• Small parts may come off, keep out of reach of children.
To avoid brush head breakage which may generate a small
parts choking hazard or damage teeth:
• Prior to each use, ensure the brush head fits well. Discon-
tinue use of the toothbrush, if brush head no longer fits
properly. Never use without a brush head.
• If the toothbrush handle is dropped, the brush head should
be replaced before the next use even if no damage is visible.
• Replace brush head every 3 months or sooner if brush head
becomes worn.
• Clean brush head properly after each use (see «Cleaning
recommendations» paragraph). Proper cleaning ensures
the safe use and functional life of the toothbrush.
Important Information

First use
Please wake up your toothbrush by pressing the on/off button

Using your toothbrush
Start Brushing
Place the brush head on the handle. A small gap should
remain between handle and brush head. Lift the handle off the
plugged-in charger or simply pick it up to wake up the handle
(display turns on). Wet brush head and apply toothpaste. To
avoid splashing, guide the brush head to your teeth before
switching the handle on by pressing the on/off button.
Note: Display turns off after some time. You may press the
on/off button to activate display again.
Guide the brush head from tooth to tooth. Brush the outsides,
the insides and 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. After brushing, the display gives you feedback based on your brushing
time.
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/or
gums, Oral-B recommends using the «Sensitive» or «Super
Sensitive» modes (optional in combination with an Oral-B
«Gentle Care» brush head (d)). Availability of modes are
depending on model purchased.
Timer
The timer signals with a short stuttering sound at 30-seconds
intervals to move to the next quadrant of your mouth. A long
stuttering sound indicates the end of the professionally recommended 2-minute brushing time.
The timer memorizes the elapsed brushing time, even when
the handle is briefly switched off during brushing. The timer
resets if pausing longer than 30 seconds or placing the handle
on the plugged-in charger.
Note: During the use of the Oral-B App, the timer may be deactivated for some features.
Note: You may also customize the timer settings via Oral-B
App.
Smart Pressure Sensor features (a)
Your toothbrush is equipped with a Smart Pressure Sensor (3)
that has various functionalities indicated via different colours of
light:
White (default) = Operating indicator (choose individual colour
via Oral-B App (b)) / Low pressure indicator
Red = high pressure indicator / low battery indicator
Brush with the right pressure indicated with a green light. If too
much pressure is applied, it lights up in red reminding you to
reduce pressure. If the Smart Pressure Sensor illuminates in
white (or your pre-selected colour), we recommend applying
more pressure.
During high pressure the brush head movement will be
reduced (in «Daily Clean», «Intense» and «Sensitive» modes).
Periodically check the operation of the Smart Pressure Sensor
by pressing moderately on the brush head during use.
Note: During the use of the Oral-B App, the Smart Pressure
Sensor feedback may be inactive for some features.
Note: Smart Pressure Sensor is deactivated during «Tongue
Clean» mode. (depending on model).
Brushing modes (depending on model)
Your toothbrush offers different brushing modes indicated on
the display:
«Daily Clean» – Standard mode for daily cleaning

«Whiten» – Polishing for occasional or everyday use
«Intense» – For an extraordinary clean feeling
(operated with a higher speed)
«Super Sensitive» – Super gentle cleaning for extra sensitive
areas
«Tongue Clean» – Tongue cleaning for occasional or everyday
use
Note: The sequence and availability of brushing modes may
vary depending on model purchased.
When operating the «Tongue Clean» mode, we recommend
using a «Gentle Care» brush head (d). You can brush your
tongue either with or without toothpaste. Brush the whole area
of your tongue systematically in gentle movements. The recommended brushing time is 30 seconds; the motor stops after
30 seconds.
Mode setting:
You may first choose your default mode by pressing the mode
button (8) successively once the handle is awake (display
10
turned on). Select a mode by pressing the on/off button (7).
Your toothbrush starts in the selected default mode. You may
also change modes during brushing.
Note: You may also customize mode settings via Oral-B App.

above standard battery current.
Brush heads
Oral-B offers you a variety of different Oral-B iO brush heads
(c/d) that only fit your Oral-B iO toothbrush handle and can be
used for tooth-by-tooth precision cleaning.
Most iO Oral-B brush heads feature INDICATOR® bristles to
help you monitor brush head replacement need. With thorough brushing, twice a day for two minutes, the bristle colour
will fade halfway approximately within 3 months, indicating
the need to exchange your brush head. If the bristles splay
before the colour recedes, you may exert too much pressure
on teeth and gums. In general, we recommend replacing the
brush head every 3 months.

Although all indicated functions on the Bluetooth device are
supported, Oral-B does not ensure 100% reliability in connection, and feature operation consistency.
Operation performance and connection reliability are direct
consequences of each individual Bluetooth device, software
version, as well as the operating system of those Bluetooth
devices and company security regulations implemented on
the device.
Oral-B adheres to and strictly implements the Bluetooth
standard by which Bluetooth devices can communicate and
function in Oral-B toothbrushes.
However, if device manufacturers fail to implement this
standard, Bluetooth compatibility and features will be further
compromised and the user may experience functional and
feature-related issues. Please note that the software on the
Bluetooth device can significantly affect compatibility and
operation.
Warranty replacement brush heads
Oral-B warranty will be voided if electric rechargeable handle
damage is found to be attributed to the use of non-Oral-B
replacement brush heads.
Oral-B does not recommend the use of non-Oral-B replacement brush heads.
• Oral-B has no control over the quality of non-Oral-B
replacement brush heads. Therefore, we cannot ensure the
cleaning performance of non-Oral-B replacement brush
heads, as communicated with the electric rechargeable
handle at time of initial purchase.
• Oral-B cannot ensure a good fit of non-Oral-B replacement
brush heads.
