Is the Oral-B iO Series 2 waterproof?

What does 'iO' stand for?
While not an acronym, 'iO' represents the integration of Oral-B's iconic round brush head with revolutionary micro-vibrations for an unbelievably effective and gentle cleaning experience.
Troubleshooting
Toothbrush not turning on
Ensure the toothbrush is fully charged. Place it on the charger for several hours if it's new or hasn't been used recently. Check if the charging base is properly plugged into a functional power outlet.
Brush head not vibrating strongly or cleaning effectively
The brush head might be worn out. Replace the brush head every 3 months for optimal performance. Also, ensure the brush head is securely attached to the handle. A loose connection can reduce vibration efficiency.
Battery life seems shorter than expected
Ensure the toothbrush is charging correctly on its base. Avoid leaving it discharged for extended periods. Full charges tend to optimize battery life over time. If issues persist, clean the charging contact points on both the handle and the base to ensure good electrical connection.
