Introduction
This unique,electric toothbrush removes plaque
better than a normal,manual toothbrush.It also
helps to protect your gums.When you exert too
much pressure while brushing,the brush head will
automatically flex back.Because of this clear signal
you will quickly adopt the right brushing force.
Clinical tests have shown that,thanks to this
system,brushing with the Philips Sensiflex results
in a better and safer brushing technique.
Important
◗The cord of the charging unit cannot be
replaced.If the cord is damaged,the charging
unit must be discarded.
◗Make sure the socket is live when you

may be cut off when the light is turned off.

Charging the appliance
1Charge the appliance for at least 16 hours
before using it for the first time.
C◗Make sure the appliance is switched off when
you start charging it.
◗You can put the toothbrush in the stand and
let it charge continuously.
However,when you first start using the appliance,
it is recommended that you use it until the
battery is empty.To do so,use the appliance in the
normal way without recharging it between the
brushing sessions.Recharge the appliance when
the motor almost stops running.Repeat this
procedure 3 times in a row.
To extend the lifetime of the battery,repeat this
procedure every 6 months.

Using the appliance
C1Mount the brush attachment onto the
toothbrush by inserting it into the bayonet
catch and turning it clockwise a quarter of
a turn.
This will make it impossible for the brush
attachment to become detached due to vibration.
2Put toothpaste on the brush.
C3Place the brush head in your mouth.
C4Press the on button and start brushing
your teeth.
◗For the best brushing method,minimal
brushing time and brushing functions of the
appliance,see the 'Brushing tips' section
below.
BrushingTips
Brushing
C1Place the brush head against the tooth in
such a way that it covers the surface of the
tooth as well as the gum line.
ENGLISH6
12

C2Hold the brush head in this position for a
few seconds and then move on to the next
tooth.
The round brush head removes plaque from the
teeth and beneath the gum line.
The individually moving ActiveTip cleans between
the teeth.
C3Guide the brush head carefully along the
teeth and molars.
◗Make sure you clean all surfaces of the teeth
(inside,outside and chewing surface) as well
as the gum line properly.A fixed brushing
pattern will prevent you from skipping certain
areas.
◗See also the brushing instructions on our
Internet site:www.homeandbody.philips.com.
Gum Protection
C1The Gum Protection system guarantees
that you will not exert too much pressure
on the teeth and gums.
C2If you exert too much pressure on the
toothbrush,you will feel and hear a click
when the brush head flexes backwards.As
soon as you reduce the pressure,the
brush head will return to its normal
position.This will protect your gums.
ENGLISH 7

This will probably happen a few times when you
first start using the brush.After some time you
will have discovered the optimal brushing
pressure and the brush head will flex backwards
less often.
Tip:If plaque is removed properly,the gums will
have a pink colour and will firmly surround the
teeth.Healthy gums do not bleed when you eat
or brush your teeth (see also the section
'Optimal dental hygiene').If,nevertheless,your
gums bleed slightly the first few times you use the
brush,this bleeding will generally stop after a few
days.If it does not,consult your dentist or dental
hygienist.
Minimum brushing time:2 minutes
In general,2 minutes will be enough to clean your
teeth properly.Naturally,you can also brush
longer than 2 minutes.
C◗A red pilot light will blink to indicate that
2 minutes have passed (types HX2645,
HX2545,HX2537P and HX2530 only).
Optimal dental hygiene
For optimal dental hygiene,it is recommended to
use dental floss and toothpicks in addition to the
electric toothbrush.
