Using the Sonicare For Kids
Brushing instructions
For children under age 8, it is recommended that a parent or adult
caregiver perform tooth brushing.
Wet the bristles and apply a small amount of toothpaste.
1
Place the toothbrush bristles against the teeth at a slight angle
2
towards the gumline (Fig. 6).
Press the power on/off button to turn on the Sonicare.
3
Apply light pressure to maximize Sonicare's effectiveness and let
4
the Sonicare toothbrush do the brushing for you.
Gently move the brush head slowly across the teeth in a small back
5
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").
Begin brushing in section 1 (outside top teeth) a series of musical
6
notes indicate it is time to move to section 2 (inside top teeth). At
the next series of notes move to section 3 (outside bottom teeth).
The next series of notes indicate it is time to move to section 4
(inside bottom teeth). The toothbrush will automatically turn off
at end of the brushing cycle (Fig. 7).
After you have completed the brushing cycle, you can spend
7
additional time brushing the chewing surfaces of your teeth and
areas where staining occurs. You may also brush your tongue,
with the toothbrush turned on or off, as you prefer (Fig. 8).
Your Sonicare 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.
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 sound sequence at the end
of the pre-determined brushing time. Additionally, the KidTimer
automatically turns off the handle when the brushing cycle is
complete.
-
When in high mode, the KidTimer is set at 2 minutes.
-
When in low mode the KidTimer is set at 1 minute and slowly
increases over time. The progression of time helps young children
reach the dentist recommended 2 minutes of brushing.
Note: Instruct your child to brush until they hear the congratulatory tune and
the toothbrush turns off.
KidPacer
The KidPacer uses a short series of tones to alert the brusher to move to
the next brushing quadrant of the mouth. This ensures that the child gets
a thorough, overall clean (see "Brushing instructions").
Easy-start
-
The Sonicare For Kids comes with the Easy-start feature activated.
-
The Easy-start feature gently increases the power over the first
14 brushings.
Note: Each of the first 14 brushings must be at least 1 minute in length to
properly advance through the Easy-start ramp-up cycle.

Press and hold the power on/off button for 2 seconds. You hear 2 beeps
