If interruption is needed nonetheless, press the start button (4).
•When cleaning is finished, the yellow cleaning light will go off and the shaver is ready for use.
•A cleaning cartridge should be sufficient for about 30 cleaning cycles. When the level indicator (1) has reached the «min» mark, the remaining fluid in the cartridge is sufficient for about 5 more cycles. Then the cartridge should be replaced, when used daily approx. every 4 weeks.
•The hygienic cleaning cartridge contains alcohol, which once opened will naturally evaporate slowly into the surrounding air.
Each cartridge, if not daily used, should be replaced after approximately 8 weeks.
•The cleaning cartridge also contains lubricates, which may leave residual marks on the shaver head after cleaning. However, these marks can be removed easily by wiping gently with a cloth or soft tissue paper.
Cleaning the housing
From time to time clean the housing of the shaver and the Clean&Renew station with a damp cloth, especially inside the cleaning chamber where the shaver rests.
Replacing the cleaning cartridge After having pressed the lift button (2) to open the housing, wait for a few seconds before removing the used cartridge to avoid any dripping.
Before discarding the used cartridge, make sure to close the openings using the lid of the new cartridge, since the used cartridge will contain contaminated cleaning solution.
Rinsing the shaver head under running water is an alternative way to keep the shaver clean, especially when traveling:
•Switch the shaver on (cordless) and rinse the shaver head under hot running water. You may use liquid soap without abrasive substances. Rinse off all foam and let the shaver run for a few more seconds.
•Next, switch off the shaver, press the foil release buttons (3) to remove the shaver foil (1) and cutter block (2). Then leave the disassembled shaving parts to dry.
•If you regularly clean the shaver under water, apply a drop of the light machine oil, included with the shaver, onto the shaver foil and long hair trimmer. This is critical for proper functioning of the shaver as washing under water can lead to removal of lubricants from the shaver’s cutting parts leading to higher friction in the shaver.
This may result in the battery running out faster than normal. Even if this happens – indicated by low charge indicator lighting up earlier, your Braun shaver will run for at least 5 more minutes enabling you to complete your current shave.
The following quick cleaning is another alternative cleaning method:
•Press the foil release buttons (3) to lift the shaver foil (do not remove the foil completely). Switch on the shaver for approx.
•Switch off the shaver. Remove the shaver foil and tap it out on a flat surface. Using the brush, clean the inner area of the shaver head. However, do not clean the shaver foil nor the cutter block with the brush as this will damage them.
