power level based on clinical need.
- Gently glide the tip parallel to the tooth surface without applying excessive pressure.
- After use, allow water to flush through the tip for 30 seconds before disassembling.
Using the Air Polishing Mode
- Fill the powder tank with suitable air-polishing powder within the indicated Min–Max level.
- Securely install the powder tank and pick up the air polishing handpiece; the system auto-switches to Air Polishing Mode.
- Adjust water volume and air pressure via the touchscreen (start at level 5 for water, level 1 for air).
- Use Foot Pedal A to initiate air-polishing spray. Maintain a 3–5mm distance from tooth surface at a 30°–60° angle.
- Use small circular motions and avoid direct spraying on gums or periodontal pockets.
- Employ high-speed suction during the procedure to evacuate mist and particles.
- After polishing, set water to maximum and perform a final rinse polish on all teeth.
Cleaning Mode (Internal Flushing)
- Fill the water bottle with distilled or demineralized water.
- Pick up each handpiece one at a time and press the “Cleaning” button on the screen.
- Activate flushing using Foot Pedal D; the unit will clean automatically for 20–30 seconds.
- Repeat for both handpieces to ensure all internal tubing is rinsed and powder residue is cleared.
Sterilization Instructions
- Detach ultrasonic and air polishing handpieces before sterilization.
- Autoclave at 134°C for at least 4 minutes using a fractional pre-vacuum steam sterilizer.
- Avoid using hot air, radiation, or chemical sterilization methods such as ethylene oxide or plasma.
Certification & Warranty:
- CE certified
- 24-month warranty for the main unit
