Using the toothbrus\eh
1.  Remo\be the cap.
2.  Confi rm that the brush head is fi xed fi rmly.

 Advice for brushing
How to hold the tooth\ebrush
Hold the toothbrush \elightly and do not use too\e much force\bBrushing while pressi\-ng down hard may damage the teeth \-or 
gums. Holding the toothb\-rush lightly as shown in the \figure 
allows the best use of\- the bristle tips.
How to move the brush
Move horizontally, a little at a time\e\b
Milk teeth are cha\-racterized by wide gaps between the teeth.
Aim to use the tip\-s of the bristles to clean th\-e gaps between 
the milk teeth.
The fi ne motion of the b\-rush will help the \-bristles reach 
diffi cult spots.
Check that no spot has\e been missed
Use the LED lamp to\e get a clear view\b
Using the LED lamp \-allows a clear \biew of the inside of\- the 
mouth. It is easy to miss\- spots on the mola\-rs, but a clear \biew 
is now possible simply by applying the brush. Make sure that 
the brush is reaching its\- target as you brush.
 Points to avoid pain in children
Finger technique is the key
If the child does \-not like brushing diffi cult spots, gently push down and pull 
up on the child's \-lips with your fi ngers so that you can brush smoothly.
Upper front teeth
With the fl eshy part of the index fi nger of your other hand, 
gently lift the upp\-er lip.
•	Pulling the connect\-i\be tissue, called the frenulum, abo\be 
the front teeth ma\-y hurt, so be careful.
Outer side of molars
Ha\be the child say “Eeee”, then inser\-t your fi nger from the 
edge of the lips to\- pull the cheek ou\-tward. If the child open\-s 
wide, the cheek will n\-ot stretch outwards and it will b\-e diffi cult 
to insert the brush deep into the \-mouth.
If the child is trying to close his or her mou\eth, this may indicate pain 
due to excessive force\b
After use
Washing the brush hea\ed
Wash the brush head under running water.
•	Do not wash with water hotter than 8\-0 ˚C (176 ˚\f).
•	 Do not pull the br\-istles of the brush.

•	 Shake well to remo\be water after washing.
Washing the main uni\et
1.  Make sure that the ba\-ttery co\ber is closed.
2.  Wash the main unit \-under running water.
•	Do not wash with water hotter than 4\-0 ˚C (104 ˚\f).
•	 Do not immerse the\- main unit under w\-ater.
(Otherwise water may get inside.)
Washing the cap
Wash the Cap under \-running water.
•	Do not wash with water hotter than 4\-0 ˚C (104 ˚\f).
Caution
•	Shake the cap and brush head well to drain off water, and dry them using 
a dry towel, etc. After this, put the cap on t\-he main unit. Lea\bing them wet 
may dirty or damage the po\-uch or bag.
