Connecting and charging
The appliance 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 approx. 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, unplug the charging unit
and discharge the handle by regular use at
least every 6 months.
Using the toothbrush
The toothbrush can be used with any leading
brand of toothpaste.
•
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.
Timer
(D 9525, D 9511 models only)
An incorporated timer memorises
the elapsed brushing time. After
two minutes the timer signals by
a short stutter.
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 colour will disappear half-
way down the bristles in a 3-month period,
provided you use toothpaste (I.b). If the
bristles splay before the colour recedes (I.c),
you are exerting too much pressure on teeth
and gums.
Replacement brushheads
Available at your retailer or Oral-B Braun
Service Centres.
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).
Subject to change without notice.
