The handles of other Sonicare models do not fit in this charger and will
therefore not charge effectively. Do not attempt to force a handle into
this charger, as this will cause damage.
Using the appliance
Useful tips
We advise you to use gel toothpastes to ensure optimal
performance.
Place the brush head in your mouth before switching the
appliance on and keep your mouth closed during brushing to
prevent splattering of toothpaste.
You may experience a slight tickling or tingling sensation when
using an electronic toothbrush such as the Sonicare for the first
time.As you become accustomed to brushing with the Sonicare,
this sensitivity will diminish.
A fully charged Sonicare allows you brush your teeth for 2
minutes twice a day for approximately 2 weeks without charging,
making it easy to travel without the charger.
Brushing technique
C
1
Before switching the Sonicare on, place the bristles of the
brush head on your gumline at a 45-degree angle.
2
Hold the handle with a light grip, switch the Sonicare on and
gently move the bristles in a small circular motion so that the
longer bristles reach between your teeth.After a few seconds,
pass the bristles to the next section. Continue this routine
throughout the 2-minute brushing cycle.
3
To maximise the effectiveness of the Sonicare toothbrush, use
light pressure and let the Sonicare do the brushing for you.
Do not scrub.

To make sure you brush evenly throughout the mouth, divide
your mouth into 4 sections: outside upper teeth, inside upper
teeth, outside lower teeth and inside lower teeth. Begin
brushing the first section (outside upper teeth) and brush for
30 seconds before moving to the next section (inside upper
teeth). Continue brushing the other two sections for 30
seconds each until you have completed the 2-minute brushing
cycle.

After the 2-minute brushing cycle, you can switch the Sonicare
briefly back on again to brush the chewing surfaces of your
teeth.
Press the on/off button to switch the Sonicare on or off as needed.
