Connecting and charging
The toothbrush is electrically safe and can
be used in the bathroom without hesitation.
•
Plug the charging unit into an electrical
outlet. Place the handle on the charging
unit. Handle must be switched off.
•
A full charge takes 16 hours and will
provide an operation time of approximately
20 minutes.
•
For everyday use, the handle can be
stored on the plugged-in charging unit
to maintain the toothbrush at full power.
Overcharging is impossible.
Battery maintenance
To maintain the maximum capacity of the
rechargeable battery, you must discharge it at
least once every 6 months. To do this, unplug
the charging unit and allow the battery to run
down with normal use.
Using the toothbrush
The toothbrush can be used with any tooth-
paste.
•
To avoid splashing, guide the brushhead to
your teeth before switching the appliance
on.
•
Slowly guide the brushhead 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, simply
let the brush do all the work.
•
To thoroughly remove plaque, brush for
at least two minutes.
During 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 hygienist.
Dentists recommend that you replace any
toothbrush every 3 months. Therefore, the
brushhead is provided with INDICATOR
bristles (I.a). With proper brushing twice a
day for two minutes, the color will disappear
half-way down the bristles in a 3-month
period (I.b), provided you use toothpaste.
If the bristles splay before the color recedes
( I.c), you are exerting too much pressure
on teeth and gums.
Replacement brushheads
Available at retail stores or Braun Service
Centers.
Cleaning
After use, rinse the brushhead for several
seconds under running water with the handle
switched on (II ). Then switch off the handle
and take off the brushhead. Rinse both parts
separately under running water (III ) and wipe
them dry.
From time to time, also clean the charging
unit with a damp cloth (IV).
