The Easy-start feature gently increases power over the first 14 brushings to ease into the Sonicare experience. Note: Each of the first 14 brushings must be at least 1 minute in length to move through the Easy-start ramp-up cycle properly. Note:When the Clean and White mode is selected, the Easy-start feature is inactive. EngliSh Deactivating or activating the Easy-start feature 1 Attach your brush head to the handle. Place the handle in the plugged-in charger. - To deactivate Easy-start: Press and hold the power on/off button for 2 seconds. You hear 1 beep to indicate that the Easy-start feature has been deactivated. - To activate Easy-start: Press and hold the power on/off button for 5 seconds. You hear 2 beeps to indicate that the Easy-start feature has been activated. Note: Using the Easy-start feature beyond the initial ramp-up period is not recommended and reduces Sonicare's effectiveness in removing plaque. Smartimer® The Smartimer® indicates that your brushing cycle is complete by automatically turning off the toothbrush at the end of the brushing cycle. Dental professionals recommend brushing no less than 2 minutes twice a day. If you want to pause or stop brushing during your 2-minute cycle, press and hold the power on/off button for 2 seconds.

When you use the two-minute Clean or Sensitive mode, you hear a short beep and a pause in brushing action at 30, 60 and 90 second intervals. - When you use the Clean and White mode, you hear and feel a change in the brush head sound and motion after 2 minutes of Clean mode. Then move the brush head to the visible top front teeth and brush them for 15 seconds. [. . . ] Deactivate the Easy-start feature (See chapter `Features'). You may need to replace your brush head. Why does the Sonicare seem to change power during brushing? You may be in the Clean and White brushing mode. If this is the case, the toothbrush starts in the Clean mode for 2 minutes and then changes to the White mode for 30 seconds. The Clean and White mode has a different sound and brush movement.
