Connecting and charging
Your toothbrush has a waterproof
handle, is electrically safe and
designed for use in the bathroom.
• Plug the charging unit (D) into an
electrical outlet and place the
handle (C) on there. For voltage
specifications refer to the bottom of
the charging unit. A full charge takes
16 hours and enables approximately
one week of regular brushing (twice
a day, 2 minutes) (1).
• For everyday use, the handle can be
stored on the plugged-in charging
unit to maintain the toothbrush at
full power; there is no risk of over-
charging. However for environ-
mental reasons, Oral-B recom-
mends to unplug the charging unit
until the next recharge is required.
Battery maintenance
To maintain the maximum capacity
of the rechargeable battery, unplug
the charging unit and discharge the
handle by regular use at least every
6 months.
Using the toothbrush
Wet brush head and apply toothpaste;
you can use any kind of toothpaste.
To avoid splashing, guide the brush
head to your teeth before switching
the appliance on (B) (2).
Start brushing the outsides, and then
the insides and finally the chewing
surfaces (3). Turn off the handle by
pressing the on/off switch.
Timer (depending on model)
An incorporated timer memorises
the elapsed brushing time. A short
stuttering sound indicates the end
of the professionally recommended
2-minute brushing time.

accessories

heads which are available in stores
