Using your toothbrush
Brushing technique
Wet brush head and apply any kind of toothpaste.
To avoid splashing, guide the brush head to your
teeth before switching on the appliance (picture 2,
page 5). When brushing your teeth with one of the
Oral-B oscillating-rotating brush heads guide
the brush head slowly from tooth to tooth, spending
a few seconds on each tooth surface (picture 3,
page 5).
When using the Oral-B «TriZone» brush head
place the toothbrush bristles against the teeth at
a slight angle towards the gumline. Apply light
pressure and start brushing in back and forth
motions, just like you would do with a manual
toothbrush (picture 4, page 5).
With any brush head start brushing the outsides,
then the insides and finally the chewing surfaces.
Brush all four quadrants of your mouth equally.
You may also consult your dentist or dental
hygienist about the right technique for you.
In the first days of using any 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/or gums,
Oral-B recommends using the «Sensitive» mode
(optional in combination with an Oral-B «Sensitive»
brush head).
Timer
You can choose between «Professional» or
«2-Minute» timer.
The «2-Minute» timer signals with a short stuttering
sound and a green light (b) that the dentist recom-
mended 2-minute brushing time has been reached.
The «Professional» timer signals with a short
stuttering sound and a green light at 30-seconds
intervals to move to the next quadrant of your
mouth (45 seconds intervals within «Deep Clean»
mode) (picture 5, page 5). A long stuttering sound
and a green light indicate the end of the profes-
sionally recommended 2-minute brushing time
(3-minute brushing time within «Deep Clean» mode.
The timer memorizes the elapsed brushing time,
even when the handle is briefly switched off during
brushing. The timer resets if pausing longer than
30 seconds or briefly pressing the mode button (d)
during pause.
Personalizing the timer
Your toothbrush comes with the «Professional»
timer activated. To change this, press and hold the
brushing mode button for 3 seconds until the
SmartGuide shows «:30» and «timer».

Briefly press the on/off button to switch to the
«2-Minute» timer. Push the mode button to confirm.
Pressure sensor
If you put excessive pressure on your teeth, the
red pressure sensor light (b) will light up (picture 5,
page 5). Additionally, when brushing in «Daily
Clean» or «Deep Clean» mode, the brushing mode
will change to the «Sensitive» mode. Periodically
check the operation of the pressure sensor by
pressing moderately on the brush head during use.
Note: In «Tongue Cleaning» mode the pressure
sensor is turned off.
Brushing modes (depending on model)
Your toothbrush offers different brushing modes:
«Daily Clean»
«Deep Clean»
«Sensitive»
«Whitening»
«Gum Care»
«Tongue Cleaning» – Tongue cleaning for
When operating the «Tongue Cleaning» mode, we
recommend using the «Sensitive» brush head.
You can brush your tongue either with or without
toothpaste.
Brush the whole area of your tongue systematically
in gentle movements. The recommended brushing
time is 20 seconds; the SmartGuide will indicate
completion with a smiley face.
Your toothbrush automatically starts in the «Daily
Clean» mode. To switch to the other modes, succes-
sively press the mode button (picture 6, page 5).
To return from any mode back to the «Daily Clean»
mode, press and hold the mode button. The brushing
mode is memorised even when the handle is briefly
switched off during brushing. When pausing longer
than 30 seconds or briefly pressing the mode button
(d) during pause the brushing mode resets to the
«Daily Clean» mode.
