ASSEMBLING YOUR BRUSH
1. Insert brush head on top of the handle with bristles
facing forward (see Figure 2).
2. With moderate pressure, push brush head down until
bottom of the brush head stops at the top of the
handle (see Figure 2).
3. If the brush head does not push down, it may not
be facing forward and centered on the handle shaft.
Repeat Step 1 above.
PRESSURE SENSOR FOR PROTECTION FROM BRUSHING TOO HARD
1. To help protect teeth and gums from brushing too hard, a pressure sensor feature
has been built into the power toothbrush.
2. If too much pressure is being applied during brushing, the pressure sensor warning
light (See Figure 1-4) will turn blue and remain flashing as long as the excessive
pressure continues to be applied. This is a reminder to reduce pressure while brus-
hing. When you reduce pressure, the blue light will go off automatically.
2-MINUTE TIMER WITH 30-SECOND QUADRANT SIGNALS
1. Dental professionals recommend brushing the whole mouth for at least two minutes
or 30 seconds for each of the four quadrants of your mouth. A quadrant includes
all tooth surfaces from the front center of the mouth to the last tooth in the back.
There are four quadrants, left and right, bottom and top.
2. At the end of 30, 60 and 90 seconds, there will be 2 short pulses. Those pulses
signal that it is time to switch to a new quadrant. At the end of 2 minutes, there will
be 4 short pulses. The brush will continue to run after 2 minutes with pulses at 30
second intervals.
HOW TO BRUSH WITH GUM® POWERCARE™ TOOTHBRUSH
1. Apply toothpaste in a pea sized bead on the surface of the bristles.
2. Insert the toothbrush in your mouth and position the brush head on a back tooth.
Press On/Off/Mode button. (See Figure 1-3) Brush in the Daily Mode or press the
On/Off/Mode button again to switch to Sensitive Mode
3. For an optimal cleaning gently brush along the gumline, tooth by tooth, on both
outer and inner surfaces. Then clean the chewing surface using horizontal move-
ments.
4. Do not press too hard while brushing. At the end of each 30 -second interval,
switch to another quadrant and repeat as indicated in Step 3, until the 2-minute
recommended brushing time has been reached.
Note: Slight bleeding may occur during the first few days of use. If bleeding persists
for more than two weeks, contact your dental professional.
2 BRUSHING MODES
1. Daily – For a deep and gentle everyday cleaning.
2. Sensitive– Extra gentle, for those who have sensitive teeth or tender gums.
HOW TO CHANGE BRUSHING MODES
1. When the brush is turned on, (See Figure 1-3), it will automatically start in the Daily
Mode. The top Mode Indicator Light (See Figure 1–5) will light up green.
2. To switch to Sensitive Mode, press On/Off /Mode button a second time. The bottom
Mode Indicator Light (See Figure 1-5) will then light up green.
3. Press On/Off/Mode Button again to turn toothbrush off or twice to return to the
Daily Mode.
WHEN TO REPLACE THE BRUSH HEAD
The brush head should be replaced every 3 months as recommended by dental profes-
sionals or earlier if it is showing visible bristle wear. A worn brush head will not provide
effective teeth cleaning.
HOW TO REPLACE THE TOOTHBRUSH HEAD
1. Grip handle in one hand and brush head in the other hand.
2. Pull brush head upwards off the handle (See Figure 2).
3. Discard used brush head and insert new brush head on the handle.
