• If the battery is running low, the charge indicator
light (12) flashes red for a few seconds when
turning your toothbrush on/off and the motor is
reducing its speed. Once the battery is empty, the
motor will stop; it will need at least a 30-minute
charge for one usage.
• You can always store the handle on the plugged-in
charging unit; a battery overcharge is prevented by
device.
Note: Store handle at room temperature for
optimal battery maintenance.
Caution: Do not expose handle to temperatures
higher than 122°F (50°C). Recommended ambient
temperature for charging is 41°F (5°C) to 95°F (35°C).
Brushing technique
• Wet brush head and apply any kind of toothpaste.
To avoid splashing, guide the brush head to your
teeth before switching on the handle.
• When brushing your teeth with one of the Oral-B
oscillating-rotating brush heads, guide the
brush head slowly from tooth to tooth, spending a
few seconds on each tooth surface.
• With any brush head start brushing the outsides,
then the insides and finally the chewing surfaces.
Brush all four quadrants of your mouth equally
(B3). You may also consult your dentist or dental
hygienist about the right technique for you.
In the first days of using any electric 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/or gums,
Oral-B recommends using the «Sensitive» mode
(optional in combination with an Oral-B «Gum Care»
brush head).
Professional Timer
A short stuttering sound at 30-second intervals
reminds you to brush all four quadrants of your
mouth equally. A long stuttering sound indicates the
end of the professionally recommended 2-minute
brushing time. If the toothbrush is turned off during
brushing, the elapsed brushing time will be
memorized for 30 seconds. When pausing longer
than 30 seconds the timer resets.
Pressure Control
If too much pressure is applied, the pressure control
light (15) will light up in red, notifying you to reduce
pressure. In addition the pulsation of the brush head
will stop and the oscillation movement of the brush
head will be reduced (during «Daily Clean», and
«Sensitive» mode). Periodically check the operation
of the pressure control by pressing moderately on
the brush head during use.
Brushing modes (depending on model):
«Daily Clean» – Standard mode for daily cleaning
«Sensitive» – Gentle, yet thorough cleaning
for sensitive areas
«Whitening» – Exceptional polishing for
occasional or everyday use
«Gum Care» – Gentle massage of gums
How to switch between modes:
Your toothbrush automatically starts in the «Daily
Clean» or «Sensitive» mode (depending on model
purchased). To switch to other modes, successively
press the on/off button. Switch off the toothbrush by
holding the on/off button until the motor stops.
Brush heads
Oral-B offers you a variety of different Oral-B brush
heads that fit your Oral-B toothbrush handle.
Oral-B CrossAction brush head
Our most advanced brush head. Angled
bristles for a precise clean. Lifts and
powers away plaque.
Oral-B Gum Care brush head
Features a combination of regular bristles
to clean teeth surfaces and ultrathin
bristles for a gentle brushing experience
along the gumline.
Most Oral-B brush heads feature INDICATOR®
bristles to help you monitor brush head replacement.
With thorough brushing, twice a day for two
minutes, the color will fade halfway approximately
within 3 months, indicating the need to exchange
your brush head. If the bristles splay before the color
recedes, you may exert too much pressure on teeth
and gums.
We do not recommend using the Oral-B «FlossAction»
or Oral-B «3D White» brush head with braces. You
may use the Oral-B «Ortho» brush head, specifically
designed to clean around braces and wires.
Cleaning recommendations
After brushing, rinse your brush head under running
water with the handle switched on. Switch off and
remove the brush head. Rinse both parts separately
under running water then wipe them dry before
reassembling (B7).
Unplug the appliance before cleaning. Use a damp
cloth only for cleaning the appliance and leave the
lid open to air dry (A9).
