Specifications

Power supply: see bottom of charging unit

Handle voltage: 1.2 V

Connecting and charging

The appliance is electrically safe and can be used in the bathroom without hesitation.

•Plug the charging unit into an electrical outlet. Place the handle on the charging unit. Handle must be switched off.

•A full charge takes 16 hours and will provide an operation time of approx. 20 minutes.

•For everyday use, the handle can be stored on the plugged-in charging unit to maintain the toothbrush at full power. Overcharging is impossible.

Battery maintenance

To maintain the maximum capacity of the rechargeable battery, unplug the charging unit and discharge the handle by regular use at least every 6 months.

Using the toothbrush

Use the following steps to show and explain to your child how to use the appliance properly:

•Put a small amount of toothpaste onto the brush head. (We recommend fluoride toothpaste.)

•First guide the brush head to the teeth, only then turn on the handle with switch (B).

•Start with the lower teeth: Slowly guide the brush head from tooth to tooth;

–first the outsides,

–then the insides,

–finally the chewing surfaces.

Do not scrub or press too hard.

The Oral-B AdvancePower Kids automa- tically provides the proper cleaning action.

•After one minute of operation, an incorpo- rated timer signals by a short stutter. This tells your child to move on to the upper teeth and clean them – again tooth by tooth – until the next timer signal is given.

•Turn off the handle with switch (C) while the brush head is still in the mouth.

We recommend that you replace the brush head every three months.

The brush head is provided with a row of blue INDICATOR® bristles (1a).

With proper brushing twice a day for two minutes, the colour will disappear half-way down these bristles in a 3-month period (1b), provided toothpaste is used. If bristles begin to splay before the colour starts to recede, this indicates that your child exerts too much pressure on teeth and gums (1c).

Replacement brush heads EB10

Available at your retailer or at Oral-B Braun Service Centres.

Cleaning

After use, rinse the brush head for several seconds under running water with the handle switched on (2). Then switch off the handle and take off the brush head. Rinse both parts separately under running water (3) and wipe them dry before putting the handle back onto the charging unit.
