Braun Silk'epil 3 Mode D'emploi page 12

For best results, guide the shaving
system in a way that about half of the
shaving foil and the long hair trimmer
touch your skin.
Always guide the appliance in the
direction of the trimmer. The trimmer first
raises all long hairs and cuts them off.
Then the flexible foil follows to smooth
away any stubble.
Pre-cutting hair for epilation
If you choose to pre-cut your hair to
the ideal length for epilation, place the
trimmer cap onto the shaver head.
Hold the appliance with the trimmer cap
lying flat on the skin and guide it with the
comb tips against the hair growth.
As hairs grow in various directions, guide
the appliance slightly diagonally or in
different directions in order to achieve
best results.
Cleaning the shaver head
After shaving, unplug the appliance.
If necessary, remove the trimmer cap
and clean it with the brush.
In order to clean the shaver head, remove
the shaving foil frame (b).
To do so, press the release bars (c) on
the front and back and pull off. Carefully
tap the shaving foil frame on a flat surface.
Brush out the cutter block (d) as well as
the area below the cutter block.
The shaving foil is a very delicate part
that must not be cleaned with the brush.
We recommend that you put a drop of
light machine oil along the length of the
trimmer every 3 months.
Put the shaving foil frame back on and
snap it into place.
Replace the trimmer cap which also
serves as a protective cap.
Note: Do not use the shaver head with a
damaged shaving foil.
Replacing the shaving parts
The shaving foil and the cutter block are
precision parts that wear out with the
12
time. Have the shaving foil frame and the
cutter block replaced when you notice a
reduced shaving performance even after
cleaning the shaver head.
Please do not dispose of the
product in the household waste
at the end of its useful life.
Disposal can take place at a Braun
Service Centre or at appropriate
collection points provided in your
country.
Subject to change without notice.
