How to Reset a Sonicare

A Sonicare is an electric toothbrush sold by the Philips company. A Sonicare uses a vibrating head that cleans teeth and gums 2. All models of the Sonicare come with the Easystart feature, where the power of the toothbrush increases gradually over your first 14 uses. Using a Sonicare and its various features -- including resetting the system -- is not complicated.

Place the Sonicare in the charger, with the bottom of the handle securely in place. It takes at least 24 hours of straight charging for it to be ready for use.
