Frequently Asked Questions - Sonicare HX7553 PHILIPS

How to charge the Sonicare HX7553 toothbrush?
Place the handle on the plugged-in charger. The first charge must last at least 24 hours. Then, keep the handle on the charger for continuous charging.
What is the Easy-start function and how to disable it?
Easy-start gradually increases power over the first 14 uses. To disable it, place the handle on the plugged-in charger and hold the power button for 5 seconds until you hear a beep.
How to program the Quadpacer timer?
Place the handle on the charger, briefly press the two-speed control button, then hold it down. Release when the indicator corresponding to the desired duration (2 min, 2.5 min, or off) lights up.
Why does the brush head click?
The clicking may be due to a loose tightening ring. Tighten the ring by turning it clockwise. If the noise persists, replace the brush head.
What does the flashing yellow indicator mean?
The flashing yellow indicator means the battery is low and there are less than 3 brushing cycles (2 minutes each) left. Recharge immediately for at least 24 hours.
How to clean the Sonicare HX7553 toothbrush?
Rinse the brush head after each use. Clean the head and tightening ring weekly. The handle can be washed in the dishwasher (top rack, without head or charger). The charger must be unplugged and cleaned with a damp cloth.
When should I replace the brush head?
It is recommended to replace the brush head every 6 months, or sooner if the bristles are crushed or bent.
Can I use the toothbrush after dental surgery?
Consult your dentist before using this product if you have had oral or gum surgery within the last 2 months.
What to do if the toothbrush does not work?
Check that the battery is charged (at least 24 hours). Ensure the power outlet works and the handle is properly seated on the charger. If the problem persists, tighten the tightening ring or replace the brush head.
How to change the brushing speed?
During brushing, press the two-speed control button. A double beep indicates the change. The normal speed is recommended for optimal results; the reduced speed provides gentler brushing.

Charging your Sonicare®

PHILIPS Sonicare HX7553 - Charging your Sonicare® - 1

natural_image Simple line drawing of a curved mechanical component or bracket (no text or symbols)

Sonicare comes with the batteries completely discharged and should be charged for at least 24 hours during the first few days of use.

- It is recommended that you keep your Sonicare in the charger when not in use to maintain a full battery charge. It takes at least 24 hours to fully charge Sonicare's battery.

I Be sure the bottom of the handle sits back securely in the charger, making complete contact.

- Handles of other Sonicare models do not fit in this charger and will therefore not charge effectively. Do not attempt to force a handle into this charger as this will cause damage.

Using the appliance

Useful tips

  • The brush head comes with a convenient travel cap. Remove the travel cap from the brush head before turning on your Sonicare.
  • Place the brush head in your mouth before turning on your Sonicare, and be sure it is turned off before removing it from your mouth, otherwise toothpaste may splatter.
  • Rinse the brush head and bristles after each use.
  • Clean the brush head weekly, including under the nut.
  • A fully charged Sonicare will provide approximately 2 weeks of typical use (2 minutes of brushing twice a day), making it easy to travel without the charger.

Remember: voltage converters and plug adapters DO NOT guarantee voltage compatibility. Always check for voltage compatibility.

Brushing technique

45°

Follow these simple steps to maximize your brushing experience:

Before turning the Sonicare on, place the bristles of the brush head on your gumline at a 45-degree angle.
2 Hold the handle with a light grip, turn the Sonicare on, and gently move the bristles in a small circular motion so the longer bristles reach between your teeth. After a few seconds glide the bristles to the next section. Continue this routine throughout your 2-minute brushing cycle.
3 To maximize Sonicare's effectiveness apply only light pressure and let the Sonicare toothbrush do the brushing for you. Do not scrub.

4 To make sure you brush evenly throughout the mouth, divide your mouth into 4 sections: outside top, inside top, outside bottom and inside bottom teeth. Begin brushing in section I (outside top teeth) and brush for 30 seconds before moving to section 2 (inside top teeth). Continue brushing for 30 seconds in each section progressing through all 4 sections until you've brushed for 2 minutes.

5 After having completed the 2-minute brushing cycle, additional time should be spent brushing the chewing surfaces of your teeth.

6 Press the power button to turn the brush on and off as needed.

- You may also brush your tongue, with the toothbrush turned on or off, as you prefer.

Tips for specific oral care needs

- Stain removal

In areas where staining occurs, spend extra brushing time to assist with stain removal.

- Braces

The brush should be placed at a 45-degree angle between your brackets and gumline. Using light pressure, gently move the bristles in a small circular motion so that the long bristles reach between your teeth for 2 seconds. Then gently turn (roll) the brush handle so the bristles clean the bracket and the rest of the tooth before you move the bristles to the next tooth. Continue this until you have brushed all of your teeth. Please note that brush heads will wear out sooner when used on braces.

