stops.

the handle.

degrees), pressing firmly to make the bristles reach the gumline or
slightly beneath the gumline. (Fig. 6) A change in vibration (and a
slight change in sound) alerts you when you apply too much
pressure while brushing.

mouth into 4 sections using the Quadpacer feature. (Fig. 10) The

10 Brush for the full 2 minutes following the Quadpacer. (Fig. 11) After
2 minutes, the toothbrush will automatically shut off.

brush for an additional minute so you can gently stimulate and
massage your gums.

additional time brushing the chewing surfaces of your teeth and
areas where staining occurs. (Fig. 12)
