The Oral-B OxyJet
®
3D Center has been developed together
with leading dental professionals to effectively remove plaque
from all areas of your theeth and to attack plaque bacteria.
The
Oral-B 3D pulsating toothbrush adds a gentle pulsating
movement to its oscillation to create a deep-cleaning 3D
brushing action. The toothbrush should be used twice a day
for at least two minutes, the minimum brushing time
recommended by dental professionals.
The
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
beween 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 Center. A
damaged or non-functioning unit should no longer be used.

Using the 3D pulsating toothbrush
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 toothbrush.
Your toothbrush features 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 toothbrush can be used with any leading brand of
toothpaste.
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 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.

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. 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 color 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.
The environment
For environment reasons, your toothbrush uses a
«environmentally sound» nickel-hydride rechargeable battery.
The battery does not contain any poisonous heavy metals that
can damage the environment.
In the interest of recycling, please do not dispose of this
appliance in the household waste at the end of its useful life.
Instead dispose of it at an authorized Braun Service Center or
at an appropriate collection site.

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 irragtor 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 on/off switch.
(When doing so, the sliding switch on the handle
should not be in its upper position.)
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 to prevent
bacteria from collecting in the standing water. If your
dentist has recommended use of a chlorhexidine solution
with your irrigator, allow some water to run through the
irrigator after use 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 iffigator 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.
