Operating Instructions

The Oral-B iO Simple Clean is designed for an easy transition to electric brushing, offering essential features for effective cleaning.

• Power On/Off: Press the power button once to turn the toothbrush on. Press it again to turn it off.
• Cleaning Settings: Your toothbrush features 3 cleaning settings:
  • Super-Sensitive: For gentle cleaning, ideal for sensitive gums.
  • Gentle: A soft cleaning mode for everyday use.
  • Daily Clean: Standard cleaning for effective plaque removal.
  To switch between modes, press the mode button (usually below the power button) while the toothbrush is on.
• 2-Minute Timer: The toothbrush has a built-in 2-minute timer, recommended by dentists. It alerts you every 30 seconds to change your brushing zone, ensuring thorough cleaning of all four quadrants of your mouth.
• Automatic Gum Pressure Sensor: This feature protects your gums by slowing down the brush speed and signaling red if you brush too hard. A green light indicates optimal pressure.
• Brushing Technique: Guide the brush head slowly from tooth to tooth. Hold the brush head in place for a few seconds before moving to the next tooth. Brush all surfaces of your teeth (outer, inner, and chewing surfaces).

Maintenance

• Cleaning the Brush Head: After each use, rinse the brush head thoroughly under running water with the handle switched on. Remove the brush head and clean the handle and brush head separately.
• Cleaning the Handle: Wipe the handle with a damp cloth. Do not immerse the handle in water.
• Replacing Brush Heads: Dentists recommend replacing your brush head every 3 months, or sooner if the bristles become splayed or worn. The Oral-B iO Simple Clean is compatible with all Oral-B iO replacement brush heads, including Ultimate Clean, Gentle Care, Radiant White, and Specialized Clean.
• Charging: Store the toothbrush on its charging base when not in use to ensure it remains charged. The battery lasts a long time with a low-charge indicator to notify you when charging is needed.
