User manual PHILIPS HX5752

[. . . ] The Sonicare toothbrush complies with the safety standards for electromagnetic devices. If you have a pacemaker or other implanted device, consult your doctor or the manufacturer of the implanted device if you have any questions about using the Sonicare. Do not use other brush heads than the ones recommended by the manufacturer. Replace the brush head every 6 months or sooner if signs of wear appear, such as crushed or bent bristles. [. . . ] Please note that brush heads will wear out sooner when used on braces. Use the Sonicare on dental restorations (such as implants, caps, crowns, bridges and fillings) as you would on your natural tooth surfaces to reduce plaque build-up and improve gum health. Work the bristles around all the areas of the restoration for thorough cleaning. If your dentist has indicated that you have periodontal pockets (deep pockets where plaque bacteria collect), you can improve your gum health by dedicating extra brushing time to the problem areas after having completed your regular 2-minute brushing cycle. All Sonicare models come with the Easy-start feature activated, which helps you get used to brushing with the Sonicare. The brushing power will gently increase to full power over the first 12 brushings. The Easy-start feature is active if you hear 2 beeps immediately after switching the Sonicare on. Once the Sonicare has reached optimal brushing power (after the 12th brushing), you will no longer hear the 2 beeps at the beginning of each brushing cycle. Note: each of the first 12 brushings must be at least 1 minute long to properly move through the Easy-start ramp-up cycle. You will hear 1 beep to indicate that the Easy-start feature has been deactivated. to activate the Easy-start feature , press and hold the on/off button for 5 seconds. You will hear 2 beeps to indicate that the Easy-start feature has been activated. Using the Easy-start feature beyond the initial ramp-up period is not recommended and reduces the effectiveness of the Sonicare toothbrush in removing plaque. The Easy-start feature should be deactivated and the handle fully charged when the Sonicare is used in clinical trials. If you wish to stop brushing briefly during a 2-minute brushing cycle, press the on/off button. When you press the on/off button again, the Smartimer will resume the brushing cycle at the point where you stopped. The Smartimer will automatically reset to the beginning of a 2-minute cycle if: - you stop brushing for 30 seconds or longer; - you put the handle in the charger. The Quadpacer 30-second interval timer ensures that you brush all sections of your mouth evenly and thoroughly. At 30, 60 and 90 seconds, you will hear a short beep and a pause in brushing action. This is your signal to start brushing the next section of your mouth. When the battery is running low, you hear 5 beeps after the 2-minute brushing cycle and the charging light blinks rapidly. When you hear the low charge indication, there are 3 or fewer 2-minute brushings left. [. . . ] The brush head rattles when I use the Sonicare. You may experience a slight tickling/tingling sensation when using the Sonicare for the first time. As you become accustomed to brushing with the Sonicare, this sensation will diminish. The Sonicare should produce a gentle hum during operation. [. . . ]
