FAQs
How often should I charge my Oral-B iO6?
For optimal performance, it is generally recommended to charge your Oral-B iO6 when the battery indicator on the display shows low power. A full charge can last several days, depending on usage, but charging after every few uses is a good habit to maintain.
Can I use any Oral-B brush heads with my iO6 toothbrush?
No, the Oral-B iO6 electric toothbrush is only compatible with Oral-B iO series brush heads. Other Oral-B brush head types are not designed to fit or function with the iO technology.
What is the purpose of the Oral-B App and do I have to use it?
The Oral-B App uses AI to provide real-time brushing tracking, guiding you to ensure you don't miss any spots and helping you improve your brushing technique. While the toothbrush functions perfectly well without the app, using it unlocks the full smart features and personalized coaching for the most effective clean.
What do the different cleaning modes do?
The iO6 offers 5 cleaning modes: 'Daily Clean' for everyday use, 'Intense Clean' for a more powerful sensation, 'Sensitive' and 'Super-Sensitive' for gentle cleaning of sensitive areas, and 'Whitening' to gently polish away surface stains. You can select the mode that best suits your oral care needs via the display.
How does the Smart Pressure Sensor work?
The Smart Pressure Sensor lights up on the handle to provide visual feedback. If you press too hard, it will glow red to warn you. If you apply the right amount of pressure, it will glow green. If you're brushing too softly, it won't light up (or may show white), indicating you might need to apply a bit more pressure for an effective clean.
Is the Oral-B iO6 waterproof?
Yes, the Oral-B iO6 handle is designed to be waterproof and can be safely rinsed under running water. However, the charging base is not waterproof and should not be immersed in water.
How often should I replace the brush head?
Dentists recommend replacing your toothbrush head every three months, or sooner if the bristles become splayed or worn. The interactive display on your iO6 will also provide a reminder when it's time for a replacement.
Troubleshooting
Toothbrush won't turn on or hold a charge.
Ensure the charging base is securely plugged into a live power outlet. Verify that you are using the correct UK 2-pin charger or an appropriate adapter. Place the toothbrush handle firmly on the charger and allow it to charge for at least 30 minutes. Check for any damage to the charger or handle. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
Oral-B App isn't connecting to the toothbrush.
Make sure your smartphone's Bluetooth is enabled and the Oral-B app is open. Ensure the toothbrush handle is powered on and near your phone. Try restarting both your toothbrush and your phone. If still unable to connect, remove the toothbrush from the app's 'Paired Devices' list and attempt to pair it again.
Pressure sensor light is always red (too much pressure) or never lights up.
If always red, try reducing the force you apply during brushing; the sensor is designed to be highly sensitive. If it never lights up, ensure the brush head is securely attached. If the issue continues, it may indicate a sensor malfunction, and contacting support is recommended.
Brush head feels loose or falls off during brushing.
Ensure you are using an Oral-B iO series brush head, as other Oral-B brush heads are not compatible. Push the brush head firmly onto the metal shaft until you hear or feel it click securely into place. If the brush head still feels loose, inspect both the brush head and the handle's shaft for any damage.
Poor cleaning performance or unusual noise.
Replace your brush head if it's old (recommended every 3 months) or if the bristles are splayed. Ensure you are using the correct brushing technique as guided by the app or user manual. Clean the brush head and handle thoroughly after each use to prevent debris buildup. If the noise is unusual and persistent, contact customer support.
