My Philips Sonicare Toothbrush vibration is
less powerful than before
Easy-start feature is activated
Some models come with the Easy-start feature activated. The Easy-start feature enables you to
increase the vibrations over time to get used to electric brushing. Disable the Easy-start feature
to increase the vibrations. You can find detailed instructions in the user manual that came with
your Philips Sonicare Toothbrush to deactivate the Easy-start feature.
Battery is almost empty
The vibrations of your Philips Sonicare Toothbrush weaken as the battery runs out. Fully charge
your toothbrush to increase vibrations. It can take up to 24 hours to fully charge your Philips
Sonicare Toothbrush. Be sure to use the original charger that came with your toothbrush. Some
Philips Sonicare Toothbrushes come with different types of chargers. They are not
interchangeable.
If you have a toothbrush with replaceable batteries, (no charger), it's time to replace the
batteries.
Worn out brush head
Older brush heads can seem less effective or powerful while brushing. We recommend you to
replace your brush head after 3 months of use.
My Philips Sonicare toothbrush vibration is too powerful
If you find that your Philips Sonicare Toothbrush vibration is too powerful, you can adjust the
intensity settings. Below you will find tips and more information on how you can adjust it.
First time usage
If you are using your Sonicare toothbrush for the first time, it is normal to feel more vibration
than when using a non-electric toothbrush.
We advise you to activate the EasyStart setting, which is a feature that gently increases the
power over the first 14 brushing sessions to help you get used to electric brushing.
To activate the EasyStart feature, see the user manual for step-by-step instructions.
Adjust the intensity setting
Your Philips Sonicare toothbrush gives you the option to choose between 3 different vibration
intensity levels: low, medium and high. To adjust the settings, simply press the mode/intensity
button while brushing.
1 bar = low intensity
