Features

Easy-start

This Sonicare model comes with the Easy-start feature activated, which

helps you get used to brushing with the Sonicare.

The brushing power gently increases to full power over the first 14

brushings.

The Easy-start feature is active if you hear 2 beeps immediately after

you switch on the Sonicare. Once the Sonicare has reached optimal

brushing power (after the 14th brushing), you no longer hear the 2

beeps at the beginning of each brushing cycle.

Note: Each of the first 14 brushings must be at least 1 minute long to move

properly through the Easy-start ramp-up cycle.
Note: While the Easy-start feature is activated, the Dual Speed feature

(Gentle and Max speed modes) does not function. To use the Dual Speed

feature immediately, deactivate the Easy-start feature.

has been deactivated.

4

To activate the Easy-start feature, press and hold the on/off button

for 5 seconds. You hear 2 beeps to indicate that the Easy-start

feature has been activated.

Use of the Easy-start feature beyond the initial ramp-up period is not

recommended and reduces the effectiveness of the Sonicare toothbrush

in removing plaque.
Make sure the Easy-start feature is deactivated and the handle fully

charged when the Sonicare is used in clinical trials.
Smartimer

This Sonicare model comes with the Smartimer feature, which

automatically sets the brushing time to the 2 minutes that dentists and

dental hygienists recommend.

After 2 minutes, the Smartimer automatically switches off the

toothbrush.

If you want to stop brushing briefly during a 2-minute brushing cycle,

press the on/off button. When you press the on/off button again, the

Smartimer resumes the brushing cycle at the point where you stopped.

The Smartimer automatically resets to the beginning of a 2-minute

cycle if:

you stop brushing for 30 seconds or longer;

you put the handle in the charger.
