Tips for the perfect shave

We recommend that you shave before washing, as the skin tends to be slightly swollen after washing.

Hold the shaver at right angles (90°) to the skin. Stretch your skin and shave against the direction of beard growth.

To maintain 100% shaving performance, replace your foil and cutter block at least every 18 months or when worn.

Cleaning

Never use water to clean the shaver!

For easy cleaning after each shave, switch the shaver off. Press the release buttons to lift the shaver foil (do not remove the foil completely). Switch on the shaver for approx. 5–10 seconds so that the shaved stubbles can fall out.

Then remove the shaver foil and tap it out on a flat surface. Using the brush, clean the cutter block and the inner area of the pivoting head.

However, do not clean the shaver foil with the brush as this may damage the foil.

Keeping your shaver in top shape

About every four weeks, clean the cutter block with Braun cleaning agents. Put a drop of light machine oil onto the long hair trimmer and the shaver foil.

Preserving the batteries

In order to maintain the optimum capacity of the re- chargeable batteries, the shaver has to be fully discharged (through normal use) every 6 months approximately. Then recharge the shaver to full capacity. Do not expose the shaver to temperatures higher than 50 °C for extended periods of time.
