Important Information

• Your Oral-B toothbrush can be used with your
smartphone (find details under «Connecting your
toothbrush to your Smartphone»).
• To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or
compatibility conflicts, deactivate the radio
transmission of your toothbrush handle (5) before
using it in restricted surroundings, such as aircrafts
or specially marked areas in hospitals.
• Deactivate radio transmission by simultaneously
pressing the on/off (3) and mode button (4) for 2
seconds until the radio transmission display (7)
goes off. Follow the same procedure to reactivate
transmission again.
• Persons with pacemakers should always keep the
toothbrush more than six inches (15 centimeters)
from the pacemaker while turned on. Anytime you
suspect interference is taking place, deactivate the
radio transmission of your handle.

First use – Connecting
and charging
Prior to first use, you may briefly place the handle (5) on
the plugged-in charging unit (9) to activate it. Once the
charge level display (8) illuminates, it is ready for use.
Note: In case battery is empty (no lights illuminated on
charge level display), charge at least for 30 minutes.
Charging and operating information
Your toothbrush has a waterproof handle, is electrically
safe and designed for use in the bathroom.
• To charge the handle (5), place it on the plugged-in
charging unit (9). The charge level is indicated on the
charge level display (8). The flashing lights indicate
that the handle is charging (picture ➀); once it is fully
charged, the lights turn off. A full charge takes about
12 hours and enables up to 12 days of regular
brushing (twice a day, 2 minutes). Note: At a very
low charge level, the lights might not flash
immediately; it can take up to 10 minutes.
• If the battery is running low, a red light is flashing on
the charge level display and the motor is reducing its
speed. Once the battery is empty, the motor will stop;
it will need at least a 30-minute charge for one usage.
• You can always store the handle on the plugged-in
charging unit to maintain it at full power; a battery
overcharge is prevented by device.
Note: Store handle at room temperature for optimal
battery maintenance.
Caution: Do not expose handle to temperatures
higher than 50°C.

Using your toothbrush

Brushing technique
Wet brush head and apply any kind of toothpaste. To
avoid splashing, guide the brush head to your teeth
before switching on the handle (picture ➁). When
brushing your teeth with one of the Oral-B oscillating-
rotating brush heads guide the brush head slowly
from tooth to tooth, spending a few seconds on each
tooth surface (picture ➂). When using the Oral-B «Deep
Sweep» brush head place the toothbrush bristles
against the teeth at a slight angle towards the gumline.
Apply light pressure and start brushing in back and
forth motions, just like you would do with a manual
toothbrush.
With any brush head start brushing the outsides, then
the insides and finally the chewing surfaces. Brush all
four quadrants of your mouth equally. You may also
consult your dentist or dental hygienist about the right
technique for you.
In the first 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 dental hygienist. If you
have sensitive teeth and/or gums, Oral-B recommends
using the «Sensitive» mode (optional in combination
with an Oral-B «Sensitive» brush head).
Smart Ring features
Your toothbrush is equipped with a Smart Ring (2) that
has various functionalities indicated via different colors
of light:
White (default) = Operating and visual timer light
(choose individual color via Oral-B™ app settings)
Red = Pressure sensor light
Blue = Bluetooth® pairing indicator
