Solution
Recharge your Sonicare overnight, ensuring that it is not plugged into
an electrical outlet controlled by a light switch. Make sure the brush
head is attached correctly.
You may experience a slight tickling/tingling sensation when using
Sonicare for the first time.As you become accustomed to brushing
with Sonicare this sensitivity will diminish.
Sonicare should produce a gentle hum during operation.Tightening
the brush head nut can eliminate excessive rattling. If rattling does not
stop, you may need to replace the brush head. Make sure that the
travel cap has been removed.
Chattering of the plastic backplate may occur occasionally.This is
harmless and can be avoided by keeping the brush head properly
oriented, with the bristles angled toward the teeth as instructed, at an
angle of 30 to 40 degrees.
The handle may need recharging.
The Easy-start feature may be on and needs to be shut off (see
chapter "Using the appliance")
