Using The Toothbrush - Braun Oral-B PRO 500 Mode D'emploi

• Plug the charging unit (D) into an
electrical outlet. Place the handle (C)
on the charging unit.
• A full charge takes about 16 hours
and enables up to five days of
regular brushing (twice a day,
2 minutes) (1).
• For everyday use, the handle can be
stored on the plugged-in charging unit
to maintain the toothbrush at full
power. Overcharging is impossible.
Battery maintenance
To maintain the maximum capacity of
the rechargeable battery, unplug the
charging unit and discharge the handle
by regular use at least every 6 months.

Using the toothbrush

• Wet brush head and apply any kind of
toothpaste. To avoid splashing, guide
the brush head to your teeth before
switching the appliance on (B) (2).
• When brushing your teeth with one of
the Oral-B oscillating-rotating brush
heads guide the brush head slowly
from tooth to tooth, spending a few
seconds on each tooth surface.
• When using the Oral-B «Deep
Sweep» brush head place the
toothbrush bristles against the teeth
at a slight angle towards the gumline.
Apply light pressure and start
brushing in back and forth motions,
just like you would do with a manual
toothbrush.
• With any brush head start brushing
the outsides, then the insides and
finally the chewing surfaces. Brush all
four quadrants of your mouth equally.
Do not press too hard, simply let the
brush do all the work. Brush at least 2
minutes to thoroughly remove plaque.
You may also consult your dentist or
dental hygienist about the right
technique for you (3).
• Turn off the handle by pressing the
on/off switch.
Timer (depending on model)
An incorporated timer memorizes the
elapsed brushing time (depending on
model).
«2-Minute» timer: A short stuttering
sound indicates the end of the
professionally recommended 2-minute
brushing time.
«Professional» timer: A short stuttering
sound at 30-second intervals reminds
you to brush equally all four quadrants
of your mouth. A long stuttering sound
indicates the end of the professionally
recommended 2-minute brushing time.
