Charging and Operating
Your toothbrush is electrically safe and
designed for use in the bathroom.
• Plug the charging unit (f) into an electrical
outlet and place the handle (e) on the
charging unit (picture 1).
• During charging the indicator light (d)
fades in/out or all 3 mode indicators fade
in/out (depending on model). Once the
toothbrush is fully charged the light(s)
turn(s) off. A full charge can take up to
24 hours and enables up to 2 weeks of
regular brushing (twice a day, 2 minutes).
• If the battery is running low, the charge
indicator (d) light is flashing or all 3 mode
indicators are flashing for a few seconds
after turning your toothbrush off (depend-
ing on model). It is recommended to
recharge the toothbrush by then.
• To maintain the maximum capacity of the
rechargeable battery, unplug the charging
unit and fully discharge the handle with
regular use at least every 6 months.

Using your toothbrush

Brushing technique
• Slide the brush head on the handle. Wet
brush head and apply any kind of tooth-
paste. To avoid splashing, guide the
brush head to your teeth before switching
on your toothbrush.
• Place the brush head on the outside sur-
face of your upper teeth. The toothbrush
bristles should be placed against the
teeth at a slight angle towards the gum-
line.
• Turn your toothbrush on and start brush-
ing in a slightly circular motion (picture 4).
Apply light pressure during brushing. After
a few seconds, guide the bristles to the
next section. Brush inside, outside and
chewing surfaces of your teeth with the
same motion throughout the mouth for
the recommended 2 minutes.
• To avoid splashing, turn your toothbrush
off before removing from the mouth by
pressing the on/off button (b).
You may experience a slight tickling or
tingling sensation when you first use your
toothbrush. This will subside as your teeth
and gums will become accustomed to the
cleaning experience.
In the first few days of using any electric
toothbrush, your gums may bleed slightly. In
general, bleeding should stop after a few
days. Should it persist after 2 weeks, please
consult your dentist or your dental hygienist.
Brushing modes (depending on model)
Your toothbrush offers different brushing
modes for varying oral care needs:
«Daily Clean» – Gentle, effective mouth
cleaning.
«White» – Whitening mode for occasional
or everyday use.
«Sensitive» – Gentle, yet thorough
cleaning for sensitive areas.
When pressing the on/off button (b), your
toothbrush automatically starts in «Daily
Clean» mode. To switch mode(s) succes-
sively press the on/off button. To turn your
toothbrush off, press and hold the on/off
button until the motor stops (picture 2).
Timer
A short stuttering sound at 30-second inter-
vals (one break) reminds you to brush all
four quadrants of your mouth equally (pic-
ture 3). A long stuttering sound (two breaks)
indicates the end of the professionally rec-
ommended 2-minute brushing time.
If the toothbrush is turned off during brush-
ing, the elapsed brushing time will be mem-
orised for 2 minutes. When pausing longer
than 2 minutes the timer resets.
