Connecting and charging
Your toothbrush has a waterproof handle, is electrically safe and
designed for use in the bathroom.
• Plug the basic charger (g) or the assembled charging unit (see
picture B/C, page 2) into an electrical outlet and place the
toothbrush handle (d) on the charging unit.
• The green charge indicator light (e) flashes while the handle is
being charged. Once it is fully charged, the green charge indicator
light shines continuously for 5 seconds; then it turns off. A full
charge takes at least 17 hours and enables approximately one
week of regular brushing (twice a day, 2 minutes).
• When the rechargeable battery is low, the red low charge indicator
light (f) starts flashing after turning the toothbrush off.
• For everyday use, the toothbrush handle can be stored on the
charging unit to maintain it at full power. Overcharging is impos-
sible. However for environmental reasons, Oral-B recommends to
unplug the charging unit until the next recharge is required.
• 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.
Please note: If the charge indicator light is not flashing immediately,
continue charging. It will appear in 10–15 minutes.
Using your toothbrush
Wet brush head and apply toothpaste; you can use any kind of
toothpaste. To avoid splashing, guide the brush head to your teeth
before switching on the appliance. Guide the brush head slowly
from tooth to tooth, spending a few seconds on each tooth surface.
Brush the gums as well as the teeth, first the outsides, then the
insides, finally the chewing surfaces (see picture 5, page 2). Do not
press too hard or scrub.
Brushing modes (depending on model)
«Daily Clean»
«Sensitive»
«Whitening»
All three brush heads feature light blue INDICATOR bristles to help
you monitor brush head replacement need. With thorough brushing,
twice a day for two minutes, the blue color will fade halfway
approximately within 3 months, signalling it is time to replace the
brush head.
How to switch between modes:
• When pressing the on/off button (c) your toothbrush automatically
starts in the «Daily Clean» mode.
• To switch to the «Sensitive» and «Whitening» mode, successively
press the on/off button.
• To turn off your toothbrush from the «Whitening» mode, push the
on/off button once more.
• If you wish to turn off your toothbrush from the «Daily Clean» or
«Sensitive» mode, push and hold down the on/off button until the
motor stops.
Pressure Sensor
Helping protect your teeth and gums from hard brushing, your
toothbrush has a pressure control feature installed. If too much
pressure is applied, the red pressure sensor light (b) will light
reminding you to reduce pressure (see picture 3, page 2). In
addition you will also hear a different sound while brushing.
Periodically check the operation of the pressure sensor by pressing
lightly on the brush head during use.
Professional Timer
A short stuttering sound at 30-second intervals reminds you to
brush all four quadrants of your mouth equally (see picture 4,
page 2). A long stuttering sound indicates the end of the profes-
sionally recommended 2-minute brushing time. The elapsed
brushing time is memorised when the handle is briefly switched off
during brushing. When pausing longer than 30 seconds the timer
resets.
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
