Why doesn’t the Sonicare
toothbrush work?
You may need to recharge the Sonicare. Charge the Sonicare for at
least 24 hours.

cabinets over washbasins or shaver sockets in bathrooms may be cut
off when the light is switched off.
You may need to reattach or replace the brush head.
Why do I feel a tickling sensation
when I use the Sonicare?
You may experience a slight tickling/tingling sensation when you use
Sonicare for the fi rst time. As you become accustomed to brushing
with the Sonicare, this sensation diminishes.
The brush head chatters against
my teeth. What can I do about
this?
To avoid this, keep the brush head properly oriented, with the bristles
placed on the gumline at a slight angle.

less powerful?

to lose power during brushing?

Do I need a special charger if I
travel with my Sonicare?
