Wet brush head and apply any kind of toothpaste. To avoid splashing, guide the brush head to your teeth before switching on the appliance (picture 2, page 5). 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 (picture 3, page 5)
When using the Oral-B «TriZone» brush head place the toothbrush bristles against the teeth at a slight angle towards the gumline. Apply light pressure and start brushing in back and forth motions, just like you would do with a manual toothbrush (picture 4, page 5).
With any brush head start brushing the outsides, then the insides and finally the chewing surfaces. Brush all four quadrants of your mouth equally. 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/or gums, Oral-B recommends using the «Sensitive» mode (optional in combination with an Oral-B «Sensitive» brush head).
You can choose between «Professional» or «2-Minute» timer.
The «2-Minute» timer signals with a short stuttering sound and a green light (b) that the dentist recommended 2-minute brushing time has been reached.
The «Professional» timer signals with a short stuttering sound and a green light at 30-seconds intervals to move to the next quadrant of your mouth (45 seconds intervals within «Deep Clean» mode) (picture 5, page 5). A long stuttering sound and a green light indicate the end of the professionally recommended 2-minute brushing time (3-minute brushing time within «Deep Clean» mode.
The timer memorizes the elapsed brushing time, even when the handle is briefly switched off during brushing. The timer resets if pausing longer than 30 seconds or briefly pressing the mode button (d) during pause
Personalizing the timer
Your toothbrush comes with the «Professional» timer activated. To change this, press and hold the brushing mode button for 3 seconds until the SmartGuide shows «:30» and «timer». Briefly press the on/off button to switch to the «2-Minute» timer. Push the mode button to confirm.
If you put excessive pressure on your teeth, the red pressure sensor light (b) will light up (picture 5, page 5). Additionally, when brushing in «Daily Clean»or «Deep Clean» mode, the brushing mode will change to the «Sensitive» mode. Periodically check the operation of the pressure sensor by pressing moderately on the brush head during use. Note: In «Tongue Cleaning» mode the pressure sensor is turned off.
Your toothbrush offers different brushing modes:
| «Daily Clean» | – Standard mode for daily mouth cleaning |
| «Deep Clean» | – Mouth cleaning with extended brushing time of 45 seconds per quadrant (3 minute total brushing time) |
| «Sensitive» | – Gentle, yet thorough cleaning for sensitive areas |
| «Whitening» | – Polishing for occasional or everyday use |
| «Gum Care» | – Gentle massage of gums |
| «Tongue Cleaning» | – Tongue cleaning for occasional or everyday use |
When operating the «Tongue Cleaning» mode, we recommend using the «Sensitive» brush head. You can brush your tongue either with or without toothpaste. Brush the whole area of your tongue systematically in gentle movements. The recommended brushing time is 20 seconds; the SmartGuide will indicate completion with a smiley face.
Your toothbrush automatically starts in the «Daily Clean» mode. To switch to the other modes, successively press the mode button (picture 6, page 5). To return from any mode back to the «Daily Clean» mode, press and hold the mode button. The brushing mode is memorised even when the handle is briefly switched off during brushing. When pausing longer than 30 seconds or briefly pressing the mode button (d) during pause the brushing mode resets to the «Daily Clean» mode
Download the Oral-B™ app for free from App Store(SM) or Google Play™. The Oral-B™ app gives you the opportunity to use your time more efficiently, chart your brushing progress and customize your toothbrush settings (for more benefits see the Oral-B™ app instructions).
Note: Your smart phone must support Bluetooth 4.0 (or higher) in order to connect to your toothbrush handle.
To avoid interference of display messages when using more than one Oral-B toothbrush with radio transmission and SmartGuide in the same household, you need to assign the handles to their respective SmartGuide. You can synchronize a maximum of 2 handles with one SmartGuide. To do so, push the «h/min» button in the battery compartment for at least 3 seconds. The SmartGuide shows «L---». Turn on your handle to start the synchronization process. It is finished when «L-1-» is displayed. Turn off the handle. To assign a second handle to the same SmartGuide turn on the other handle until «L-2-» is displayed. After having synchronized the second handle, «Full» will be displayed. Exit the synchronization mode by pressing the «h/min» or «set» button, otherwise it will end automatically after 30 seconds.
After brushing, rinse your brush head under running water with the handle switched on. Switch off and remove the brush head. Clean handle and brush head separately; wipe them dry before reassembling.Disassemble the charging unit before cleaning. Brush head compartment and protective cover are dishwasher-safe. Both basic charger and SmartGuide should be cleaned with a damp cloth only. The removable inner part of the travel case (m) is dishwasher-safe. The outer case should only be wiped clean with a damp cloth (picture 7, page 5). Make sure that travel case parts are completely dry before reassembling and toothbrush/brush heads are dry before storing in the travel case. Note: Clean stains on the travel case surface immediately. Store travel case in a clean and dry place.
Use the adhesive ring (l) with the wall mount (k) if you prefer to mount the SmartGuide on a wall, mirror or other surface. Make sure the chosen surface is clean and dry before adhering. Stick the adhesive ring on the even side of the wall mount and press it firmly to the wall. Wait 24h before sliding the SmartGuide holder (j) into the fixed wall mount. Place the SmartGuide into its holder (picture C, page 4). The adhesive ring will not work on dirt-repellent surfaces.
