Braun D10 Electric Toothbrush User Manual

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.
Im
portant
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.
Batter
y 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, onl
y 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.
