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").
