front of the handle.

Apply your favorite sticker to the panel as shown on the sticker
sheet (Fig. 3).

2
Let the panel air dry.
3
Reapply the panel to the white section on the front of the handle.
Attaching the brush head

Align the brush head so the bristles point in the same direction as the front
of the handle (Fig. 4).

amount of energy. It takes at least 24 hours to fully charge the battery.
Using the Sonicare For Kids
Brushing instructions
For children under age 8, it is recommended that a parent or adult caregiver
perform toothbrushing.
1
Wet the bristles and apply a small amount of toothpaste.
2
Place the toothbrush bristles against the teeth at a slight angle towards the
gumline (Fig. 6).
3
Press the power on/off button to switch on the Sonicare.
4
Apply light pressure to maximise Sonicare’s effectiveness and let the
Sonicare toothbrush do the brushing for you.
5
Gently move the brush head slowly across the teeth in a small back and
forth motion so the longer bristles reach between the teeth. Continue this
motion throughout the brushing cycle.
Note: To make sure you brush evenly throughout the mouth, divide the mouth into 4
sections using the KidPacer feature (see chapter ‘Features’).
6
Begin brushing in section 1 (outside top teeth) until a tune indicates it is
time to move to section 2 (inside top teeth). At the next tune, move to
section 3 (outside bottom teeth). The next tune indicates it is time to move
to section 4 (inside bottom teeth). The toothbrush automatically switches
off at end of the brushing cycle (Fig. 7).
7
After you have completed the brushing cycle, you can spend additional
time brushing the chewing surfaces of your teeth and areas where staining
occurs. You may also brush your tongue, with the toothbrush switched on
or off, as you prefer (Fig. 8).
The Sonicare For Kids is safe to use on:
- Braces (brush heads wear out sooner when used on braces)
-
Dental restorations (fillings, crowns, veneers)
Brushing modes
The toothbrush automatically starts in the default high mode.
1
Press the brushing mode button to toggle between modes (Fig. 9).
,
The green mode light indicates the selected mode.
- High mode: Full-strength mode designed for older/independent brushers.
- Low mode: Reduced power mode used for training and introducing younger
children to the sonic experience.
Features
KidTimer
- The KidTimer plays a congratulatory tune at the end of the pre-determined
brushing time. Additionally, the KidTimer automatically switches off the
Sonicare when the brushing cycle is complete.
