Oral-B® Triumph® with SmartGuide™ has
been carefully designed to offer you and your
family a unique brushing experience that is both
safe and effective. When using electrical products, however, some basic safety precautions
should always be followed.
IMPORTANT
• The Oral-B Triumph is provided with a
SmartPlug (integrated Safety Extra Low
Voltage) power supply. Do not exchange or
manipulate any part of it, as there is a risk
of electric shock. Periodically check the
SmartPlug for damage and if the appliance is
damaged or non-functional, stop use of the
product. Take damaged units to an Oral-B

First use
Before brushing for the first time, charge your
toothbrush. Plug the SmartPlug into an electrical
outlet and place the handle (d) on the charging
ring (f), (see «Connecting and charging»).
• Your SmartGuide display comes with a
demonstration mode activated. To leave this
mode please remove the compartment cover
on the back and push the «set» or the «h/min»
button, located in the battery compartment.
Please note that your SmartGuide display will
self-activate this demonstration mode when
you do not use your toothbrush for 28 days.
You can avoid this self-activation by setting
the clock or synchronizing your handle.

• By briefly pressing the «h/min» button, you
can toggle between a «12h» or «24h» daytime
format. Push the «set» button to confirm your
choice.
• Then the hour digit starts flashing. Press the
«h/min» button until the right hour appears
and confirm with the «set» button. Proceed
the same way to set both minute digits. If you
prefer not using this clock feature, the flashing
«12:00» will disappear automatically after
24 hours.
• Plug the SmartPlug into an electrical outlet
and place the toothbrush handle (d) on the
charging unit. A battery symbol should appear
in the handle display (e). The battery symbol
will fill up while the handle is being charged.
Once the handle is fully charged, the battery
symbol will be filled with four bars. A full
charge takes at least 10 hours to complete
and allows for approximately 10 days of
regular brushing (twice a day, 2 minutes).
Please note: If the battery symbol is not
displayed immediately, continue charging.
It will appear in 10–15 minutes.
• When the rechargeable battery is low, the
battery symbol with one remaining bar starts
flashing. Your toothbrush will slow down
and then stop. When the battery is fully
discharged, the empty frame of the battery
symbol flashes. It will then need a 15-minute
charge before you can use it for a 2-minute
brushing.
You can start your toothbrush by pressing the
on/off button (b). To avoid splashing, guide the
brush head to your teeth before switching on
the appliance.

Connecting and charging
Your toothbrush has a waterproof handle, is

plate (g). Then, place the base plate on the
charging ring (f) until it clicks into place.

• For everyday use, the toothbrush handle can
be stored on the charging unit to maintain it at
full power. There is no risk of overcharging the
battery.
• 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.
For electric specifications, please see printing
on the SmartPlug.
Personalizing the timer
You can choose between the «Professional» or
«2-Minute» timer and the «Count Up» or «Count
Down» timer to meet your specific needs.
The «2-Minute Timer» indicates by a long
stuttering sound and a «smiley» on the
SmartGuide display unit that the dentist
recommended 2-minute brushing time has been
reached. In addition the «Professional Timer»
helps you brushing all four quadrants of your
mouth equally. It signals with a short stuttering
sound at 30-second intervals (45-second
intervals within «Deep Clean» mode) and the
«quadrant circle» on the SmartGuide display unit
that it is time to move to the next quadrant of
your mouth.

to the «2-Minute Timer». Confirm your choice
by pushing the brushing mode button (c).
• This will lead you directly to the «Count Up
Timer» display («up» and «timer» will be
shown). Switch to the «Count Down Timer»
by pressing the on/off button and confirm it
with the mode button (c).
Both timers memorize the elapsed brushing
time, even when the handle is briefly switched
off during brushing. When pausing longer than
30 seconds, the timer resets to the initial
starting point.
The «Count Up Timer» displays your actual
brushing time. The «Count Down Timer»
indicates the remaining brushing time. Starting
with «2:00» minutes, it goes down to «0:00».
When brushing longer than two minutes, it
automatically changes to the «Count Up Timer».
The total brushing time can be extended to
3 minutes by using the «Deep Clean» mode
(see «Brushing modes»).
Your toothbrush comes with the «Professional
Timer» and the «Count Up Timer» activated. If
you wish to change these settings, proceed as
follows:
• Press and hold the mode button (c) until the
SmartGuide display unit (j) shows «:30» and
«timer».

