The charging station 3 may only be operated free-standing  
in dry rooms.  
In moist rooms, especially in the vicinity of water (bath), the  
charging station 3 must be firmly fixed to the wall, to protect  
it from falling into water.  
• Pull the wall holder 4 downwards from underneath the  
charging station 3 .  
• Using the screw openings of the wall holder 4 , mark the  
spacing for the boreholes on the wall. Check to ensure that  
there is a mains power socket in close vicinity.  
• Before boring the holes, check to ensure that there are no  
electrical or water conduits behind the markings.  
• Affix the wall holder 4 using the plugs and screws.  
• When you have attached the wall holder 4 , guide the  
power cable through the right or left recess in the wall  
holder 4 (see magnification on the fold-out side).  
Using the guide rails, slide the charging station 3 onto the  
wall holder 4 .  
• Ensure that the power cable is not trapped and that it lies  
properly in the recesses.

First use  
Before taking the appliance into use check to ensure that it is  
in a fault-free condition. If it is not, it may not be used.  
• Insert the power plug into a wall socket.  
• Before the first use, clean the new brush heads 1 with  
clear water.  
• Place a replacement brush head on the brush holder 2 ,  
open the cover of the charging station 3 and slide the  
brush holder 2 in.  
• Place the hand element on the charging station 3 so that  
it slides onto the spike in the base.  
• Allow the hand element to charge up for approx. 14 -  
16 hours before using it for the first time. The charging  
light 5 on the front of the hand appliance glows red  
during the charging process.  
• Use the hand element repeatedly, and without charging  
the battery, until the performance is noticeably weaker or  
the toothbrush stops working and the charge indicator 5  
blinks red. First then recharge the battery for 14 - 16 hours.  
When the appliance is fully charged, the charge indicator 5  
glows green.  
• Charge and discharge the toothbrush completely 3 times.  
The battery will have then reached its full capacity.  
• You can now leave the hand element in the charging  
station 3 after every use, so as to always have full power  
available.  
For care of the batteries, we recommend the following:  
When the hand element is fully charged, remove the plug  
of the charging station 3 from the mains power socket. First  
reinsert the plug into the mains power socket and recharge  
the hand element when the movement of the toothbrush is  
noticeably weaker or the charge indicator 5 blinks.

Fitting / removing brush heads  
To remove the brush head 1 , turn it clockwise and then pull  
it upwards.  
To fit the brush head 1 place it slightly offset on the hand  
element and then turn it anti-clockwise.  
The brush head 1 must engage on being put back on. To  
avoid damage to the appliance, use only original brush heads.  
(For replacement brush heads, see the order card)  
Operation  
This toothbrush has 3 different performing levels:  
- “Clean”: normal speed level, orange LED 8  
For cleaning the teeth.  
- “Soft”: slow speed level, green LED 7  
For cleaning the teeth of people with sensitive gums.  
- “Pulse”: variable speed levels, yellow LED 6  
For massaging the gums.  
• Press the on/off switch 9 once to switch the level “Clean”  
on. The “Clean” LED 8 glows.  
• Press once more to switch to the level “Soft”. The “Soft”  
LED 7 glows.  
• Press it a third time to switch to the level “Pulse”.  
The “Pulse” LED 6 glows.  
• To switch the toothbrush off, press once more on the on/  
off switch 9 .  
Brushing one’s teeth  
Warning  
Due to the unaccustomed operation some gum bleeding may  
initially occur, this is normal. Should this continue for more  
than two weeks, consult your dentist.  
 
- 6 -  
• Place the brush head 1 on the hand element.  
• Moisten the brush under flowing water.  
• Apply some toothpaste to the moistened brush.  
Notice  
Wait until the appliance is in the mouth before switching it on,  
to avoid spray.  
• With the on/off switch 9 select the desired operating  
level.  
Notice  
This toothbrush has a 30 second interval timer, so that all four  
jaw quandrants can be cleaned equally.  
• Divide your jaw into four sections (quadrants): upper left,  
upper right, lower left and lower right.  
• Begin in one quadrant:  
Place the brush head 1 on your gums and move the brush  
upwards/downwards from the gums to over the crown of  
the tooth.  
Proceed in this manner on both the inside and the outside  
surfaces of the tooth. Start again from the gums for each  
individual tooth.  
 
- 7 -  
Do not forget the back surfaces of the rear molars.  
To clean the chewing surfaces, direct the rotating brush  
head with light pressure over the chewing surfaces.  
• After 30 seconds the toothbrush interrupts its operation  
briefly twice, to signalise to you that you should start to  
clean the next quadrant. Clean all jaw quadrants with the  
same technique.  
• After two minutes the toothbrush stops its operation briefly  
4 times. This informs you that you have complied with the  
dental recommendation of two minutes cleaning.  
• Press the on/off switch 9 repeatedly until the toothbrush  
stops.  
• First take the toothbrush out of your mouth when it has  
stopped.  
• After use, clean the brush head thoroughly under running  
water.  
Notice  
Regularly massage your gums. This promotes blood circulation  
and thus the health preservation of the gums. Set the level at  
“Pulse” and guide the moistened brush over your gums with a  
light pressure.

Cleaning and care  
Warning:  
First remove the plug from the mains power socket before  
cleaning the charging station 3 . There is a risk of receiving  
an electric shock!  
• NEVER open the housing of the charging station 3 or the  
toothbrush! They cannot be resealed in a water-tight manner.  
• Clean the charging station 3 only with a soft, lightly  
moistened cloth. Do not use detergents or solvents. They  
can damage the plastic surfaces.  
• After use, clean the brush heads 1 thoroughly under run-  
ning water. We recommend cleaning the brush heads 1 in  
a standard commercial cleaning fluid for prosthetics every  
2 - 4 weeks. After about 3 months, at the latest however  
when the bristles bend outwards, you should fit a new  
brush head 1 .  
• The brush holder 2 can be cleaned without problem with  
water and some liquid soap. For this, simply lift the brush  
holder 2 upwards.  
Travelling case  
Should you wish to take the toothbrush with you on a tour, you  
can pack both the hand element and two brush heads in the  
travelling case 0 .
