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.
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.
Note:
- A change in vibration from the handle alerts you when you apply
too much pressure (see 'Pressure sensor').

modifications and dental restorations (fillings, crowns, veneers)
- Do not use your power toothbrush in the shower.
