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.
1 Premium Plaque Control brush head
2 Premium Gum Care brush head
3 Premium White brush head
4 Tongue Care+ brush head (specic types only)
Smart brush head recognition
Premium Plaque Control, 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
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.

1 Wet the micro bristles and brush your tongue
with a back and forth motion. Clean as far back
as comfortable.
2 Rinse your mouth and repeat the procedure
two more times.
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 ecacy in plaque removal, stain removal, gum
health or superiority (respectively).

Intensity settings
Your power toothbrush gives you the option to
choose between 3 dierent 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 dierent 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 o or paused.
Using your Philips Sonicare
Brushing instructions
1 Attach your desired brush head (see ‚Brush
heads‘). Align the brush head so the bristles
point in the same direction as the front of the
handle.
2 Wet the bristles.
3 Apply a small amount of toothpaste on the
bristles.

4 Place the toothbrush bristles against the teeth
at a slight angle (45 degrees), pressing rmly 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.
5 Press the power on/o button to switch on the
Philips Sonicare.
6 Apply light pressure to maximize Philips
Sonicare‘s eectiveness. 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 are slightly. Do not
scrub.
7 To 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 (llings, crowns, veneers).

a. App
Your Philips Sonicare is Bluetooth enabled and
allows you to achieve superior oral health care
with the Philips Sonicare app.
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 benet from your Philips Sonicare,
we advise you to follow these steps:
Connecting your toothbrush
1 Download the Philips Sonicare app from the
Apple App Store or Google Play Store.
2 Conrm Bluetooth is switched on on your
mobile device before you open the app. Check

5 Follow the Sonicare app instructions displayed
on your mobile device. The app automatically
connects with the toothbrush. If the toothbrush
does not connect, follow the troubleshooting
steps provided in the app.
Note: For optimal data capture, keep your mobile
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 dierent
ways:
1 You experience a change in vibration and
therefore brushing sensation.
2 The pressure warning light of the light ring will
light up purple.
If you receive a warning, reduce the pressure. The
light will turn o and the brushing sensation will
adjust to the original sensation.
Activating or deactivating the pressure
sensor
1 Place the handle, with a brush head attached,
in the plugged-in charger.
2 Pressure 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 conrm it is enabled.
3 Pressure 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 conrm 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.
Activating or deactivating the brush head
replacement reminder
1 Place the handle in the plugged-in charger.
2 Brush head replacement reminder is enabled
by holding the mode/intensity button and by
pressing the power button three times while
on the charger. The handle will beep twice to
conrm it is enabled.
3 Brush head replacement reminder is disabled
by holding the mode/intensity button and by
pressing the power button three times while
on the charger. The handle will beep once to
conrm it is disabled.
d. Brushpacer
The brushpacer is an interval timer that has a
short beep and pause to remind you to brush the
dierent sections of your mouth. Depending on the
brushing mode you have selected (see ‚Brushing
modes‘), the brushpacer beeps at dierent
intervals during the brushing cycle.

e. Easy-start
The Easy-start feature gently increases the power
over the rst 14 brushings to help you get used
to the brushing with the Philips Sonicare. The
Easy-start feature works in all modes other than
TongueCare+ mode. This Philips Sonicare model

Activating or deactivating the Easy-start
feature
1 Place the handle in the plugged-in charger.

intensity button and by pressing the power
button once while on the charger. The handle
will beep twice to conrm it is enabled.
3 Easy start is disabled by holding the mode/
intensity button and by pressing the power
button once while on the charger. The handle
will beep once to conrm it is disabled.
Note: Using the Easy-start feature beyond the
initial ramp-up period is not recommended and
reduces Philips Sonicare eectiveness in removing
plaque.
Note: Each of the rst 14 brushings must be at least
1 minute in length to properly move through the
Easy-start ramp-up cycle.
Note: To achieve clinical ecacy, Easy-start needs
to be deactivated.
