Cleaning

This appliance is suitable for cleaning under an open water tap.

Warning: Detach the hand-held part from the power supply before cleaning it in water.

Regular cleaning ensures better shaving performance. Rinsing the shaving head after each shave under running water is an easy and fast way to keep it clean:

Switch the shaver on (cordless) and rinse the shaving head under hot running water. A natural based soap may also be used provided it contains no particles or abrasive substances. Rinse off all foam and let the shaver run for a few more seconds.

Next, switch off the shaver, remove the shaver foil and the cutter block. Then leave the disassembled shaving parts to dry.

If you regularly clean the shaver under water, then once a week apply a drop of light machine oil onto the long hair trimmer and shaver foil.

Alternatively, you may clean the shaver using the brush provided:

Switch off the shaver. Remove the shaver foil.

Using the brush, clean the cutter block and the inner area of the shaver 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.

Replacement light for shaving parts / Reset To maintain 100% shaving performance, replace your foil and cutter block, when the replacement light for shaving parts (8) comes on (after about 18 months) or when worn.

Change both parts at the same time for a closer shave with less skin irritation.

(Shaver foil and cutter block: 5000 series)

The replacement light will remind you during the next 7 shaves to replace the shaving parts. Then the shaver will automatically reset the display.

After you have replaced the shaving parts (foil and cutter block), use a ball-pen to push the reset button (9) for at least 3 seconds to reset the counter.

While doing so, the replacement light blinks and goes off when the reset is complete. The manual reset can be done at any time.

Preserving the batteries

In order to maintain the optimum capacity of the rechargeable batteries, the shaver has to be fully discharged (by shaving) 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.
