Important

Read these instructions for use carefully before using the appliance and

save them for future reference.

If you have any questions after reading this manual, please contact the

Philips Customer Care Centre in your country or visit our website

(www.philips.com).

Sonicare\has been carefully engineered for both effectiveness and

safety. However, basic safety precautions should always be followed

when using any electrical product, especially when children are present.

Danger

To reduce the risk of electrocution:

1) Do not place or store the charger where it can fall or be pulled into

a bathtub or washbasin.

2) Do not place or drop the charger into water or other liquid.

3) Do not reach for a charger that has fallen into water. Unplug

immediately.

4) Do not use while bathing.

5) Do not plug the charger into a socket that supplies a voltage for

which the charger is unsuitable. It has been designed for use with a

specific electrical voltage.

6) Refer to the bottom of the charger for voltage specification.Voltage

converters or plug adapters DO NOT guarantee voltage

compatibility. Never force the plug into a socket.

Warning

To reduce the risk of burns, electrocution, fire or injury:

1) Close supervision is necessary when this product is used by or on

children or the disabled.

2) Use this product only for its intended purpose as described in this

booklet. Do not use attachments not recommended by the

manufacturer. See voltage information above.

ENGLISH4

3) Never operate the charger if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is

not working properly, if it has been dropped or if it has been

dropped into water. For further instructions, contact your local

Philips Customer Care Centre.

4) Keep the cord away from heated surfaces.

Medical warnings

1) Avoid using a brush head with crushed or bent bristles. Damaged

bristles may break off while brushing. In order to prevent this,

replace the brush head with a new one every 6 months or sooner if

signs of wear appear.

2) Similar to starting with any new manual or electric oral hygiene

product, consult your dental professional before using this appliance

if you have had oral or gum surgery in the previous 2 months.

3) Contact your dental professional if excessive bleeding occurs after

using this product or if bleeding continues to occur after 1 week of

use.

4) If you have any questions concerning usage with a pacemaker or

other implanted device, consult your physician or the implanted

device manufacturer prior to use. Sonicare has been tested and is

compliant with safety standards for electromagnetic devices.

5)The Sonicare toothbrush is a personal care appliance and is not

intended for use on multiple patients in a dental office or institution.

6)This product is designed for cleaning teeth, gums and tongue only.

Do not use it for any other purpose.

Preparing for use

To attach the Sonicare brush head:

C1Align the front of the brush head with the front of the

toothbrush handle. Match the bars on the brush head with the

notches inside the top of the handle and slide the brush head

onto the handle.

C2Turn the brush head nut clockwise until it is firmly tightened.

If the brush head rattles during use, tighten the nut further.

ENGLISH 5

Charging the Sonicare\

Sonicare comes with the batteries completely discharged and should

be charged for at least 24 hours during the first few days of use.

C1To charge your Sonicare, place the handle in the charger with

the Sonicare logo facing forward. Make sure the bottom of the

handle sits back securely in the charger, making complete

contact.

C◗When the handle is placed incorrectly in the charger, the green

charge indicator LED will still light up, but charging will not take

place.

Handles of other Sonicare models do not fit in this charger and will

therefore not charge effectively. Do not attempt to force a handle into

this charger as this will cause damage.

It is recommended that you keep your Sonicare in the charger when

not in use to maintain a full battery charge. It takes at least 24 hours to

fully charge Sonicare's battery.

Using the appliance

Useful tips

◗You can use your favourite toothpaste with your Sonicare.

◗The brush head comes with a convenient travel cap. Remove the

travel cap from the brush head before switching on your Sonicare.

◗Place the brush head in your mouth before switching on your

Sonicare, and be sure to switch it off before removing it from

your mouth, otherwise toothpaste may splatter.

◗Rinse the brush head and bristles after each use.

◗Clean the brush head weekly, including under the nut.

◗A fully charged Sonicare will provide approximately 2 weeks of

typical use (2 minutes of brushing twice a day), making it easy to

travel without the charger.

Remember: voltage converters and plug adapters DO NOT guarantee

voltage compatibility. Always check for voltage compatibility.

Tips for specific oral care needs

◗Stain removal

In areas where staining occurs, a few seconds of additional brushing

time may be spent to assist with stain removal.

C◗Braces

The brush should be placed at a 45-degree angle between your

brackets and gumline.While applying light pressure, gently move the

bristles in a small circular motion so that the long bristles reach

ENGLISH6

between your teeth for 2 seconds.Then gently turn (roll) the brush

handle so the bristles clean the bracket and the rest of the tooth

before you move the bristles to the next tooth. Continue this until you

have brushed all of your teeth.

◗Dental restorations

Use the Sonicare on dental restorations (e.g. implants, caps, crowns,

bridges and fillings) as you would on your normal tooth surfaces to

reduce plaque build-up and improve gum health.Work the bristles

around all areas of the restoration for thorough cleaning.

◗Periodontal pockets

Your dental professional may have indicated that you have periodontal

pockets, deep pockets where plaque bacteria collect. If this is the case,

after brushing for a full 2 minutes, spend extra time gently brushing

these areas to improve your gum health.You may want to take

advantage of the Programmable Quadpacer\timer feature

(see section 'Programmable Quadpacer timer').

Proper brushing technique

Follow these simple steps to maximise your brushing experience:

C1Before switching the Sonicare on, place the bristles of the

brush head on your gumline at a 45-degree angle.

2Hold the handle with a light grip, switch the Sonicare on, and

glide the brush across your teeth.

