Operation
NOTE
►
Due to the unaccustomed effect of the toothbrush, there
may be some initial gum bleeding. This is normal. If this
continues for more than two weeks, you should consult
your dentist.
Remove the battery compartment cover 4 from the hand
■
element 3 with a slight tilting movement and insert the
batteries according to the polarity diagram in the battery
compartment. Close the cover of the battery compart-
ment 4 again.
Fit a brush head 1 onto the hand element 3.
■
■
Moisten the brush under flowing water.
■
Add a little toothpaste onto the moist brush and guide the
brush into your mouth.
■
Switch on the toothbrush by pressing the On/Off button
and brush your teeth on all sides. Divide your mouth into
four parts (jaw quadrants): upper right, upper left, lower
right and lower left (see fig. A). Start with any quadrant.
■
Every 30 seconds, the toothbrush stops briefly twice to
signal that you should start cleaning the next quadrant.
■
After two minutes, the toothbrush pauses briefly 4 times.
This lets you know that you have cleaned all four quadrants
and complied with the dental recommendation of two minutes
cleaning.
Switch off the toothbrush and rinse the brush head 1
thoroughly under running water.
To protect the brush head 1, you can attach the protective
■
cap 5.
NOTE
►
When the toothbrush's movements become noticeably weaker,
the batteries must be replaced. Open the battery compartment,
remove the empty batteries and insert new batteries. Ensure the
correct polarity and close the battery compartment.
Cleaning and care
To clean the drive shaft and the hand element 3, allow a
■
little water to flow over them. To do this, hold the hand ele-
ment 3 so that the drive shaft is pointing downwards. Make
sure that no water gets into the battery compartment.
After use, clean the brush head 1 thoroughly under running
■
water.
You should fit a new brush head 1 after about 3 months, or
■
when the bristles start to bend outwards.
NOTE
You can order replacement brush heads at any time (see
section "Ordering replacement parts").
You can also use any of the Oral-B* and Nevadent brush
heads currently available on the market.
