To maintain the maximum capacity of the
rechargeable battery, unplug the charging unit and
fully discharge the handle with regular use at least
every 6 months.
Please note: If the charge indicator light is not
flashing immediately, continue charging. It will
appear in 10–15 minutes.
Brushing modes
Your toothbrush offers different brushing modes to
best meet your individual oral care needs.
«Daily Clean» Exceptional mouth cleaning
«Sensitive» Gentle, yet thorough cleaning for
sensitive areas
«Whitening» Exceptional polishing for occasional
or everyday use
How to switch between brushing modes:
When pressing the on/off button (5) your tooth-
brush automatically starts in the «Daily Clean»
mode.
To switch to the «Sensitive» and «Whitening»
mode, successively press the on/off button.
To turn off your toothbrush from the «Whitening»
mode, push the on/off button once more.
If you wish to turn off your toothbrush from either
the «Daily Clean» or «Sensitive»mode, push and
hold down the on/off button until the motor stops.
Brushing technique
Attach the brush head (7) to the toothbrush handle.
You can use any kind of toothpaste. To avoid
splashing, first guide the brush head to your teeth
before switching on the appliance. Guide the brush
head slowly from tooth to tooth, spending a few
seconds each tooth surface. Brush both the gums
and the teeth; first the outsides, then the insides and
finally the chewing surfaces. Do not press too hard
or scrub.
Pressure Sensor
Helping protect your teeth and gums from hard
brushing, your toothbrush has a pressure control
feature installed (see picture b, page 5). If too much
pressure is applied, the red pressure sensor light (6)
will light up reminding you to reduce pressure. In
addition you will also hear a different sound while
brushing. Periodically check the operation of the
pressure sensor by pressing lightly on the brush
head during use.
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
(see picture c, page 5).
The elapsed brushing time is memorised, even when
the handle is briefly switched off during brushing.
When pausing longer than 30 seconds the timer
resets to the initial starting point.
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 2 weeks,
please consult your dentist or dental hygienist. If you
have sensitive teeth and gums, Oral-B recommends
using the «Sensitive» mode.
Brush heads and accessories (depending on
model)
The Oral-B Professional Care offers you a variety of
brush heads and accessories, allowing you to select
those which best meet your oral care needs.
Replacement brush heads and accessories are
available in stores that sell Oral-B products.
Oral-B Precision Clean brush head
The Oral-B Precision Clean brush head
cups each tooth with a curved bristle trim
and reaches deep between teeth at the
same time.
Oral-B ProWhite brush head
The Oral-B ProWhite brush head features
a dentist-inspired polishing cup to
remove surface stains from coffee, tea

We do not recommend using the Oral-B ProWhite
brush head with braces. Children under 12 years old
should not use the Braun Oral-B ProWhite brush
head.
All brush heads feature blue INDICATOR

thorough brushing, twice a day for two minutes, the
light blue color will fade halfway approximately within
3 months, signaling it is time to change the brush
head.
