Charging the toothbrush
1
Place charger at a horizontal smooth
location like a sink or washstand.
2
Insert the main unit into the
charge hole in an upright position.
3
Insert the power plug into wall
outlet.
If the main unit is tilted, or the bottom of
the main unit does not connect with
charge hole, the main unit will not be charged.
Make sure that the charger cover is rmly connected to
the charger.
Indicator in charging
If charging continuously
It takes about 17 hours to be fully charged. When
charging is completed, the charge status indicator will
automatically turn off. Remaining battery capacity may
shorten charging time.
More than 17 hours of charging does not affect battery
performance.
A full charge will supply enough power for approx.
30 minutes use. (Use time may vary depending on
ambient temperature and use conditions.)

4
Unplug the power plug when charging is
completed.
Notes
If this unit is not used for more than 6 months, or is being
used for the rst time, the charge status indicator will not
light up immediately, or the duration of use will be shorter.
In this case, charge the appliance for more than 26 hours.
Afterwards, the appliance will operate normally.
Recommended temperature for charging is 0 ºC-35 ºC. When
charging temperature is over or lower than the recommended
temperature, the battery performance may be reduced.
Before cleaning your teeth
The Sonic Vibration Toothbrush is an electric toothbrush with
sonic vibration* of approximately 31 000 brush strokes/minute.
* Sonic vibration in acoustic wave eld
When you rst begin using the toothbrush, you may experience
slight bleeding of the gums even though your gums may be
healthy. This is because your gums are receiving stimulation by
the toothbrush for the rst time. The bleeding should stop after
one or two weeks of use. Bleeding that persists for more than
two weeks may be indication of an abnormal condition of your
gums, such as pyorrhea. In this case, stop using the toothbrush
and consult your dentist.
About soft start function (For NORMAL mode
only)
To prevent toothpaste from spattering and to get accustomed
to the high speed vibration, the toothbrush will gradually reach
the selected speed and vibration approximately 2 seconds
after it starts operating.

About the 30-second brushing notication timer
function
The toothbrush will pause once at 30-second intervals to
indicate the brushing time. The main unit pauses twice at
2-minute intervals then starts again.
Divide your teeth into 4 parts (upper
and lower, left and right), and brush
one part in order such as “
A
front
of the teeth”, “
B
biting plane of the
teeth”, and “
C
back of the teeth”
spending 30 seconds.
By brushing the above 4 parts for
30 seconds each (about
2 minutes), you can evenly brush
your teeth without missing any
spots in your mouth.
Using the toothbrush
The recommended operating temperature of
electric toothbrush is 0 ºC or higher. If the indoor
temperature is below the recommended
temperature, the electric toothbrush may stop
operating.
Do not put the main unit in contact with hair products,
hand creams, etc.
Doing so may damage the exterior.

main unit.
(If the line is not aligned,
the brush head and
main unit may
malfunction.)
Rotate the brush head
to align its line to the
xing position mark of
the brush shaft.
