Charging and Operating
Your toothbrush is electrically safe and designed for use in
the bathroom.
• You may use your toothbrush right away or charge it briefly
by placing it on the plugged-in charger (f).
Note: In case the battery is empty (no charging light illu-
minated (e) while charging or no reaction when pressing
the on/off button (c)), charge at least for 30 minutes.
• The charge indicator light (e) flashes green while the
handle is being charged. Once it is fully charged, the
light turns off. A full charge typically takes 12 hours and
enables at least 2 weeks of regular brushing (twice a day,
2 minutes) (picture 1).
Note: After deep discharge, the charge indicator light
might not flash immediately; it can take up to 30 minutes.
• If the battery is running low, the charge indicator light (e)
flashes red for a few seconds when turning your tooth-
brush on/off 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 charg-
ing unit; 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. Recommended ambient temperature for
charging is 5 °C to 35 °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 appliance (picture 2). 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 5).
With any brush head do not forget to brush all 3 surfaces
of your teeth: chewing, outer and inner 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
