Getting started
Installing or replacing batteries

1

Remove the battery compartment cap from

the bottom of the handle by pulling on the

grips (Fig. 2).

2

Insert two AA 1.5 volt batteries into the

handle. Make sure the + and - poles of the

batteries match the indication on the inside of

the handle (Fig. 3).

3

Firmly push the battery compartment cap

back onto the handle (Fig. 4).
Attaching the brush head

1

Align the front of the brush head with the

front of the toothbrush handle.

2

Push the brush head onto the shaft. (Fig. 5)

User ID sticker
If you have multiple Sonicare battery

toothbrushes in your home, you can attach the

white or silver sticker to the battery cap. This

helps you identify your handle. (Fig. 6)
Using your Sonicare

1

Wet the bristles and apply a small amount of

toothpaste.

2

Place the toothbrush bristles against the teeth

at a slight angle towards the gumline (Fig. 7).

3

Hold the handle with a light grip and turn on

the Sonicare. Gently move the brush head

slowly across the teeth in a small back and

forth motion so the longer bristles reach

between your teeth. Continue this motion

throughout your 2-minute brushing cycle.

4

To maximize effectiveness, apply only light

pressure and let the toothbrush do the

brushing for you. Do not scrub.

5

To make sure you brush evenly throughout

the mouth, divide your mouth into 4 sections:

outside top, inside top, outside bottom

and inside bottom teeth. Begin brushing in

section 1 (outside top teeth) and brush for

30 seconds before moving to section 2 (inside

top teeth). Continue brushing in section 3

(outside bottom teeth) and brush for 30

seconds before moving to section 4 (inside

bottom teeth) for a total brushing time of 2

minutes (Fig. 8)

6

After you have completed the 2-minute

brushing cycle, you can spend additional

time brushing the chewing surfaces of your

teeth and areas where staining occurs.

You may also brush your tongue, with

the toothbrush turned on or off, as you

prefer (Fig. 9).

Your Sonicare is safe to use on:

Braces (brush heads wear out sooner when

used on braces)

Dental restorations (fillings, crowns, veneers)
Features
Smartimer 2-minute timer
After 2 minutes, the Smartimer automatically

turns off your toothbrush.

To pause or stop brushing during your 2-

minute cycle, press the power button. Press

the power button within 30 seconds and the

Smartimer picks up where you left off.
Battery indicator (select models)

The battery indicator shows the amount of power

left in the batteries.

Solid green light indicates there are at least 16

two-minute brushings available (Fig. 10).

Flashing green light indicates there are less than

16 brushings available.

toothbrush

Three beeps at the end of a two-minute

brushing indicate that there are less than 4

two-minute brushings available.

Note: The number of brushings you get from new

batteries may vary depending on the type of batteries

you use.
Note: The toothbrush will turn on for one second then

immediately shut off to indicate it is time to replace

batteries.

Easy-start
This Sonicare model comes with the Easy-start

feature, which helps you get used to brushing

with Sonicare.

Brushing power gently increases to full power

over the first 14 brushings.

Note: Each of the first 14 brushings must be at least

1 minute in length to advance through the Easy-start

ramp-up cycle properly.
Note: Prior to a clinical test, ensure that the Easy-start

process has been completed, attach a new brush

head and install new AA alkaline batteries.

Cleaning

Do not place brush heads and the handle in the

dishwasher.

1

Rinse the brush head and bristles after each

use. Let the brush head air-dry only (Fig. 11).

2

Remove the brush head once a week and

clean the connection between the brush head

and the handle. (Fig. 12)

Do not use sharp objects to press on the rubber

seal, as this may cause damage.

3

Clean the remainder of the handle

periodically with mild soap and a moist

cloth (Fig. 13).
Storage

If you are not going to use the toothbrush for

an extended period of time (a month or longer),

remove the batteries, clean the appliance and store

it in a cool and dry place.

Replacement
Brush head
Replace Sonicare brush heads every 3 months

to achieve optimal results.

Use only Sonicare HydroClean replacement

brush heads with the B400 model.
Disposal
Do not throw away the appliance with the

normal household waste at the end of its life,

but hand it in at an official collection point for

recycling. By doing this, you help to preserve

the environment (Fig. 14).

This symbol represents Philips’

recommendation to dispose of your AA

batteries properly.
