stops.
Note: Philips Sonicare brush heads are imprinted with icons to easily
identify your brush head (Fig. 3).
Charging the appliance

Using the appliance
Brushing instructions
1Press the brush head onto the handle aligning the brush head. The
bristles will face the front of the handle. (Fig. 2)
2Rinse your mouth with water and vigorously swish away any
particles.
3Wet the bristles and apply a small amount of toothpaste.
4Place the toothbrush bristles against the teeth at a slight angle (45
degrees), pressing firmly to make the bristles reach the gumline or
slightly beneath the gumline. (Fig. 6)
8English
Keep the center of the brush in contact with the teeth at all times.
5Press the power on/off and mode button to turn on the Philips
Sonicare. (Fig. 7)
6Apply light pressure to maximize Philips Sonicare's effectiveness.
Brush your teeth with small back and forth motion so the bristles
reach between the teeth. (Fig. 8)
Note: The bristles should slightly flare. Do not scrub.
7While brushing, position the toothbrush bristles above and below
the wires and brackets. Use a circular motion to insure that the
inside of the brackets is thoroughly cleaned. (Fig. 9)
8To clean the inside surfaces of the front teeth, tilt the brush handle
semi-upright and make several vertical overlapping brushing
strokes on each tooth. (Fig. 10)
9To make sure you brush evenly throughout the mouth, divide the
mouth into 4 sections using the Quadpacer feature. The
quadpacer feature beeps after 30 seconds. (Fig. 11)
10 Brush for the full 2 minutes following the Quadpacer (Fig. 12). After
2 minutes, the toothbrush will automatically shut off.
11 After you have completed the brushing cycle, you can spend
additional time brushing the chewing surfaces of your teeth and
areas where staining occurs. (Fig. 13)
Your Philips Sonicare toothbrush is safe to use on:
- Braces (brush heads wear out sooner when used on braces)
- Dental restorations (fillings, crowns, veneers)
Note: Ensure that braces or dental restorations are properly adhered
and not compromised. If not, braces or dental restorations may be
damaged when they come into contact with the brush head.
Note: When the Philips Sonicare toothbrush is used in clinical studies,
the handle should be fully charged and the Easy-start feature
deactivated; brushing instructions will focus 2 minute brushing on
facial (outer) and lingual (inner) surfaces only. Extra time may be
added on to brush the chewing surfaces.
Battery status (when handle is not on charger)
- A yellow battery level indicator indicates a low charge.
9
English
- A green battery level indicator indicates a high charge.
- The battery level indicator turns off when the battery is in between
a low and a high charge.
Note:When you hear 3 beeps and the yellow LED of the battery level
indicator flashes, this means the battery charge is below 10% and the
toothbrush should be recharged.
Note:To keep the battery fully charged at all times, you may keep the
Sonicare on the charger when not in use.
Features
Quadpacer
- The Quadpacer is an interval timer that has a short beep and
pause to remind you to brush the 4 sections of your mouth evenly
and thoroughly. (Fig. 14)
Smartimer
The Smartimer indicates that your brushing cycle is complete by
automatically turning off the toothbrush at the end of the brushing
cycle.
Dental professionals recommend brushing no less than 2 minutes
twice a day.
Note: If you press the power on/off button after you started the
brushing cycle, the toothbrush will pause. After a pause of 30
seconds, the Smartimer resets.
Easy-start
The Easy-start feature gently increases power over the first 14
brushings to help you get used to brushing with the Philips Sonicare
toothbrush. This Philips Sonicare toothbrush comes with the Easy-
start feature activated.
Activating or deactivating the Easy-start feature:
Place the handle in the plugged-in charger.
- To activate Easy-start:
Press and hold the power on/off button for 2 seconds. You hear 2
beeps and the battery level indicator lights up green to indicate
that the Easy-start feature has been activated.
