F2 AA 1.5-volt batteries
Getting started
Installing or replacing batteries
1Remove the battery compartment cap from the bottom of the handle by pulling on the grips (Fig. 2).
2Insert two AA 1.5 volt batteries into the handle. Make sure the + and - poles of the batteries match the indication on the inside of the handle (Fig. 3).
3Firmly push the battery compartment cap back onto the handle (Fig. 4).
Attaching the brush head
1Align the front of the brush head with the front of the toothbrush handle.
2Push the brush head onto the shaft. (Fig. 5)
User ID sticker
-If you have multiple Sonicare battery toothbrushes in your home, you can attach the white or silver sticker to the battery cap.This helps you identify your handle. (Fig. 6)
Using your Sonicare
1Wet the bristles and apply a small amount of toothpaste.
2Place the toothbrush bristles against the teeth at a slight angle towards the gumline (Fig. 7).
3Hold the handle with a light grip and turn on the Sonicare. Gently move the brush head slowly across the teeth in a small back and forth motion so the longer bristles reach between your teeth. Continue this motion throughout your 2-minute brushing cycle.
4To maximize effectiveness, apply only light pressure and let the toothbrush do the brushing for you. Do not scrub.
5To make sure you brush evenly throughout the mouth, divide your mouth into 4 sections: outside top, inside top, outside bottom
and inside bottom teeth. Begin brushing in section 1 (outside top teeth) and brush for
30 seconds before moving to section 2 (inside top teeth). Continue brushing in section 3 (outside bottom teeth) and brush for 30 seconds before moving to section 4 (inside bottom teeth) for a total brushing time of 2 minutes (Fig. 8)
6After you have completed the 2-minute brushing cycle, you can spend additional time brushing the chewing surfaces of your teeth and areas where staining occurs. You may also brush your tongue, with the toothbrush turned on or off, as you prefer (Fig. 9).
Your Sonicare is safe to use on:
-Braces (brush heads wear out sooner when used on braces)
-Dental restorations (fillings, crowns, veneers)
Features

-Flashing green light indicates there are less than 16 brushings available.
-Three beeps at the end of a two-minute brushing indicate that there are less than 4 two-minute brushings available.
Note:The number of brushings you get from new batteries may vary depending on the type of batteries you use.
Note:The toothbrush will turn on for one second then immediately shut off to indicate it is time to replace batteries.
Easy-start
-This Sonicare model comes with the Easy-start feature, which helps you get used to brushing with Sonicare.
-Brushing power gently increases to full power over the first 14 brushings.
Note: Each of the first 14 brushings must be at least 1 minute in length to advance through the Easy-start ramp-up cycle properly.
Note: Prior to a clinical test, ensure that the Easy-start process has been completed, attach a new brush head and install new AA alkaline batteries.
Cleaning

1Rinse the brush head and bristles after each use. Let the brush head air-dry only (Fig. 11).
2Remove the brush head once a week and clean the connection between the brush head and the handle. (Fig. 12)
Do not use sharp objects to press on the rubber seal, as this may cause damage.
3Clean the remainder of the handle periodically with mild soap and a moist cloth (Fig. 13).
