Specifications

Handle voltage: 1.2 V
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.
•
The charge indicator (d) flashes
while the handle is being charged.
•
When the handle is fully charged,
the charge indicator lights
permanently. A full charge takes
at least 16 hours and provides an
operation time of approximately
45 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
This product can be used with
any leading brand of toothpaste.
To avoid splashing, guide the
brushhead to your teeth before
switching the appliance on.
Operating the switch
The toothbrush features two
speed options, the lower speed
being optimal for sensitive areas
in the mouth (A).
•
Press the switch to operate with
normal speed,
•
press a second time to operate
with reduced speed,
•
press a third time to switch the
unit off.
Removing plaque
Guide the brushhead slowly from
tooth to tooth. Hold the brushhead
in place for a few seconds before
moving on to the next tooth.
Brush the gums as well as the teeth,
first the outsides, then the insides,
finally the chewing surfaces. Do not
press too hard or scrub, simply let
the brush do all the work.

Professional timer
With a signal you can
hear and feel, the timer
invites you to brush
quadrant by quadrant.
After every 30 seconds,
it signals by a very short stutter that
it is time to move to the next
quadrant. After two minutes – which
is the recommended brushing time –
the timer signals by a longer stutter.
Pressure Sensor
For safety and optimum brushing
results, the toothbrush has
a pressure control system:
If too much pressure is applied,
the oscillating movement of the
brushhead will continue, but the
pulsation will stop. In addition to
feeling it, you can also hear the
difference.
During the first few days of using
the 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
hygienist.

INDICATOR bristles
The INDICATOR
monitor and improve your brushing
performance. With proper brushing,
twice a day for two minutes, the blue
colour on the INDICATOR
will disappear half-way down within
3-4 months, signaling it is time to
change the brushhead (B).
Replacement brushheads
Available at your dealer or Braun
Service Centres.
Cleaning
•
Rinse the brushhead thoroughly
under running water for several
seconds with the handle
switched on (C).
•
Switch off the appliance and
remove the brushhead from
the handle. Clean both parts
separately under running water,
then wipe them dry before you
reassemble the brush and put
the handle on the charging
unit (D).
•
From time to time, also clean the
charging unit with a damp cloth.
