6 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.
Note: The bristles should slightly flare. Do not
scrub.
7 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.
Note: A change in vibration (and a slight change
in sound) alerts you when you apply too much
pressure while brushing.
8 To make sure you brush evenly throughout the
mouth, divide the mouth into 4 sections using
the Quadpacer feature. The Quadpacer feature
beeps every 30 seconds over 2 minutes.
9 Brush for the full 2 minutes following the
Quadpacer.
In Clean mode, after 2 minutes the handle
will automatically shut off.
In White mode, an additional 30 seconds is
provided for you to 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.
