Your toothbrush has a waterproof
handle, is electrically safe and
designed for use in the bathroom.
Plug the charging unit (D) into an

power. Overcharging is impossible.
However for environmental reasons,
Oral-B recommends to unplug the
charging unit until the next recharge
is required.

the rechargeable battery, unplug the
charging unit and discharge the handle
by regular use at least every 6 months.

leading brand of toothpaste.

thoroughly remove plaque. Do not
press too hard or scrub.

day for two minutes, the blue color will
fade halfway down approximately in
a 3-month period (I.b). If the bristles
splay before the colour recedes (I.c),

teeth and gums.
During the first days of using the
toothbrush, 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 dental hygienist.
