Using your Philips Sonicare

Brushing instructions

1 Press the brush head onto the handle in such a way that the

bristles will face the front of the handle. (Fig. 3)

2 Firmly press the brush head down onto the metal shaft until it

stops. Note: It is normal to see a slight gap between the brush head and

the handle.

3 Wet the bristles. (Fig. 4) 4 Apply a small amount of toothpaste on the bristles. (Fig. 5) 5 Place the toothbrush bristles against the teeth at a slight angle (45

degrees), pressing firmly to make the bristles reach the gumline or slightly beneath the gumline. (Fig. 6) A change in vibration (and a slight change in sound) alerts you when you apply too much pressure while brushing.

Note: Keep the center of the brush in contact with the teeth at all times.

6 Press the power on/off button to turn on the Philips Sonicare. (Fig.

7 Gently keep the bristles placed on the teeth and in the gumline.

Brush your teeth with small back and forth motion so the bristles reach between the teeth. (Fig. 8)

English

Note: The bristles should slightly flare. Do not scrub.

8 To clean the inside surfaces of the front teeth, tilt the brush handle

semi-upright and make several vertical overlapping brushing strokes on each tooth. (Fig. 9)

9 To make sure you brush evenly throughout the mouth, divide the

mouth into 4 sections using the Quadpacer feature. (Fig. 10) The quadpacer feature beeps after 30 seconds.

10 Brush for the full 2 minutes following the Quadpacer. (Fig. 11) After

2 minutes, the toothbrush will automatically shut off.

In white mode, after 2 minutes the handle will continue to brush for 30 seconds so that you can brighten and polish your front teeth.

In gum care mode, after 2 minutes the handle will continue to brush for an additional minute so you can gently stimulate and massage your gums.

- After you have completed the brushing cycle, you can spend additional time brushing the chewing surfaces of your teeth and areas where staining occurs. (Fig. 12)

Your Philips Sonicare toothbrush is safe to use on:

- Braces (brush heads wear out sooner when used on braces)

- Dental restorations (fillings, crowns, veneers)

Note: When the Philips Sonicare toothbrush is used in clinical studies, it must be used in the Clean mode (for plaque and gum health claims) or in White mode (for whitening claims) at high intensity with EasyStart turned off.

EasyStart

This Philips Sonicare model comes with the EasyStart feature activated. The EasyStart feature gently increases the power over the first 14 brushings to help you get used to the brushing with the Philips Sonicare. The EasyStart feature works in all modes.

To deactivate EasyStart see 'Activating or deactivating features'.

Brush head replacement reminder

Your Philips Sonicare is equipped with BrushSync technology that tracks the wear of your brush head. (Fig. 13)

1 When attaching a new smart brush head for the first time the

brush head replacement reminder light blinks green three times. This confirms you have a Philips brush head with BrushSync technology.

2 Over time, based on the pressure you apply and the amount of

time used, the handle will track brush head wear in order to determine the optimal time to change your brush head. This feature gives you the guarantee for the best cleaning and care of your teeth.

3 When the brush head replacement reminder light lights up amber,

you should replace your brush head.

To deactivate the brush head replacement reminder see 'Activating or deactivating features'.

Pressure sensor

Your Philips Sonicare is equipped with an advanced sensor that measures the pressure you apply while brushing. If you apply too much pressure, the toothbrush will provide immediate feedback to indicate that you need to reduce the pressure. This feedback is given by a change in vibration and therefore brushing sensation.

To deactivate the pressure sensor see 'Activating or deactivating features'.

Quadpacer

The Quadpacer is an interval timer that has a short beep and pause to remind you to brush the different sections of your mouth.

English

Depending on the brushing mode you have selected (see 'Brushing modes'), the Quadpacer beeps at different intervals during the brushing cycle.
