Using the toothbrush
You can use any kind of toothpaste. To avoid splashing, guide the brush
head to your teeth before switching on the appliance. Guide the brush
head from tooth to tooth, spending a few seconds on each tooth surface.
Brush the gums as well as the teeth, first the outsides, then the insides and
finally the chewing surfaces. Do not press too hard or scrub (1).
Pressure Sensor
To promote optimal brushing your toothbrush has a pressure control
feature installed. If too much pressure is applied, the oscillating movement
of the brush head will continue but the pulsation will stop. In addition you
will also hear a different sound while brushing.
Professional Timer
A short stuttering sound at 30-second intervals reminds you to brush
equally all four quadrants of your mouth. A long stuttering sound indicates
the end of the professionally recommended 2-minute brushing time. The
elapsed brushing time is memorised when the handle is briefly switched
off during brushing. When pausing for longer than 30 seconds the timer
resets.
In the first days of using the toothbrush, your gums may bleed slightly. In
general, bleeding should stop after a few days. Should it persist after two
weeks, please consult your dentist or dental hygienist.
Cleaning
After use, rinse the brush head for several seconds under running water with
the handle switched on. Then switch off the handle and remove the brush
head. Rinse both parts separately under running water (3) and wipe them
dry. From time to time, also clean the charging unit with a damp cloth (4).