3To maximise Sonicare's effectiveness apply only light pressure

and let the Sonicare toothbrush do the brushing for you.

Do not scrub.

4The angled brush head and slender neck help you reach the

back teeth and the tooth surfaces on the inside of the mouth.

Be sure to adjust your brushing to use the angle to your

advantage and keep as many bristles in contact with the teeth

as possible.

C5To make sure you brush evenly throughout the mouth, divide

your mouth into 4 sections: outside of upper teeth, inside of

upper teeth, outside of lower teeth and inside of lower teeth.

Begin brushing in section 1 (outside of upper teeth) and brush

for 30 seconds before moving to section 2 (inside of upper

teeth). Continue brushing the other two sections for 30

seconds until you have completed the 2-minute brushing cycle.

If activated, the Programmable Quadpacer\timer will beep

every 30 seconds to signal you to move to the next quadrant.

ENGLISH 7

6After having completed the 2-minute brushing cycle, the

Sonicare will switch off automatically. If you want, you can

switch the toothbrush back on for another brushing cycle and

spend additional time brushing the chewing surfaces of your

teeth.

7You may also brush your tongue, with the toothbrush switched

on or off, as you prefer.

8You may experience a slight tickling or tingling sensation after

using an electronic toothbrush such as the Sonicare for the

first time.As you become accustomed to brushing with the

Sonicare this sensation will diminish.

Special features

Features that simplify brushing:

Easy-start\brushing power ramp-up

◗All Sonicare models come with the Easy-start feature activated,

which helps you get used to brushing with the Sonicare.

◗The brushing power will gently increase to full power over the

first 14 brushings.

◗The Easy-start feature is active if you hear 2 beeps immediately

after switching on your Sonicare. Once the appliance has reached

optimal brushing power (after the 14th brushing), you will no

longer hear the double beep at the beginning of the brushing

cycle.

BNote: Each of the first 14 brushings must be at least 1 minute in length

to properly advance through the Easy-start ramp-up cycle.

To deativate or reactivate the Easy-start feature:

1Attach the brush head to the handle.

2Place the handle in the plugged-in charger.

3To deactivate Easy-start:

Press and hold the on/off button for 2 seconds.You will hear 1 beep to

indicate that the Easy-start feature has been deactivated.

4To reactivate Easy-start:

Press and hold the on/off button until you hear 2 beeps.This indicates

that the Easy-start feature is active again.

ENGLISH8

Using the Easy-start feature beyond the initial ramp-up period is not

recommended and reduces the effectiveness of the Sonicare in

removing plaque.

The Easy-start feature should be deactivated when the Sonicare is used

in clinical trials.

Smartimer\2-minute timer

◗All Sonicare models come with the Smartimer feature, which

automatically sets the brushing time to the 2 minutes

recommended by dental professionals.After these 2 minutes, your

Sonicare will automatically switch off. If you wish to brush for a

longer period, simply press the on/off button and another 2-minute

cycle will start.

◗If you wish to pause or stop brushing during your 2-minute cycle,

press the on/off button. If you press the on/off button again, the

Smartimer will resume where you left off.

BThe Smartimer will automatically reset to the beginning of a 2-minute

cycle if:

- brushing is paused for 30 seconds or longer;

- the handle is returned to the charger.

Quadpacer\30-second interval timer

C◗The Quadpacer feature ensures that you brush all sections of

your mouth evenly and thoroughly.At 30-second intervals (at 30,

60 and 90 seconds in case of a 2-minute brushing cycle), you will

hear a short beep and notice a brief pause in brushing action.This

is your signal to move to the next section of your mouth.

Programmable Quadpacer timer (specific models only)

The Programmable Quadpacer timer allows you to customise the

Quadpacer performance in 1 of 3 ways:

◗You may opt to keep the factory default setting of a 2-minute

brushing time with Programmable Quadpacer beeps activated.

◗You may choose to extend your brushing time to 2 1/2 minutes

by adding an additional 30-second interval.

◗You may choose a 2-minute brushing time, but with the

Quadpacer beeps deactivated.

To change the Programmable Quadpacer settings:

C1Place the handle in the charger that is plugged into a live

socket.

ENGLISH 9

2Press the Dual Speed Control button briefly and note which

LED lights up.

3Press and hold the Dual Speed Control button. Continue to

hold the button while the LEDs slowly cycle through the timing

interval setting options:

C◗Green LED in position 4: Programmable Quadpacer active

(factory default setting).

C◗Green LED in top (5th) position: 2 1/2 minute setting - the

Programmable Quadpacer active with an additional 30-second

timing interval.

C◗Yellow LED in bottom (1st) position: no timing intervals set - the

Quadpacer not active.

4To program the desired setting, release the button when the

LED corresponding to your choice lights up.

BNote: Selecting 2 1/2 minutes brushing time reduces the number of

brushings available from a charged battery.

Dual Speed Control (specific models only)

The Dual Speed Control feature allows you to choose between

2 speed settings: Normal speed for optimal brushing performance, or

Reduced speed when an even more gentle brushing action is desired.

Each time you switch your Sonicare on, it will begin brushing at the

Normal speed setting.To change the speed setting:

C1From Normal to Reduced speed: press the Dual Speed Control

button once during brushing.

2From Reduced to Normal speed: press the Dual Speed Control

button a second time during brushing.

A distinctive two-tone beep indicates that the speed setting has been

changed.

It is recommended that you brush at the Normal speed setting to

maintain optimal results.
