The Braun Oral-B OxyJet™3D Center has been
developed together with leading dental professionals to
effectively remove plaque from all areas of your teeth and
to attack plaque bacteria.
The
Braun Oral-B 3D Plaque Remover adds a gentle
pulsating movement to its oscillation to create a deep-
cleaning 3D brushing action. The plaque remover should
be used twice a day for at least two minutes, the minimum
brushing time recommended by dental professionals.
The
Braun Oral-B OxyJet™ irrigator mixes air into water
in the form of micro-bubbles. These micro-bubbles in the
water stream attack plaque bacteria.
At the same time, it removes remaining food particles from
between your teeth and massages your gums. Always use
the irrigator after brushing your teeth.
Please read the use instructions carefully before first use.
Important
The plug should always be accessible.
Periodically check the cord for damage. Should this be
the case, take the appliance to a Braun Service Centre.
A damaged or non-functioning unit should no longer be
used.

Using the plaque remover
Connecting and charging
Plug the appliance into an electrical outlet. Place the
handle
3 on the charging base 1 , the charge indicator
will light up.
A full charge will take 16 hours and will provide
45 minutes operation time. For everyday use, the handle
can be stored on the charging base to maintain it at full
power. Overcharging is impossible.
Battery maintenance
To maintain the maximum capacity of the rechargeable
battery, the following procedure should be done every
6 months: Do not place the handle back onto the
charging base in order to discharge it by regular use.
Once discharged, recharge the handle on the charging
base.
Operating the switch
Press the switch 4 to operate the plaque remover, press
again to stop it.
The «deluxe»models OC 15 525 X and OC 15 545 X
additionally feature a reduced speed setting for sensitive
areas of the mouth:
Press the switch to operate with normal speed,
press a second time to operate with reduced speed,
press a third time to switch the handle off.
Removing plaque
The plaque remover can be used with any leading brand
of toothpaste. However, we do not recommend
toothpastes with whitening agents.
To avoid splashing, guide the brushhead to your teeth
before switching the handle on.
Guide the brushhead from tooth to tooth, following the
curve of the gum and the shape of each 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.
Do not press too hard nor scrub –simply let the brush do
all the work.
During the first few days of using the plaque remover,
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.

Pressure sensor
For safety and optimum brushing results, the plaque
remover has a pressure control system: If too much
pressure is applied, the oscillating movement of the
brushhead will continue, but the pulsation will stop.
There is a noticeable change in feeling and sound when
the pressure sensor is activated.
Memory timer
An incorporated timer memorises the elapsed brushing
time, even when the handle is briefly switched off (max.
30 seconds). After two minutes –which is the minimum
recommended brushing time –the timer signals by a short
stutter.
INDICATOR
®
brushhead
Dentists recommend that you replace any toothbrush
every 3 months, since worn bristles do not remove plaque
as effectively as new ones. Therefore, the brushhead is
provided with indicator bristles. With proper brushing
twice a day for two minutes using toothpaste, the colour
will disappear half-way down the bristles in a 3-month
period.
After use
Rinse the brushhead thoroughly under running water for
several seconds with the handle switched on. Switch off
the handle and take off the brushhead. Clean both parts
separately under running water, then wipe them dry.
Environmental notice
The plaque remover handle is provided with a nickel-
hydride rechargeable battery. To protect the environment,
do not dispose of the product in the household waste at
the end of its useful life. Open the handle as shown,
remove the battery and dispose of it at your retail store or
at appropriate collection sites according to national or
local regulations.
Caution: Opening the handle will definitely destroy it.

Using the OxyJet™ Irrigator
Before using for the first time, fill the water container and
allow the water to run through completely by holding
the irrigator handle over a washbasin.
1. Attach one of the irrigator jets to the handle until it
locks in place. Fill the water container with water and
add mouthwash, if desired.
2. Turn on the irrigator by pressing the blue on/off
switch. (When doing so, the sliding switch on the
handle should not be pushed up.)
3. Select the water pressure with the pressure control
dial (1 = gentle, 5 = strong). We recommend that you
start with setting 1, especially if your gums tend to
bleed or if children are using the irrigator.
4. Bend over the washbasin and guide the jet to your
teeth and gums. Slide the handle switch up to start
the water stream. Keep your mouth slightly open to
allow the water to run into the washbasin.
You can choose between two different jet functions
by sliding the jet switch down or up (before doing so,
turn off the water stream by pushing the sliding switch
down):
Rotating stream for general cleaning and gum
massage (jet switch in lower position)
The rotation of the water stream and its micro-bubbles
is designed for easy penetration below the gumline.
Mono stream: straight water stream for site-specific
cleaning ( jet switch in upper position)
Max. operating time: 15 minutes
Cooling off time: 2 hours

After use
Always empty the water container entirely.
Otherwise bacteria could collect in the remaining water, if
the unit is not used for some time. Should your dentist
have recommended use of a chlorhexidine solution with
your irrigator, allow some water to run through the irrigator
after use with chlorhexidine, to prevent any deposit
build-up.
Press the on/off switch to turn off the irrigator.
The irrigator will automatically turn off after 10 minutes if
you forget to turn it off manually. In this case, to turn it on
again, you have to press the on/off switch twice.
To take off the irrigator jet, press the jet release button.
The jets can be stored in the jet compartment.
Wipe the handle dry and place it back onto its base.
Cleaning
Regularly clean the housing with a damp cloth.
The water container, the brushhead compartment and the
jet compartment are removable and dishwasher-safe.
Subject to change without notice.
This product conforms to the EMC-Requirements
as laid down by the Council Directive 89/336/EEC
and to the Low Voltage Regulation (73/23 EEC).
