Specifications
For voltage specifications please refer to the bottom of the appliance.
- Noise level: 68 dB (A)
Using your irrigator (A)
Before using the irrigator the first time, fill the water container (9) and allow the water to run through completely by holding the irrigator handle (8) over a washbasin.
- Attach one of the irrigator jets (2) to the handle until it locks into place (a). Fill the water container with lukewarm water. If you want to add mouthwash into the water, please make sure you fill the water container with lukewarm water first, then add the mouthwash (b).
- Turn on the irrigator by pressing the on/off switch (5) (c). The handle switch should be in the lower position = water stop.
- Select the water pressure with the pressure control dial (6) (1 = gentle, 5 = strong) (d). We recommend that you start with setting 1, especially if your gums tend to bleed or if children are using the irrigator.
- Bend over a washbasin and guide the jet to your teeth and gums. Slide the handle switch (7) up to start the water stream (e). Keep your mouth slightly open to allow the water to run into the washbasin.
You can choose between two different jet functions by sliding the jet switch (3) down or up (before doing so, turn off the water stream by sliding the handle switch down)
- Rotating stream for general cleaning and gum massage (jet switch in lower position): The rotation of the water stream and its micro-bubbles is designed for easy penetration and gentle gum massage (g).
- Mono stream (jet switch in upper position): The straight water stream is designed for targeted cleaning (h).
- Maximal operation time: 15 minutes
- Cooling off time: 2 hours
In general, we recommend replacing the irrigator jet every 3 months.
After use
Always empty the water container entirely. If your dentist has recommended the
use of mouthwash with your irrigator, allow some clean water to run through
the irrigator before you empty the container entirely to prevent any deposit
build-up. Keep the irrigator switched on until the water stops running through
the irrigator jet, to prevent bacteria from collecting in the standing water.
Turn off the irrigator by switching off the on/off switch once the water
container is empty. Longer operation of the irrigator without water may damage
the motor.
Press the on/off switch to turn off the irrigator. To take off the irrigator
jet, press the jet release button (4) (f). Always wipe the handle and the
irrigator jet dry; place the handle back onto its base and store the irrigator
jet in the jet compartment (1).
Cleaning recommendations
Regularly clean the housing with a damp cloth. The water container and the jet
compartment are removable and dishwasher-safe.
Using your toothbrush (B)
Connecting and charging
Your toothbrush has a waterproof handle, is electrically safe and designed for
use in the bathroom.
-
Plug the appliance into an electrical outlet and place the toothbrush handle (14) on the charging base (11) (i).
-
The green charge indicator light (13) flashes while the handle is being charged. Once it is fully charged, the light turns off. A full charge can take up to 22 hours and enables up to seven days of regular brushing (twice a day, 2 minutes).
Note: After deep discharge, the green light might not flash immediately; it can take up to 10–15 minutes. -
If the rechargeable battery is low the red low charge indicator light (12) is flashing for some seconds when turning your toothbrush on/off.
-
For everyday use, the toothbrush handle can be stored on the Charger base to maintain it at full power. Overcharging is impossible.
-
To maintain the maximum capacity of the rechargeable battery, unplug the charger base and fully discharge the handle with regular use at least every 6 months.
Brushing Techniques
Wet brush head and apply any kind of toothpaste. To avoid splashing, guide the brush head (17) to your teeth before switching on the appliance (j). When brushing your teeth with one of the Oral-B oscillating-rotating brush heads guide the brush head slowly from tooth to tooth, spending a few seconds on each tooth surface (n). With any brush head start brushing the outsides, then the insides and finally the chewing surfaces. Brush all four quadrants of your mouth equally. Do not press too hard, simply let the brush do all the work. You may also consult your dentist or dental hygienist about the right technique for you.
In the first days of using any electric toothbrush, your gums may bleed slightly. In general, bleeding should stop after a few days. Should it persist after 2 weeks, please consult your dentist or dental hygienist. If you have sensitive teeth and gums, Oral-B recommends using the «Sensitive» mode (depending on the model) (optional in combination with an Oral-B «Sensitive» brush head).
Brushing modes (depending on model)
- «Daily Clean» – Standard mode for daily mouth cleaning
- «Sensitive» – Gentle, yet thorough cleaning for sensitive areas
- «Whitening» – Exceptional polishing for occasional or everyday use
How to switch between modes:
Your toothbrush automatically starts in «Daily Clean» mode. To switch to other
modes, press the on/off button (15). If you wish to turn off your toothbrush
from «Daily Clean» mode, push and hold down the on/off button until the motor
stops.
Professional Timer
A short stuttering sound at 30-second intervals reminds you to brush all four
quadrants of your mouth equally (k). A long stuttering sound indicates the end
of the professionally recommended 2-minute brushing time. The elapsed brushing
time is memorised even when the handle is briefly switched off during
brushing. When pausing longer than 30 seconds the timer resets.
Pressure sensor
To help protect your teeth and gums from hard brushing, your toothbrush has a
pressure control feature installed (l). If too much pressure is applied, the
red pressure sensor light (16) will light up reminding you to reduce pressure.
In addition you will also hear a different sound while brushing. Periodically
check the operation of the pressure sensor by pressing lightly on the brush
head during use.
Brush heads
Oral-B offers you a variety of different brush heads that fit your Oral-B toothbrush handle. Our oscillating-rotating brush heads can be used for tooth- by-tooth precision cleaning.
-
Oral-B CrossAction brush head
Our most advanced brush head. Angled bristles for a precise clean. Lifts and powers away plaque. -
Oral-B FlossAction brush head
Features micropulse bristles that allow for outstanding plaque removal in the interdental areas. -
Oral-B 3D White brush head
Features a special polishing cup to naturally whiten your teeth. Please note that children under 12 years old should not use the Oral-B «3D White» brush head. -
Oral-B Sensitive brush head
Features an extra soft bristle structure that is gentle on teeth and gums.
Most Oral-B brush heads feature light blue INDICATOR® bristles to help you monitor brush head replacement needs. With thorough brushing, twice a day for two minutes, the blue color will fade halfway through approximately 3 months, indicating the need to exchange your brush head. If the bristles splay before the color recedes, you may exert too much pressure on teeth and gums. We do not recommend using the Oral-B «FlossAction» or Oral-B «3D White» brush head with braces. You may use the Oral-B «Ortho» brush head, specifically designed to clean around braces and wires.
Cleaning recommendations
After brushing, rinse your brush head carefully under running water for some
seconds with the handle switched on. Switch off the handle and remove the
brush head. Clean both parts separately under running water (m); then wipe
them dry before reassembling the toothbrush. Put the toothbrush handle back on
the charger base. The charger base should be cleaned with a damp cloth only.
