Using the toothbrush
This product can be used with any toothpaste.
To avoid splashing, guide the brushhead to your teeth
before switching the appliance on.
Operating the switch
The toothbrush features two speed options, the lower speed
being optimal for sensitive areas in the mouth.
• Press the switch to operate with normal speed,
• Press a second time to operate with reduced speed,
• Press a third time to switch the unit off.
Removing plaque
Guide the brushhead slowly from tooth to tooth. Hold the
brushhead in place for a few seconds before moving on to
the next tooth.
Brush the gums as well as the teeth, first the outsides, then
the insides, finally the chewing surfaces. Do not press too hard
or scrub, simply let the brush do all the work.
Memory Timer
An incorporated timer memorizes the elapsed brushing time,
even when the handle is briefly (max. 30 seconds) switched
off. After two minutes – which is the minimum recommended
brushing time – the timer signals by a short stutter.
Pressure Sensor
For safety and optimum brushing results, the toothbrush
has a pressure control system: If too much pressure is applied,
the oscillating movement of the brushhead will continue,
but the pulsation will stop. In addition to feeling it, you can also
hear the difference.
