•Press the release buttons 4 to remove the shaver head. Tap the bottom of the shaver head gently on a flat surface (not on the foil).
•Brush out the cutter block and the inside of the shaver head. However, do not clean the shaver foil with the brush as this may damage the foil.
Keeping your Braun Silk&Soft in top shape
•The shaving parts need to be lubricated regularly every 3 months (E). If you clean the shaver head under running
water, lubricate it after each cleaning. Apply some light machine oil or vase- line to the shaver foil and the metal parts of the long hair trimmer. Then remove the shaver head and also apply a tiny amount of vaseline as shown in picture section (E).
•The shaver foil and the cutter block are precision parts that wear out with time. To maintain optimum shaving performance, replace your foil and cutter block when you notice a reduced shaving performance.
•Do not shave with a damaged foil or cord.
