Dear parents,
The Braun Oral-B Kids’ Power
Toothbrush has been developed with 
leading dental professionals to effec-
tively remove plaque from children’s 
teeth. It will make it easier for your child 
to brush properly and thoroughly. We 
hope your child will enjoy his/her new 
Braun Oral-B appliance. 
This appliance is suitable for children 
3 years or older. Please read the use 
instructions carefully and completely 
before showing  your child how to use 
the appliance. We recommend that 
parents supervise their children when 
they start using the appliance in order 
to help them become familiar with it.
 
Important
Periodically check the cord for 
damage. Should this be the case, 
take the charging unit (E) to a Braun 
Service Center. A damaged or non-
functioning unit should no longer be 
used.

Specifications
 
Power supply: see bottom of the 
charging unit
Handle voltage: 1.2 V
 
Connecting and charging
 
The toothbrush 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. The charge 
indicator will light up (1). 
 
 
A full charge takes 16 hours and 
will provide an operation time of 
30 minutes. 
 
 
For everyday use, the handle 
can be stored on the plugged-in 
charging unit to maintain the 
appliance 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 electric toothbrush 
with music timer
 
Use the following steps to show and 
explain to your child how to use the 
appliance properly: 
 
 
When the handle is taken from the 
plugged-in charging unit, a short 
melody will sound.  
 
 
Put a small amount of toothpaste 
onto  the brushhead. (We re-
commend  fluoride toothpaste.) 
 
 
First guide the brushhead to the 
teeth, only then turn on the handle 
with switch (B). 
 
 
Start with the lower teeth: Slowly 
guide the brushhead from tooth 
to tooth;  
– first the outsides,
– then the insides, 
– finally the chewing surfaces.
Do not scrub or press too hard.  
The Braun Oral-B Kids’ Power
Toothbrush automatically provides 
the proper cleaning action.
 
 
After one minute of operation, the 
brush movement will be inter-
rupted by a short melody. This 
tells your child to move on to the 
upper teeth. Clean them – again 
tooth by tooth – until the next 
melody plays (after another minute 
of operation). This way you can 
make sure that your child brushes 
his/her teeth for at least 2 minutes 
as recommended by dental 
professionals. 
 
 
Turn off the handle with switch 
(B) while the brushhead is still in 
the mouth. 
We recommend that you replace 
the brushhead every three months. 
The brushhead is provided with a  row 
of blue INDICATOR
 
®
 
 bristles (2a). 
With proper brushing twice a day for 
two minutes, the color will disappear 
half-way down these bristles in a 
3-month period (2b), provided tooth-
paste is used. If bristles begin to splay 
before the color starts to recede, this 
indicates that your child exerts too 
much pressure on teeth and gums (2c).
Replacement brushheads EB10
Available at your retailer or at Braun 
Service Centers. 
 
Cleaning
 
After use, rinse the brushhead for 
several seconds under running water 
with the handle switched on (3). 
Then switch off the handle and take 
off the brushhead. Rinse both parts 
separately under running water (4) and 
wipe them dry before putting the 
handle back onto the charging unit.