▶ Dental restorations (dental work)

Use Sonicare on dental restorations (such as implants, caps, crowns, bridges and fillings) as you would on your normal tooth surfaces to reduce plaque build-up and improve gum health. Work the bristles around all areas of the restoration for thorough cleaning.

- Periodontal pockets

Your dental professional may have indicated that you have periodontal pockets, deep pockets where plaque bacteria collect. If this is the case, after brushing for a full 2 minutes, spend extra time gently brushing these areas to improve your gum health.

Features

Easy-start®brushing power ramp-up

  • All Sonicare models come with the Easy-start feature activated, which helps you get used to brushing with Sonicare.
  • Brushing power will gently increase to full power over the first 14 brushings.
    The Easy-start feature is active if you hear 2 beeps immediately after turning on your Sonicare. Once the appliance has reached optimal brushing power (after the 14th brushing), you will no longer hear the double beep at the beginning of your brushing routine.
    ▶ Note: Each of the first 14 brushings must be at least 1 minute in length to properly advance through the Easy-start ramp-up cycle.

To deactivate or activate the Easy-start feature:

I Attach your brush head to the handle.
2 Place the handle in the plugged-in charger.
3 To deactivate Easy-start feature: while handle is still in the charger, press and hold the power button for 5 seconds. You will hear I beep to indicate that the Easy-start feature has been deactivated.
4 To reactivate Easy-start: while handle is still in the charger, press and hold the power 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 Sonicare's effectiveness in removing plaque.

The Easy-start feature should be deactivated when Sonicare is used in clinical trials.

Smartimer®2-minute timer

  • All Sonicare models come with the Smartimer feature, which automatically sets the brushing time to the 2 minutes recommended by dental professionals.
  • After 2 minutes, your Sonicare will automatically turn off the toothbrush.
  • If you wish to pause or stop brushing during your 2-minute cycle, press the power button. Press the power button again and the Smartimer will pick up where you left off.

Diagram illustrating dental tooth movement and brushing process with numbered steps

  • The Smartimer will automatically reset to the beginning of a 2-minute cycle if:
  • brushing is paused for 30 seconds or longer;
  • the handle is returned to the charger.

Quadpacer®30-second interval timer

- Quadpacer makes sure that you brush all sections of your mouth evenly and thoroughly. When using a two-minute brushing cycle, you will hear a short beep and a pause in brushing action at 30, 60 and 90 second intervals.

Programmable Quadpacer timer (select models only)

The Programmable Quadpacer timer offers you the option of customizing the Quadpacer performance in 1 of 3 ways:

  • You may opt to keep the factory default setting of a 2-minute brushing time with Quadpacer feature activated.
  • You may choose to extend your brushing time to 2 1/2 minutes by adding an additional timing interval of 30 seconds with Quadpacer feature active.
  • You may choose a 2-minute brushing time, but with the Quadpacer feature turned off.

To change the Quadpacer settings:

4 To program the desired setting, release the button when the LED corresponding to your choice lights up.

▶ Note: Selecting 2 1/2 minutes brushing time reduces the number of brushings available from a fully charged battery.

Dual Speed Control

The Dual Speed Control feature allows you to choose between 2 speed settings: Normal speed for optimum brushing performance, or Reduced speed when an even more gentle action is desired.

Each time you turn your Sonicare on, it will begin brushing at the Normal speed setting. To change the speed setting:

Diagram showing directional arrows and circular symbols with a black arrow pointing to a vertical line segment

1 From Normal to Reduced speed: press the Dual Speed Control button once during brushing.

2 From Reduced to Normal speed: press the Dual Speed Control button a second time during brushing.

A distinctive two-tone beep indicates that the speed setting has been changed.

It is recommended that you brush at the Normal speed setting to maintain optimal results.

The Normal setting should be selected when Sonicare is used in clinical trials.

Battery Charge Indicator

Diagram showing a device with labeled buttons and an arrow pointing to a numbered section, marked with '3x' and musical note symbol.

- If the battery charge of your Sonicare is low, you will hear 3 beeps after you have brushed your teeth for 2 minutes and the charge indicator LED will blink yellow for 30 seconds.

A low charge indication signifies that 3 or fewer 2-minute brushings remain.

When not in use, keep your Sonicare in the charger to maintain a full battery charge.

Multiple-LED charge indicator

- When the handle is placed in the charger, the green charge indicator LEDs will blink in a rising pattern as the battery charges. The number of blinking LEDs indicates the level to which the battery has been charged.

When the battery reaches full charge, the LEDs stop blinking and illuminates continuously. About once a minute, the charge indicator LEDs go out momentarily and then come back on. This indicates that the battery is being maintained at full charge. The full charge indication will persist until the handle is removed from the charger.

The blinking yellow LED indicates that fewer than 3 brushings remain.
