handle (c) on the charging unit.
•
The green charge indicator light (d) flashes while the handle is
being charged. Once it is fully charged the light turns off. A full
charge can take up to 22 hours and enables up to seven days of

immediately; it can take up to 10–15 minutes.

If the rechargeable battery is low the red charge indicator light (e)
is flashing for some seconds when turning your toothbrush on/
off.
•
For everyday use, the handle can be stored on the charging unit
to maintain it at full power. Overcharging is impossible.
•
To maintain the maximum capacity of the rechargeable battery,
unplug the charging unit and fully discharge the handle with
regular use at least every 6 months.
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 3). When brushing your teeth with one of the
rotating brush heads guide the brush head slowly from tooth to
tooth, spending a few seconds on each tooth surface.
When using the TriZone brush head place the toothbrush bristles
against the teeth at a slight angle towards the gumline. Apply light
pressure and start brushing in back and forth motions, just like you
would do with a manual toothbrush.
With any brush head start brushing the outsides, then the insides
and finally the chewing surfaces. Brush all four quadrants of
your mouth equally. You may also consult your dentist or dental
hygienist about the right technique for you (picture 5).
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 consult your dentist or
dental hygienist. If you have sensitive teeth and gums, Oral-B
recommends using the «Sensitive» mode (depending on model).
Brushing modes (depending on model)
«Daily Clean» –
Standard mode for daily mouth cleaning
«Sensitive» –
Gentle, yet thorough cleaning for sensitive areas
How to switch between modes:
•
When pressing the on/off button (b) your toothbrush automatically
starts in the «Daily Clean» mode.
•
To switch to the «Sensitive» mode, successively press the on/off
button.
•
To turn off your toothbrush from the «Sensitive» mode, press the
on/off button once more.
•
If you wish to turn off your toothbrush from the «Daily Clean» or
«Sensitive» mode, push and hold down the on/off button until the
motor stops.
Pressure Sensor
To promote optimal brushing your toothbrush has a pressure
control feature installed. If too much pressure is applied, the
movement of the brush head will continue but its pulsation will
stop. In addition you will also hear a different sound while brushing.
Professional Timer
A short stuttering sound at 30-second intervals reminds you to
brush equally all four quadrants of your mouth (picture 4).
A long stuttering sound indicates the end of the professionally
recommended 2-minute brushing time. The elapsed brushing time
is memorised, even when the handle is briefly switched off during
brushing. When pausing longer than 30 seconds the timer resets.
Brush heads
Oral-B offers you a variety of different brush heads that fit your
Oral-B toothbrush.
Oral-B Precision Clean brush head
cups each tooth with a curved bristle trim and reaches
deep between teeth at the same time.
