Charging
The best environmental temperature for charging is between 15°C and 35°C.
• Using the special cord set, connect the
shaver to an electrical outlet with the motor
switched off.
• When charging for the first time, leave the
shaver to charge continuously for 4 hours.
Subsequent charges will take about 1 hour.
• As soon as you start charging the shaver,
the charging light (6) comes on.
• Once the shaver is completely charged,
discharge the shaver through normal use.
Then recharge to full capacity.
• A full charge will give up to 40 minutes of
cordless shaving time depending on your
beard growth. However, the maximum
battery capacity will only be reached after
several charging/discharging cycles.
• If the rechargeable batteries are discharged, you may also shave by connecting the shaver to an electrical outlet via the
special cord set.
Trimmer: When the long hair trimmer is
activated, it allows the controlled trimming of
moustache or sideburns.
Tips for the perfect shave
• We recommend that you shave before
washing, as the skin tends to be slightly
swollen after washing.
• Hold the shaver at right angles (90°) to the
skin. Stretch the skin and shave against
the direction of beard growth.
• To maintain 100% shaving performance,
replace your foil and cutter block every 18
months or when worn.
Cleaning
Always unplug the appliance before cleaning.
Regular cleaning ensures better shaving
performance. Rinsing the shaving head after
each shave under hot running water is an easy
and fast way to keep it clean:
• Switch the shaver on (cordless) and rinse
the shaving head under hot running water.
A natural based soap may also be used
provided it contains no particles or
abrasive substances. Rinse off all foam and
let the shaver run for a few more seconds.
• Next, switch the shaver off and press the
release buttons. Lift the shaver foil off and
pull the cutter block out. Then leave the
disassembled shaving parts to dry.
Alternatively, you may clean the shaver using
the brush provided.
• Switch the shaver off. Press the release
buttons and lift shaver foil off.
• Using the brush, clean the cutter block and
the inner area of the shaver head. However,
do not clean the shaver foil with the brush
as this may damage the foil.

Keeping your shaver in top shape
About every four weeks, clean the cutter block
with Braun cleaning agents. Put a drop of light
machine oil onto the long hair trimmer and the
shaver foil.
Preserving the batteries
In order to maintain the optimum capacity of
the rechargeable batteries, the shaver has to
be fully discharged (by shaving) every 6
months approximately. Then recharge the
shaver to full capacity. Do not expose the
shaver to temperatures higher than 50°C for
extended periods of time.
Replacing the shaving parts
To maintain 100% shaving performance,
replace your foil and cutter block every
18 months or when worn. Change both parts
at the same time for a closer shave with less
skin irritation.