Brushing
Brushing technique
• Guide the brush head slowly from tooth to
tooth.
• Hold the brush head 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. When you finish
brushing, the total brushing time will be
displayed for 30 seconds before the display
switches back to the time mode. To directly
get to the time mode, clear the brushing time
display by pushing the mode button.
Your toothbrush has a pressure control feature
to help ensure that the right degree of pressure
is applied. This helps protect your gums from
13
excessive brushing and makes your toothbrush
easy to operate. If too much pressure is applied,
the oscillating movement of the brush head will
continue but the pulsation will stop. In addition
to feeling the change, you can also hear a
different sound.
Brush heads
The Oral-B FlossAction brush head (a) is
recommended for everyday deep cleaning. It
features micropulse bristles that get deep in
hard-to-reach areas between your teeth, gently
removing hidden plaque.
In the first few days of using your 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.
Brushing modes
Your toothbrush offers different brushing modes
for varying oral care needs:
«Daily Clean» – Exceptional mouth cleaning.
«Sensitive» – Gentle, yet thorough cleaning
for sensitive areas.
«Massage» – Gentle massage of gums.
«Whitening» – Polishing and whitening for
occasional or everyday use.
«Deep Clean» – Exceptional mouth cleaning
with extended brushing time.
Within this mode the brushing
time has been extended to
45 seconds per quadrant for
a total brushing time of
3 minutes.
• When pressing the on/off button, your toothbrush automatically starts in the «Daily Clean»
mode.
• To switch to the other modes, successively
press the mode button (c).
For occasional or everyday whitening, please
use the Oral-B ProWhite (i) brush head (not
with all models). It features a dentist-inspired
polishing cup to remove surface stains from
coffee, tea and tobacco for effective brightening.
Please note that children under 12 years old
should not use the Oral-B ProWhite brush head.
aa
ii
Do not use the Oral-B FlossAction or Oral-B
ProWhite brush head with braces. We recommend using the Oral-B Ortho brush head, which
is specifically designed to clean around braces
and wires.
All brush heads feature blue Indicator
®
bristles
helping you to monitor brush head replacement
need. With proper brushing, twice a day for
two minutes, the blue color will fade halfway
approximately within 3 months, signalling that it
is time to change the brush head.
• To return from any mode to the «Daily Clean»
mode, press and hold the mode button.
• To turn your brush off, press the on/off button.
Please note: The «Whitening» mode is best used
with an Oral-B ProWhite (i) brush head.

the adhesive tape (l) to fix the wall mount.
Before doing so, make sure the chosen surface
is clean and dry (remove grease and dust first).
Position the wall mount that the Oral-B logo
is readable. Then, press the wall mount evenly
Cleaning recommendations
• After brushing, rinse your brush head
thoroughly under running water.
• Remove the brush head from the handle and
clean both parts separately under running
water. Then, wipe them dry before returning
the handle to the charging unit.
• Before cleaning your charging unit, make sure
you disassemble it first. The charging ring
and SmartPlug should never be placed in the
dishwasher. All other parts (base plate and
protective cover) are dishwasher-safe.
• From time to time, you can also clean the
charging ring, SmartPlug and SmartGuide
display unit with a damp cloth. Both the
SmartPlug charger and SmartGuide display
unit should never be placed in water.

In order to avoid interference of display
messages when using more than one Oral-B
Triumph toothbrush with separate SmartGuide
display units in the same household, you need
to assign the handles to their respective display
units. Please follow the steps below:
• Push the «h/min» button in the battery
compartment for at least 3 seconds. The
SmartGuide display unit shows «L---», indicating the «Learn» mode for synchronization
is activated.
• Now you are requested by a flashing
on/off button in the toothbrush icon on the
SmartGuide display unit to turn the handle on.
When doing so, the automatic synchronization
process starts. It is finished when «L-1-» is
displayed.
• Then turn off the handle.
If you would like to assign a second handle to
the same SmartGuide display unit, repeat the
last two steps described above with the other
handle. You can exit the «Learn» mode by
pressing the «h/min» or «set» button. Otherwise
the «Learn» mode will automatically end after
30 seconds.
Deactivating the radio
transmission
If you want to use or carry your toothbrush in
surroundings where radio controlled appliances
are not allowed (e.g. hospitals or aircraft),
deactivate the radio transmission first by
pressing the on/off and mode button
simultaneously for 3 seconds. The handle
display shows the radio deactivation icon. If you
want to reactivate the radio transmission, press
both buttons again for 3 seconds and the
display icon disappears.
