1st POSITION
For prophy procedures,
Tap-On
Mode Auto Cycles eliminate the need to pump the pedal by
automatically cycling between rinse and polish. Tapping the
foot pedal once will enable an automatic air polishing/rinse
cycle that lasts for approximately 1 minute. Tapping the
pedal a second time disables the automatic air polishing/
rinse cycle. See Prophy Mode Auto Cycles in section 9.5 for
cycle details.
TIPS:
Tap-On
Technology will not run water unless a
TM
JET Air Polishing Insert is in the handpiece
A sensor in the handpiece holder will prevent
Tap-On
Technology from operating when the
TM
handpiece is in the holder.
If the foot pedal is not tapped quickly, it will
function in a conventional manner.
How to Disable and Enable Tap-On
Turn knob to manual to turn off. Turn knob to either short,
medium, or long to turn on.
Using Foot Pedal without Tap-On
For prophy operation, the first position activates Rinse Mode.
the second position activates Air Polishing Mode.

SECTION 9: System Setup,
Operation and Techniques for
Use
9.1 Handpiece Setup
•
Follow Precautions listed in the general and air polishing
sections of 4.2 Procedural precautions. This handpiece is
sterilizable. Refer to Infection Control Information Booklet
for sterilization instructions prior to using handpiece.
•
Connect the Jet-Mate™ Handpiece to the Cable Assembly
by aligning the electrical connections. If Cable Assembly
does not seat into the handpiece, gently rotate the
handpiece until contacts align, then fully insert handpiece.
•
Hold empty Jet-Mate™ handpiece in a semi-upright
position over a sink or drain. Activate the Tap-On
Foot Pedal until water exits to release any air bubbles
that might be trapped inside the handpiece. Avoid
letting water into the Powder Delivery Port as clogging
may result. NOTE: Tap-On
when an Jet Air Polishing Insert is in the handpiece.
•
Align the powder delivery tube on the JET Air Polishing
insert with the powder delivery port on the Jet-Mate™
handpiece and gently push into the Jet-Mate™ handpiece
until fully seated. DO NOT FORCE.
•
Turn the Lavage Control to select flow rate during
system operation. Flow rate is placed on a scale from 1 to
6. Turn control clockwise toward 6 to increase flow at air
polishing insert tip. Turn control counter-clockwise toward
1 to decrease flow. The flow rate through the Jet-Mate™
handpiece also determines the temperature of the lavage.
Lower water flow rates produce warmer lavage.
