Connecting and charging

The toothbrush is electrically safe and can be used in the bathroom without hesitation.

• Plug the charging unit into an electrical outlet. Place the handle on the charging unit

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.

Professional timer

With a signal you can hear and feel, the timer invites you to brush quadrant by quadrant. After every 30 seconds, it signals by a very short stutter that it is time to move to the next quadrant. After two

minutes – which is the recommended brushing time – the timer signals by a longer 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.

INDICATOR® bristles

The INDICATOR® 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 months, signaling it is time to change the brushhead.

Power Tip

The Power Tip® 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.

• 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.
