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.
A full charge takes approx.12 hours and
will provide an operation time of approx.
30 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. However,
we do not recommend toothpastes with
whitening agents.
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.
Memor
y timer
An incorporated timer memorises the
elapsed brushing time, even when the
handle is briefly (max. 30 sec) switched off.
After two minutes, the timer signals by a
short stutter.
Pr
essure Sensor
If you apply too much pressure, the
oscillating movement will continue, but the
pulsation will stop. There is a noticeable
change in feeling and sound when the
Pressure Sensor is activated.
During the first days of using the appliance,
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.
The INDICATOR
®
bristles help you monitor
and improve your brushing performance.
With proper brushing, twice a day for two
minutes, the colour on the INDICATOR
®
bristles will disappear half-way down within
3 months, signaling it is time to change the
brushhead.
Replacement brushheads
Available at your retailer or 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).
