To extend the lifetime of the battery, repeat this procedure every six months. How to use Mount the brush head onto the toothbrush by inserting it into the bayonet catch and turning it. This will make it impossible for the brush head to become detached due to vibration. Place the brush against the tooth at an angle, in such a way that it covers the surface of the tooth as well as the gum line.
