Introduction

To enter the housing of the handle of the toothbrush, the first step is to remove the back panel. We will be explaining how to pry off the panel to access the other parts inside.

    • Place one hand on the toothbrush handle and one on the toothbrush head.

  2. HOMHue3uL4dJoGGs

    • Separate the toothbrush head from the body by twisting it in a counter-clockwise direction.

    Is there grease in the chamber that the head comes out of? Or is that old toothpaste gunk?

    That does not tell me how to get the brush out. It doesn’t just pull out gently and I’m afraid to pull so hard I break it.

    After unscrewing the toothbrush head from the body, how do I get the brush out. It will not pull off.

    The brush assembly just pulls out as shown. There is nothing holding it in place beyond the big plastic ring. The 'hidden' part with the magnets drops into the cavity where it is surrounded by the hidden coil that causes it to vibrate. If there is any drag it is because some toothpaste, etc, may have made its way in, but should not be a problem to simply wiggle. The toothbrush assembly is supposed to be replaced every 3 - 6 months following that same step.

    • Insert the spudger along the seem at the top of the panel.

    • Begin to pry open the panel.

  4. vkUBSHnTjDOVUhkc

    • Insert the plastic pick at the top of the seam that has already been slightly pried open.

    • Continue down the seam, prying the rest of the panel open with the spudger.

Conclusion

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
