Specifications
Power supply: see bottom of charging unit
Handle voltage: 1.2 V
Connecting and charging
The toothbrush is electrically safe
and can be used in the bathroom without
hesitation.
•
Plug the charging unit into an electrical
outlet. Place the handle on the charging
unit. Handle must be switched off.
•
A full charge takes 16 hours and will
provide an operation time of approx.
20 minutes.
•
For everyday use, the handle can be
stored on the plugged-in charging unit
to maintain the plaque remover at full
power. Overcharging is impossible.
Battery maintenance
To maintain the maximum capacity of the
rechargeable battery, unplug the charging
unit and discharge the handle by regular
use at least every 6 months.
Using the toothbrush
The toothbrush can be used with any leading
brand of toothpaste.
•
To avoid splashing, guide the brushhead to
your teeth before switching the appliance
on.
•
Slowly guide the brushhead 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 and
finally the chewing surfaces.
•
Do not press too hard or scrub, simply
let the brush do all the work.
•
To thoroughly remove plaque, brush for
at least two minutes.
Timer
( D 8511, D 8513 only )
An incorporated timer memorises
the elapsed brushing time. After
two minutes the timer signals
by a short stutter.
During the first days of using the plaque
remover, your gums may bleed slightly.
In general, bleeding should stop after a few
days. Should it persist after two weeks,
please consult your dentist or hygienist.
Dentists recommend that you replace any
toothbrush every 3 months, since worn
bristles do not remove plaque as effectively
as new ones. Therefore, the brushhead is
provided with INDICATOR
®
bristles ( I.a).
With proper brushing twice a day for two
minutes, the colour will disappear halfway
down the bristles in a 3-month period,
provided you use toothpaste (I.b). If the
bristles splay before the colour recedes
( I.c), you are exerting too much pressure
on teeth and gums.
Replacement brushheads
Available at your retailer or Braun Service
Centres.
Cleaning
After use, rinse the brushhead for several
seconds under running water with the handle
switched on (II ). Then switch off the handle
and take off the brushhead. Rinse both parts
separately under running water (III ) and wipe
them dry.
From time to time, also clean the charging
unit with a damp cloth.
