Brushing instructions
you adapt to brushing with a Philips Sonicare
toothbrush.
Wet the bristles and apply a small amount of
1
toothpaste.
2 Place the toothbrush bristles against the teeth at a
slight angle (45 degrees), pressing gently to make
the bristles reach the gumline or slightly beneath
the gumline.
Note: Keep the center of the brush in contact with
the teeth at all times.
3 Press the power on/off button to turn on the
Philips Sonicare.
4 Gently keep the bristles placed on the teeth and in
the gumline. Brush your teeth with small back and
forth motion so the bristles reach between the
teeth. Continue this motion throughout your
brushing cycle.
Note: The bristles should slightly flare. It is not
recommended to scrub as you would with a
manual toothbrush.
5 To clean the inside surfaces of the front teeth, tilt
the brush handle semi-upright and make several
vertical overlapping brushing strokes on each
tooth.
Note: To make sure you brush evenly throughout
the mouth, divide your mouth into 4 sections using
the Quadpacer feature (see chapter 'Features').
6 Begin brushing in section 1 (outside upper teeth)
and brush for 30 seconds before you move to
section 2 (inside upper teeth). Continue brushing in
section 3 (outside lower teeth) and brush for 30
seconds before you move to section 4 (inside
lower teeth).
