Charging the toothbrush

1

Place charger at a horizontal smooth

location like a sink or washstand.

2

Insert the main unit into the

charge hole in an upright position.

3

Insert the power plug into wall

outlet.

• If the main unit is tilted, or the bottom of

the main unit does not connect with

charge hole, the main unit will not be charged.

• Make sure that the charger cover is rmly connected to

the charger.

Indicator in charging

If charging continuously

• It takes about 17 hours to be fully charged. When

charging is completed, the charge status indicator will

automatically turn off. Remaining battery capacity may

4

Unplug the power plug when charging is

completed.

►Notes

• If this unit is not used for more than 6 months, or is being

used for the rst time, the charge status indicator will not

light up immediately, or the duration of use will be shorter.

In this case, charge the appliance for more than 26 hours.

Afterwards, the appliance will operate normally.

• Recommended temperature for charging is 0 ºC-35 ºC. When

charging temperature is over or lower than the recommended

temperature, the battery performance may be reduced.

Before cleaning your teeth

The Sonic Vibration Toothbrush is an electric toothbrush with

sonic vibration* of approximately 31 000 brush strokes/minute.

* Sonic vibration in acoustic wave eld

When you rst begin using the toothbrush, you may experience

slight bleeding of the gums even though your gums may be

healthy. This is because your gums are receiving stimulation by

the toothbrush for the rst time. The bleeding should stop after

one or two weeks of use. Bleeding that persists for more than

two weeks may be indication of an abnormal condition of your

gums, such as pyorrhea. In this case, stop using the toothbrush

and consult your dentist.

►About soft start function (For NORMAL mode

only)

To prevent toothpaste from spattering and to get accustomed

to the high speed vibration, the toothbrush will gradually reach

the selected speed and vibration approximately 2 seconds

after it starts operating.

►About the 30-second brushing notication timer

function

The toothbrush will pause once at 30-second intervals to

indicate the brushing time. The main unit pauses twice at

2-minute intervals then starts again.

• Divide your teeth into 4 parts (upper

and lower, left and right), and brush

one part in order such as “

A

front

of the teeth”, “

B

biting plane of the

teeth”, and “

C

spending 30 seconds.

By brushing the above 4 parts for

30 seconds each (about

your teeth without missing any

spots in your mouth.
