Charging the shaver

stop

• Using the special cord set, connect the shaver to an electrical outlet and charge it for at least 8 hours (shaver and adapter might get warm). Once the shaver is completely charged, shave without the cord until fully discharged. Then recharge to full capacity again.

• When the shaver is completely discharged, you cannot know if it is switched on or not. When you connect the shaver to an electrical outlet, make sure the green charging light illuminates. If it does not, push the start/ stop button (turning off the shaver). The shaver is only charging when the green light is on.

•A full charge will give up to 30 minutes of cordless shaving time depending on your beard growth. However, the maximum battery capacity will only be reached after several charging/discharging cycles.

• Best environmental temperature range for charging is 60 °F to 95 °F/ 15 °C to 35 °C.

The green charging light shows that the shaver is being charged. When the rechargeable battery is fully charged, the green charging light intermittently blinks on and off. This indicates that the battery maintains its full capacity.

Preserving the rechargeable battery

In order to maintain the optimum capacity of the rechargeable battery, the shaver has to be fully discharged (by shaving) every 6 months approximately. Then recharge the shaver to full capacity again.

Inserting the cartridge

a) Disconnect the special cord set from the shaver. b) Open latch and pull away cover. c) If necessary, remove old cartridge by its pull-out tag. d) Remove sealing foil from new cartridge. e) Insert cartridge as shown, push firmly. f) Put cover in place and close latch.

• Only use original Braun cartridges.

• Depending on scale setting and your personal shaving habits, one cartridge will last for approximately 15 shaves.

• Do not attempt to refill cartridges.

• The cartridge can be removed and reinserted later. In that case a small loss of Shaving Conditioner might occur. While traveling, do not take an unsealed cartridge along nor leave one in the shaver.

Shaving

GlideControl allows you to choose the amount of Shaving Conditioner you want to apply («min-max»): When you raise the distancing bar (moving the scale to «min»), the applicator will have less contact with your skin and will apply less Shaving Conditioner. If you move the scale to «max», more Conditioner will be applied. Please be aware that, in order to optimally pre-condition your skin, during the first seconds somewhat more Conditioner will be applied. Before shaving you should not use moisturizing creme or lotions, as they might impair the effectiveness of the applicator. After shaving, there is no restriction on the use of After Shave or Eau de Toilette.

Turning on the shaver («start»): The pivoting cutting system automatically adjusts to every contour of your face.

Shaving in difficult areas (e.g. under the nose) will be facilitated if the shaving head is locked.

Trimmer: When the long hair trimmer is activated, it allows the controlled trimming of moustache or sideburns.

Tips for the perfect shave

• It can take 14–21 days for your beard to adjust to the new shaving system.

• How much Shaving Conditioner you want to apply depends on your type of skin: wet skin might require more Shaving Conditioner. You may want to try out different scale positions.

• Hold the shaver at right angles (90°) to the skin. Stretch your 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.

Keeping your shaver in top shape

Important:

•

When the foil frame is removed, do not turn on the shaver. Shaving Conditioner may leak.

•

Always unplug the shaver before cleaning.

•

After cleaning with water, disassemble the shaving parts (cutter block and foil frame) and let dry.

Daily cleaning

After each shave, you should hold the shaver – turned on and with its foil frame attached – upside down under running hot water.

General cleaning

Occasionally you should, while the shaver is turned off, remove the foil frame, and, using the brush, clean the cutter block and the inner area of the shaver head. Replace foil frame, ensuring both sides click audibly into place. If not properly attached, Shaving Conditioner could leak.

Note

When cleaning under running water, small amounts of moisture collect inside the shaver‘s cartridge chamber. This has no effect on the shaver‘s operation and will disappear after a while

Changing the applicator
