TROUBLESHOOTING

Possible cause

Strong pressure
preventive function is
activated.

This is normal
operation of the soft-
start function.
(See page 26.)

The timer is reminding
you that you have
been brushing for 2
minutes.
(See page 27.)

The main unit was not
positioned straight up
in the charger and
was unable to charge.
(See page 25.)

The battery has
reached the end of its
life cycle (about 3
years).

Charging time was
insufficient.

Problem

If the toothbrush is
pressed hard against
your teeth, the
intensity of the
vibration weakens.

After turning on the
power, the toothbrush
vibration speed
increases gradually.

After 2 minutes of use
the toothbrush stops
temporarily and starts
again.

The toothbrush
operates only for a
short period of time
even immediately after
being charged.

Remedy

Place the brush gently
against your teeth.

Not a malfunction.
Continue using.

Not a malfunction.
Continue using.

Stand the main unit up
straight so that the bottom
touches the charging base,
and make sure the charging
indicator comes on.

Take the unit to an
authorised service centre to
have the battery replaced.
(Do not attempt to replace
the battery yourself since
you may damage the unit’s
waterproofing or internal
mechanisms.)

Charge the main unit for at
least 15 hours. (See page
25.)

If the device still does not function properly, stop using it and contact an
authorised service centre.

WARNING:
Do not disassemble the product at any time other than when disposing of it.
Doing so may result in short circuit, fire, or injury.
For repair or maintenance (such as battery replacement), take the product
to an authorised service centre.
The supply cord of the charging adaptor cannot be replaced; if the cord is
damaged, the entire charger should be discarded.

Possible cause

You have just pur-
chased the product or
have not used it for
more than 3 months.

Problem

The toothbrush
doesn’t operate.

The direction of the
brush movement
changes. (The brush
head moves from side
to side.)

The toothbrush is not
working properly. (For
example, its move-
ment is uneven.)

Remedy

Charge the main unit for at
least 15 hours. (See page
25.)

Not a malfunction. Remove
the brush head once and
put it back to the correct
position.

Place the main unit in the
charger for at least 15
hours, then turn it on again
to see if it operates
properly.
