Using your Philips Sonicare
Brushing instructions
1Push the brush head firmly onto the handle. Wet the bristles
and apply toothpaste.
Note: It is normal to see a slight gap between the brush head
and the handle. This allows the brush head to vibrate
properly.
2Place the toothbrush bristles against the teeth at a slight
angle (45 degrees), apply light pressure to make the bristles
reach the gumline or slightly beneath the gumline.
Note: Keep the center of the brush head in contact with the
teeth at all times.
12 English

3Press the power on/off button to turn on the Philips
Sonicare.

4Apply light pressure to maximize Philips Sonicare’s
effectiveness and let the Philips Sonicare toothbrush do the
brushing for you. Gently move the brush head slowly across
the teeth in a small back and forth motion so the longer
bristles reach between your teeth. Continue this motion
throughout the brushing cycle.
Note: Different modes are available (see 'Brushing modes').
5To clean the inside surfaces of the front teeth, tilt the brush
handle semi-upright and make several vertical overlapping
brushing strokes on each tooth.
