• Then the hour digit starts flashing. Press the
«h/min» button until the right hour appears
and confirm with the «set» button. Proceed
the same way to set both minute digits. If you
prefer not using this clock feature, the flashing
«12:00» will disappear automatically after 24h.
You can start your toothbrush by pressing the
on/off button (b). To avoid splashing, guide the
brush head to your teeth before switching the
appliance on.
Connecting and charging
Your toothbrush has a waterproof handle, is
electrically safe and is designed for use in the
bathroom.
To assemble the base station (h) as a charging
unit, detach the base plate (g) first (
1, page 3).
Place the charging ring into the base station
and attach the base plate as shown (
2 and 3,
page 3). Then insert the protective cover (i) on
the back of your base station (see diagram
4,
page 3).
• Plug the SmartPlug into an electrical outlet
and place the toothbrush handle (d) on the
charging unit. A battery symbol should appear
in the handle display (e). The battery symbol
will fill up while the handle is being charged.
Once the handle is fully charged, the battery
symbol is completely filled with four bars. A
full charge takes at least 12 hours to complete
and allows for approximately two weeks of
regular brushing (twice a day, 2 minutes).
Please note: If the battery symbol is not
displayed immediately, continue charging.
It will appear in 10 – 15 minutes.
• When the rechargeable battery is low, the
battery symbol with one remaining bar starts
flashing. Your toothbrush will slow down and
then stop. It is time to recharge your tooth-
brush. When the battery is fully discharged,
the empty frame of the battery symbol flashes.
It will then need a 15-minute charge before
you can use it for a 2-minute brushing.
• For everyday use, the toothbrush handle can
be stored on the charging unit to maintain it at
full power. There is no risk of overcharging the
battery.
• To maintain the maximum capacity of the
rechargeable battery, unplug the charging unit
and fully discharge the handle by regular use
at least every 6 months.
For electric specifications, see printing on the
SmartPlug.
Personalizing the timer
You can choose between the «Professional
Timer» or «2-Minute Timer» and a «Count Up
Timer» or «Count Down Timer» to meet your
specific needs.
The «2-Minute Timer» indicates by a long stut-
tering sound and a “smiley” on the SmartGuide
display unit that the dentist recommended
2-minute brushing time has been reached.
In addition, the «Professional Timer» helps you
brush all four quadrants of your mouth equally.
It signals with a short stuttering sound at
30-second intervals and the «quadrant circle»
on the SmartGuide display unit that it is time to
move to the next quadrant of your mouth.
