damage. A damaged or non-
functioning appliance shall no longer
be used. Take it to an Oral-B Braun
Service Centre.
• This product is not intended for use
by children under age three.
• If the product is dropped, the brush-
head should be replaced before the

• When the handle is fully charged,
the green charge indicator light
shines continuously. A full charge
takes at least 16 hours and enables
approximately two weeks of regular
brushing (twice a day, 2 minutes).
• The red charge indicator (d) light
starts blinking when the rechargeable
battery is low. Now it is time to
recharge your toothbrush.
• For everyday use, the toothbrush
handle can be stored on the charging
unit to maintain it at full power.
Overcharging is impossible.
• To maintain the maximum capacity of
the rechargeable battery, unplug the
charging unit and fully discharge the
handle by regular use at least every
6 months.
Specifications
Refer to the bottom of the charging unit
for voltage specifications.
Using your toothbrush
Attach one of the brushheads (1–3) to
the handle. They can be used with any
kind of toothpaste. To avoid splashing,
guide the brushhead to your teeth
before switching the appliance on.
Brushing modes
Your toothbrush offers different
brushing modes to best meet your
individual needs:
«Clean» – Exceptional mouth
cleaning.
«Sensitive» – Gentle, yet thorough
cleaning for sensitive
areas.
«Polish» – Exceptional polishing
and natural whitening
for occasional or
everyday use.

your toothbrush automatically starts
in the «Clean» mode.
• To shift from the «Clean» mode to the
«Sensitive» mode, push the on/off
button once more.

mode, pushing the on/off button
again will bring you from «Sensitive»
to «Polish» mode.

«Polish» mode, push the on/off
button once more.
• If you wish to turn your toothbrush off
in the «Clean» or «Sensitive» mode,

button until the motor stops.
Outstanding Plaque Removal
For clean teeth and strong and healthy
gums, Oral-B Professional Care
gently cleans in areas where plaque
bacteria can collect. It provides for an
outstanding plaque removal even in
hard-to-reach areas and is gentle on
teeth and gums.
Brushing technique:
• Guide the brushhead slowly from
tooth to 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,
first the outsides, then the insides,
finally the chewing surfaces.
• Do not press too hard or scrub,
simply let the brush do all the work.
Pressure Sensor
For optimal brushing results Oral-B
Professional Care has a pressure
control feature to help you brush gently.
This helps protect your gums from
excessive brushing and makes your
toothbrush easy to operate. If too much
pressure is applied, the oscillating
movement of the brushhead will

continue but the pulsation will stop. In
addition to feeling it, you can also hear
a different sound.
Professional Timer
A short stuttering sound at 30-second
intervals, which you can hear and
feel, reminds you to brush the four
quadrants of your mouth equally for
a thorough consistent clean.
2-Minute Timer
A long stuttering sound indicates when
the dentist recommended 2-minute
brushing time has been reached.
Both timers memorize the elapsed
brushing time, even when the handle is
briefly switched off during brushing.
Only when pausing longer than 30 sec.
the timer resets to the initial starting
point.
In the first days of using the tooth-
brush, your gums may bleed slightly. In
general, bleeding should stop after a
few days. Should it persist after two
weeks, please consult your dentist or
hygienist. If you have sensitive teeth
and gums, Oral-B recommends using
the «Sensitive» mode.
Individual brushheads
and accessories
The Oral-B Professional Care offers
you a variety of brushheads and
accessories, allowing you to select
those which best meet your individual
needs. They are all designed for daily
use:
1 Oral-B FlexiSoft brushhead
The Oral-B FlexiSoft brushhead
features outstanding oscillating-
rotating action to effectively clean your
teeth, clean along the gumline and in
hard-to-reach areas such as behind
teeth. The compact round brushhead
surrounds each tooth for a thorough
clean. The green FlexiSoft bristles

bend, enabling both gentle brushing
and deep reach of the blue Interdental
Tips between teeth. Apply the brushing
technique as described in the section
«Outstanding Plaque Removal».
2 Oral-B Extra Soft brushhead
(not with all models)
The Oral-B Extra Soft brushhead
provides thorough cleaning for
sensitive teeth and gums. It has an
extra soft bristle texture that is gentle
on teeth and gums. Apply the same
brushing technique as described in the
section «Outstanding Plaque Removal».
3 Professional White brushhead
(not with all models)
The Professional White brushhead is
specifically designed to polish and
naturally whiten your teeth by removing
stains that can come from coffee, tea
and tobacco. It features the oscillating-
rotating head action of the Oral-B
FlexiSoft brushhead to effectively clean
teeth, combined with the special
polishing cup for natural brightening.
Apply the same brushing technique as
described in the section «Outstanding
Plaque Removal». We do not
recommend using the Professional
White brushhead with braces.
Children under 12 should not use the
Professional White brushhead.
All three brushheads feature blue
INDICATOR bristles to help you monitor
brushhead replacement need. With
thorough brushing, twice a day for two
minutes, the blue color will fade
halfway approximately within 3 months,
signaling it is time to change the
brushhead.
4 Interspace brushhead
(not with all models)
The Interspace brushhead is designed
for cleaning between teeth as well as
around bridges, crowns and implants.
To use, position the brushhead at a
45 degree angle to the gumline. Slowly
guide the brushhead along the gumline,
pausing between teeth for excellent
results.
