Usage Instructions

Apply Toothpaste : Place a small amount of toothpaste on the bristles. Be careful not to use too much as it may cause spatter during brushing.
-
Initial Wetting : Before turning on the toothbrush, wet the brush head with water. Then, place it in your mouth and press the power button to begin.
-
Brushing Angle : Hold the toothbrush at a 45-degree angle to your gums. Slowly move the brush head across your teeth, allowing the bristles to sweep along the gum line and reach between teeth.
-
Timing Your Brushing : The toothbrush likely has a built-in 2-minute timer with 30-second intervals to prompt you to move to different quadrants of your mouth, ensuring a thorough cleaning.
-

Every one of these modes is intended to provide a personalized brushing experience to accommodate different demands and preferences related to dental health.
Care and Maintenance
- Frequent Cleaning: To get rid of toothpaste and dirt, properly rinse the brush head under running water after every usage. To avoid accumulation, periodically remove the brush head from the handle and rinse both individually.
- Deep Cleaning: To get rid of any built-up dirt, wash the brush head bristles and handle once a week with a mild soap. Make sure you give them a thorough rinse to remove any soap residue.
- Dry It Out: Using a fresh towel, pat dry the brush head and handle after shaking off any remaining water. Steer clear of abrasive products that might harm the surface.
- Brush Head Replacement: If the bristles start to fray, replace the brush heads as soon as every three months. Hygiene and efficacy must be maintained through regular replacement.
- Charging: Ascertain that the toothbrush is fully charged in accordance with the guidelines provided in the manual, but do not overcharge. If the toothbrush uses a lithium-ion battery, you can usually leave it on the charger because these batteries are made to shut off the charging process when they are fully charged.
- Storage: Until you need to use it again, try to keep your toothbrush upright and let it air dry. It should not be kept in a closed container where moisture can collect and promote the growth of bacteria.
- Travel Tip: To prevent damage to the toothbrush and to ensure hygiene when traveling, use the included travel case. Prior to putting the toothbrush in the case, make sure it is dry.
- Handle with Care: Although some electric toothbrushes are made to be waterproof, it’s still a good idea to keep them out of the water and not drop them.
- Watch the Battery: Depending on the model, it might be necessary to replace the toothbrush or the battery if your toothbrush exhibits any indications of reduced battery life or fails to hold a charge.
- Avoid Sharing: Even after cleaning your brush head, never give it to someone else for hygienic reasons.
Safety Precautions
- Electrical Safety : Do not use the toothbrush with wet hands while charging. Ensure that the charging cable and plug are dry before connecting them to a power source.
- Water Exposure : Although many electric toothbrushes are water-resistant, they should not be submerged in water or used while bathing.
- Appropriate Usage : Use the toothbrush only for its intended purpose—cleaning teeth and gums. It is not designed for any other use and should be used with care.
- Pressure Sensitivity : Do not apply excessive force when brushing. The toothbrush is designed to do the work for you, and too much pressure can harm your teeth and gums.
- Children’s Use : If the toothbrush is used by children, supervision is advised. Ensure that they understand how to use it properly and safely.
- Storage : Keep the toothbrush in a safe place where it cannot fall or be pulled down. After use, store it in an upright position to allow the brush head to air-dry.
- Cleaning and Maintenance : Regularly clean the toothbrush as recommended by the manufacturer to prevent mold and bacteria growth. Do not use harsh cleaners or solvents on the toothbrush.
- Damaged Components : Inspect the toothbrush for damage, such as a frayed charging cable, loose parts, or a cracked handle. Do not use if any damage is found; replace damaged parts before use.
- Medical Concerns : If you have special dental conditions or have had oral surgery, consult with a dentist before using an electric toothbrush to ensure it is safe for your situation.
- Avoid Chewing : Do not chew on the brush head or allow it to be used as a toy.
