Cleaning the shaver in the C&C
When the cleaning indicator (5c) lights up in the shaver display, insert the shaver into
the C&C, as described above.
Cleaning programs
short economical cleaning
normal level of cleaning
high intensive cleaning
Start automatic cleaning
Start the cleaning process by pressing the start button (17). If status light (16b) does
not shine (C&C switches to stand-by after ca. 10 minutes), press start button twice.
Otherwise cleaning will not start. For best shaving results, we recommend cleaning
after each shave.
Each cleaning program consists of several cycles, where cleaning fluid is flushed
through the shaver head. Depending on your Clean&Charge Station model and/or
program selected, the cleaning time takes up to 3 minutes. During this time the status
light blinks. Leave the shaver in the station for drying. It takes several hours until
remaining moisture evaporates depending on the climatic conditions.
After completing the cleaning and charging procedure, all indicators turn off.
Removing the shaver from the C&C
Hold the C&C with one hand and tilt the shaver slightly to the front to release it.
Cleaning cartridge / Replacement
When the level indicator (16a) lights up permanently red, the remaining fluid in the
cartridge is sufficient for about 3 more cycles. When the level indicator blinks red, the
cartridge needs to be replaced - about every 4 weeks when used daily.
After having pressed the lift button (14) 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.
The cleaning cartridge can be disposed of with regular household waste.
The hygienic cleaning cartridge contains ethanol or isopropanol (specification see
cartridge), which once opened will naturally evaporate slowly. Each cartridge, if not
used daily, should be replaced after approximately 8 weeks to ensure optimal
disinfection. The cleaning cartridge also contains lubricants for the shaving system,
which may leave residual marks on the outer foil frame and the cleaning chamber of the
C&C. These marks can be removed easily by wiping gently with a damp cloth.
