Problem

Solution

The Sonicare toothbrush does not work

Recharge your Sonicare overnight, ensuring that it is not plugged into an

 

electrical outlet controlled by a light switch. Make sure the brush head is

 

attached correctly.

I feel a tickling sensation when I use Sonicare.

You may experience a slight tickling/tingling sensation when using Sonicare for the first time. As you become accustomed to brushing with Sonicare this sensitivity will diminish.

The brush head rattles when I use Sonicare

Sonicare should produce a gentle hum during operation.Tightening the

 

brush head nut can eliminate excessive rattling. If rattling does not stop,

 

you may need to replace the brush head. Make sure that the travel cap

 

has been removed.

 

 

The brush head chatters against my teeth.

This can be avoided by keeping the brush head properly oriented, with

 

the brush head placed on the gumline at an angle of 30 to 40 degrees.

Brushing seems less powerful.

The handle may need recharging.

 

 

 

The Easy-start feature may be on and needs to be shut off (see chapter

 

"Using the appliance")

 

You may need to clean your brush head.

 

 

 

You may need to replace your brush head.

Unpleasant odor

Clean the handle, brush head and charger thoroughly (see chapter

 

"Cleaning").

 

 

 

Replace the brush head with a new one.
