Preparing for use
Attaching the brush head
1Align the brush head so the bristles point in the same direction as
the front of the handle (Fig. 2).
2Firmly press the brush head down onto the metal shaft until it
stops.
Note: Philips Sonicare brush heads are imprinted with icons to easily
identify your brush head (Fig. 3).
Charging the appliance
1Plug the charger into an electrical outlet.
2Place the handle on the charger (Fig. 4).
- The battery level indicator flashes to indicate that the toothbrush
is charging. When the light stops flashing and turns solid green the
toothbrush is fully charged. (Fig. 5)
Note: It can take up to 48 hours to fully charge the battery, but the
Philips Sonicare may be used before it is fully charged.
Using the appliance
Brushing instructions
1Wet the bristles and apply a small amount of toothpaste.
2Place 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 (Fig. 6).
Note: Keep the center of the brush in contact with the teeth at all
times.
8English

3Press the power on/off and mode button to turn on the Philips
Sonicare.
4Gently keep the bristles placed on the teeth and in the gumline.
Brush your teeth with small back and forth motion so the bristles
reach between the teeth. Continue this motion throughout your
brushing cycle.
Note: The bristles should slightly flare. Do not scrub.
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 (Fig. 7).
Note: To make sure you brush evenly throughout the mouth,
divide your mouth into 4 sections using the Quadpacer feature
(see chapter ‘Features’).
6Begin brushing in section 1 (outside upper teeth) and brush for 30
seconds before you move to section 2 (inside upper teeth).
Continue brushing in section 3 (outside lower teeth) and brush for
30 seconds before you move to section 4 (inside lower teeth (Fig.
8)).
7After you have completed the brushing cycle, you can spend
additional time brushing the chewing surfaces of your teeth and
areas where staining occurs. (Fig. 9)
Your Philips Sonicare toothbrush is safe to use on:
- Braces (brush heads wear out sooner when used on braces)
Dental restorations (fillings, crowns, veneers)
Note: Ensure that braces or dental restorations are properly adhered
and not compromised. If not, braces or dental restorations may be
damaged when they come into contact with the brush head.
Note: When the Philips Sonicare toothbrush is used in clinical studies,
the handle should be fully charged and the Easy-start feature
deactivated.
Battery status (when handle is not on charger)
- A yellow battery level indicator indicates a low charge.
- A green battery level indicator indicates a high charge.
9
English

- The battery level indicator turns off when the battery is in between
a low and a high charge.
Note:When you hear 3 beeps and the yellow LED of the battery level
indicator flashes, this means the battery charge is below 10% and the
toothbrush should be recharged.
Note:To keep the battery fully charged at all times, you may keep the
Sonicare on the charger when not in use.
Features
Quadpacer
- The Quadpacer is an interval timer that has a short beep and
pause to remind you to brush the 4 sections of your mouth evenly
and thoroughly. (Fig. 10)
Smartimer
The Smartimer indicates that your brushing cycle is complete by
automatically turning off the toothbrush at the end of the brushing
cycle.
Dental professionals recommend brushing no less than 2 minutes
twice a day.
Note: If you press the power on/off button after you started the
brushing cycle, the toothbrush will pause. After a pause of 30
seconds, the Smartimer resets.
Easy-start
The Easy-start feature gently increases power over the first 14
brushings to help you get used to brushing with the Philips Sonicare
toothbrush. This Philips Sonicare toothbrush comes with the Easy-
start feature activated.
Activating or deactivating the Easy-start feature:
Place the handle in the plugged-in charger.
- To activate Easy-start:
Press and hold the power on/off button for 2 seconds. You hear 2
beeps and the battery level indicator lights up green to indicate
that the Easy-start feature has been activated.
10 English

- To deactivate Easy-start:
Press and hold the power on/off button for 2 seconds. You hear 1
beep and the battery level indicator lights up yellow to indicate
that the Easy-start feature has been deactivated.
Note: Each of the first 14 brushings must last at least 1 minute to move
through the Easy-start ramp-up cycle properly.
Note: Use of the Easy-start feature beyond the initial ramp-up period
is not recommended and reduces the effectiveness of the Philips
Sonicare toothbrush in removing plaque.
Attaching the TongueCare+ Tongue brush
1Remove the brush head.
2Align the TongueCare+ Tongue brush so the MicroBristles face the
front of the handle. (Fig. 11)
3Firmly click the TongueCare+ Tongue brush down on the metal
shaft until it stops.
Using your TongueCare+ Tongue brush
Cleaning your tongue
1Wet MicroBristles. (Fig. 12)
Note: Mouthwash can be used on the middle of the tongue before
using the TongueCare+ Tongue brush.
2Place TongueCare+ Tongue brush so that MicroBristles are
positioned against your tongue and apply light pressure.
3Turn power on, begin cleaning.
- Lightly rub the TongueCare+ Tongue brush front to back on the
tongue, going only as far back as is comfortable for you. (Fig. 13)
- Clean evenly over the entire tongue for 20 seconds.
4Rinse and repeat to ensure a total of 3 times.
Getting comfortable
Using a powered tongue cleaner for the first time?
11
English

Tingling
Your tongue cleaner is powered by Philips Sonicare technology, with
31,000 vibrations per minute to get your tongue squeaky clean. These
vibrations are safe for the tongue, but you may experience some
tingling as you adjust. This is a normal reaction and usually fades after
a week of use.
Gagging
Any form of tongue cleaning can elicit a gag reflex for new users. To
avoid triggering a gagging response, start slowly and only bring your
TongueCare+ Tongue brush as far back as is comfortable, working
your way deeper over time as you adjust.
Cleaning
You should clean your Philips Sonicare toothbrush regularly to
remove toothpaste and other residue. Failure to clean your Philips
Sonicare toothbrush may result in an unhygienic product and
damage to it may occur.
Warning: Do not clean brush heads, the handle or the charger in the
dishwasher.
Toothbrush handle
1Remove the brush head and rinse the metal shaft area with warm
water. Make sure you remove any residual toothpaste (Fig. 14).
Caution: Do not push on the rubber seal on the metal shaft with
sharp objects, as this may cause damage.
2Wipe the entire surface of the handle with a damp cloth.
Brush head
1Rinse the brush head and bristles after each use (Fig. 15).
2Remove the brush head from the handle and rinse the brush head
connection with warm water at least once a week. Rinse the travel
cap as often as needed.
Charger
1Unplug the charger before you clean it.
