bristles help you monitor and improve
your brushing performance. With proper brushing, twice a day
for two minutes, the blue color on the INDICATOR

will disappear half-way down within 3–4 months, signaling it is
time to change the brushhead.
Interspace brushhead (available with «deluxe» model)
The Interspace brushhead is designed for cleaning between
teeth as well as around bridges, crowns and implants. To use,
position brushhead at 45 degree angle to gumline.
Slowly guide the brushhead along the gumline, pausing
between teeth for optimal results.
Replacement brushheads
Available at retail stores or Braun Service Centers.
During the first few days of using the 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 hygienist.
Cleaning
• Rinse the brushhead thoroughly under running water
for several seconds with the handle switched on.
• Switch off the appliance and remove the brushhead
from the handle. Clean both parts separately under running
water, then wipe them dry.
• From time to time, also clean the charging unit and the
brushhead compartment with a damp cloth.
• For cleaning purposes, the brushhead compartment is
removable.
The environment
For environmental reasons, your toothbrush uses an
«environmentally sound» nickel-hydride rechargeable
battery. The battery does not contain any poisonous
heavy metals that can damage the environment.
In the interest of recycling, please do not dispose of this
appliance in the household waste at the end of its useful life.
Instead dispose of it at an authorized Braun Service Center or
at an appropriate collection site.
However, if you prefer to dispose of the battery yourself,
please refer to the section «Battery removal» on page 22.
Subject to change without notice.
