Brush heads
Your Philips Sonicare comes with a range of brush
heads which are designed to deliver superior
results for your oral care needs.
The number and type of brush heads might
change according to the toothbrush type you
purchased.
1Premium Plaque Defense brush head
2Premium Gum Care brush head
3Premium White brush head
4Tongue Care+ brush head (specific types only)
Smart brush head recognition
Premium Plaque Defense, Premium Gum Care,
Premium White and Tongue Care+ brush heads
are enabled with smart brush head recognition
technology.
A micro-chip inside the brush head communicates
with the toothbrush handle. So when you attach a
brush head, the handle automatically recognizes
10 English

the brush head and selects the recommended
mode and intensity level to optimize your brushing
performance.
Thanks to this feature the toothbrush also tracks
your usage and gives a personalized reminder
when you need to replace your brush head for the
best oral care results.
Brushing modes
Your power toothbrush is equipped with 5
different modes to accommodate all your oral care
needs (some models come with 4 brushing modes
only). The following modes are available:
Clean mode
Clean is a 2-minute mode, recommended to be
used with intensity level 3. It gives you a thorough
and complete clean and is recommended to be
used with the Premium Plaque Defense brush
head. In order to reach optimal results, follow the
instructions below.

and inner surfaces, before you move to the
upper front teeth (segment 2). Continue doing

in all 6 segments of the mouth. You will hear a
beep after each 20-second interval, to indicate
that you should move to the next segment.
White+ mode

motion used in this part of the mode will feel
and sound different from the first two minutes
of the mode.

DeepClean+ mode length depends on whether or
not the handle is connected to the app. In
connected mode DeepClean+ runs for two
minutes and provides BrushPacer feedback every
20 seconds. In non-connected mode DeepClean+
runs for three minutes and provides BrushPacer
feedback every 30 seconds. In order to reach

English

Based on the brush head you attach, the mode will
be selected automatically. If you want to adjust
the mode or intensity manually, you can do this by
using the mode/intensity button. Press the
mode/intensity button before brushing to change
the mode, and press it while brushing to adjust the
intensity level. Your selection will be remembered
next time you attached the same brush head. If
you want to go back to the initial recommended
settings for your brush head, manually change it to
the recommended setting described above.
Note: When the Philips Sonicare is used in clinical
studies, it must be used at high intensity in the
Clean mode, in White+ mode, in GumHealth mode,
or in unconnected DeepClean+ mode to achieve
the efficacy in plaque removal, stain removal, gum
health or superiority (respectively).
Intensity settings
Your power toothbrush gives you the option to
choose between 3 different intensity levels: low,
medium and high. Based on the brush head you
attach, the intensity will be selected automatically.
If you wish to change to a different intensity, you
can do so by pressing the mode/intensity button
while brushing. For optimal results it is
recommended to use the automatically selected
intensity. The intensity cannot be changed as long
as the handle is powered off or paused.

Using your Philips Sonicare
Brushing instructions
1Attach your desired brush head. Align the brush
head so the bristles point in the same direction
as the front of the handle.
2Wet the bristles.
3Apply a small amount of toothpaste on the
bristles.
4Place the toothbrush bristles against the teeth
at a slight angle (45 degrees), pressing firmly to
make the bristles reach the gumline or slightly
beneath the gumline. A change in vibration (and
a slight change in sound) and activation of the
light ring alert you when you apply too much
pressure while brushing.
Note: Keep the center of the brush in contact
with the teeth at all times.
15
English

5Press the power on/off button to switch on the
Philips Sonicare.
6Apply light pressure to maximize Philips
Sonicare's effectiveness. Brush your teeth with
a small back and forth motion so the bristles
reach between the teeth. Continue this motion
throughout the brushing cycle.
Note: The bristles should flare slightly. Do not
scrub.
7To clean the inside surfaces of the front teeth,
tilt the brush handle semi-upright and make
several vertical overlapping brushing strokes on
each tooth.
Your Philips Sonicare is safe to use on:
- Braces (brush heads wear out sooner when
used on braces).
- Dental restorations (fillings, crowns, veneers).

a. App
Your Philips Sonicare is Bluetooth enabled and
allows you to achieve superior oral health care
with the Philips Sonicare app.
16 English

Using the Philips Sonicare app will help you to
improve your oral health care habits. It gives you
real-time feedback while brushing, informs you if
you missed any spots when brushing, tracks your
brushing behavior over time and provides useful
tips and tricks for your healthiest mouth ever. In
order to fully benefit from your Philips Sonicare,
we advise you to follow these steps:
Connecting your toothbrush

device close during brushing.
b. Pressure sensor
Your Philips Sonicare is equipped with an
advanced sensor that measures the pressure you
apply while brushing. If you apply too much
pressure, the toothbrush will provide immediate
feedback to indicate that you need to reduce the
pressure. The feedback is given in two different
ways:
17
English

1You experience a change in vibration and
therefore brushing sensation.

light up purple.
If you receive a warning, reduce the pressure. The
light will turn off and the brushing sensation will

Activating or deactivating the pressure
sensor

in the plugged-in charger.
2Pressure sensor is enabled by holding the
mode/intensity button and by pressing the
power button twice while on a charger. The
handle will beep twice to confirm it is enabled.
3Pressure sensor is disabled by holding the
mode/intensity button and by pressing the
power button twice while on a charger. The
handle will beep once to confirm it is disabled.
c. Brush head replacement reminder
Your Philips Sonicare is equipped with a smart
feature that tracks the wear of your brush head.
Depending on the pressure you apply and the
amount of time used, the brush head replacement
reminder light reminds you to change your brush
head. It is important to change your brush head in
time in order to guarantee the best cleaning & care
of your teeth.
When the amber brush head replacement light
starts blinking, you should replace your brush
head.

replacement reminder

The BrushPacer is an interval timer that has a short
beep and pause to remind you to brush the
different sections of your mouth. Depending on
the brushing mode you have selected (see
'Brushing modes'), the BrushPacer beeps at
different intervals during the brushing cycle.
e. Easy-start
The Easy-start feature gently increases the power
over the first 14 brushings to help you get used to
the brushing with the Philips Sonicare. The Easy-

Easy-start ramp-up cycle.
Note: To achieve clinical efficacy, Easy-start needs
to be deactivated.
