Tips for the perfect shave
For best results, Braun recommends
you follow 3 simple steps:
1. Always shave before washing your
face.
2. At all times, hold the shaver at right
angles (90°) to your skin.
3. Stretch your skin and shave against
the direction of your beard growth.

Cleaning indicator
Your shaver should be cleaned daily in
the Clean&Renew, and certainly when the
yellow cleaning light (7) shines constantly
after shaving. If this is not done, the
yellow light will go out after some time.
The shaver's electronics will then assume
it has been cleaned manually and a new
calculation of the time when the next
cleaning is required will be started. During
the cleaning process in the Clean&Renew
the yellow light will flash and will go off
after approx. 4 hours when cleaning is
finished.
Automatic cleaning
Once the shaver is put into the
Clean&Renew, it is cleaned automatically
(see «C Clean&Renew»).
Manual cleaning is recommended only
when the Clean&Renew is not available,
e. g. when travelling.
Manual cleaning
The shaver head is suitable for
cleaning under running tap water.
Warning: Detach the shaver from
the power supply before cleaning
the shaver head in water.
Regular cleaning ensures better shaving
performance. Rinsing the shaver head
under running water after each shave is
an easy and fast way to keep it clean:
• 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, remove the
shaver Foil & Cutter cassette (1) and let
it 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 (2) and shaver Foil & Cutter
cassette (1).
Alternatively, you may clean the shaver
using a brush:
• Switch off the shaver. Remove the
shaver Foil & Cutter cassette and tap it
out on a flat surface.
• Using a brush, clean the inner area of
the shaver head. However, do not clean
the shaver Foil & Cutter cassette with a
brush as this may damage it.
Replacement light for shaving parts/
Reset
To maintain 100% shaving performance,
replace the shaver Foil & Cutter cassette
(1), when the replacement light for
shaving parts (8) comes on (after about
18 months) or when worn.
The replacement light will remind you
during the next 7 shaves to replace the
foil and cutter cassette. Then the shaver
will automatically reset.
