Getting started
Attaching the brush head
Align the brush head so the bristles point in the
1
same direction as the front of the handle.
Firmly press the brush head down onto the metal
2
shaft until it stops.
Note: It is normal to see a slight gap between the
brush head and the handle. This allows the brush
head to vibrate properly.
Charging your SonicPro
Plug the USB charging cord into a wall adapter that
1
is connected to a electrical outlet.
Place the handle on the charger.
2
- The light of the battery level indicator
illuminates and the handle beeps twice. This
indicates that the toothbrush is charging.
Note: It can take up to 24 hours to fully charge the
battery, but you can use the SonicPro toothbrush
before it is fully charged.
Using your SonicPro
If you are using your SonicPro toothbrush for the first
time, it is normal to feel more vibration than when
using a non-electric toothbrush. It is common for first
time users to apply too much pressure. Only apply
gentle pressure and let the toothbrush do the
brushing for you. Please follow brushing instructions
below for the best experience. To help you transition
to your new SonicPro power toothbrush, it comes with
the EasyStart feature turned on. This feature gently
increases the power over the first 14 brushings to help

you adapt to brushing with a Philips Colgate SonicPro
toothbrush.
Brushing instructions
Wet the bristles and apply a small amount of
1
toothpaste.
Place the toothbrush bristles against the teeth at a
2
slight angle (45 degrees), pressing gently to make
the bristles reach the gumline or slightly beneath
the gumline.
Note: Keep the center of the brush in contact with
the teeth at all times.
Press the power on/off button to turn on the
3
SonicPro.
Gently keep the bristles placed on the teeth and in
4
the gumline. Brush your teeth with small back and
forth motion so the bristles reach between the
teeth. Continue this motion throughout your
brushing cycle.
Note: The bristles should slightly flare. It is not
recommended to scrub as you would with a
manual toothbrush.
To clean the inside surfaces of the front teeth, tilt
5
the brush handle semi-upright and make several
vertical overlapping brushing strokes on each
tooth.
Note: To make sure you brush evenly throughout
the mouth, divide your mouth into 4 sections using
the Quadpacer feature (see chapter ‘Features’).
Begin brushing in section 1 (outside upper teeth)
6
and brush for 30 seconds before you move to
section 2 (inside upper teeth). Continue brushing in
section 3 (outside lower teeth) and brush for 30
seconds before you move to section 4 (inside
lower teeth).
After you have completed the brushing cycle, you
7
can spend additional time brushing the chewing
surfaces of your teeth and areas where staining
occurs. You can also brush your tongue, with the
toothbrush turned on or off, as you prefer.
Your SonicPro toothbrush should be safe to use on
braces (brush heads wear out sooner when used
on braces) and dental restorations (fillings, crowns,
veneers) if they are properly adhered and not
compromised. If a problem occurs, please follow
up with a dental professional.
Note: When the SonicPro toothbrush is used in clinical
studies, the handle should be fully charged and the
EasyStart feature deactivated.
Charging and battery status
Attach the USB charging cord to a wall adapter,
1
plug the wall adapter into an electrical wall outlet.
Place the handle on the charger.
2
Note: The handle will emit 2 short beeps to confirm
that the handle is placed properly on the charger and
is charging.
Note: This SonicPro toothbrush is designed to provide
at least 28 brushing sessions, each session lasting 2
minutes (14 days if used twice per day). The battery
level indicator shows the battery status when you
complete the 2-minute brushing session, when you
pause the handle, or while it is charging.
