Charging

Recommended ambient temperature for charging is 41 °F to 95 °F / 5 °C to 35 °C. The battery may not charge properly or at all under extreme low or high temperatures. Recommended ambient temperature for shaving is 60 °F to 95 °F / 15 °C to 35 °C. Do not expose the shaver to temperatures higher than 122 °F / 50 °C for extended periods of time.

• Using the special cord set w, connect the shaver to an electrical outlet with the motor switched off and charge it for at least one hour.

• A full charge provides up to 50 minutes of cordless shaving time. This may vary according to your beard growth.

Shaver display

The shaver display 9 shows the charge status of the battery. During charging or when using the shaver, the respective green charge status will blink. When the battery is fully charged the green charge status will light up continuously, provided the shaver is connected to an electrical outlet.

Some minutes after completing the charging, the shaver switches to the stand-by-mode: The display turns off.

The red

indicator ﬂ ashes when the battery is running low, provided the shaver is switched on. The remaining capacity will then be sufﬁ cient for 2 to 3 shaves.

Using your shaver

Personalizing your shaver

With the (–) 6 and (+) 7 buttons you can choose the best setting for shaving different areas of your face and as per your speciﬁ c needs. The different settings are indicated by the pilot light incorporated in the on/off switch

• dark blue (powerful shave)

• light blue (normal)

• white (for a thorough comfortable shave in

sensitive areas of your face such as neck)

For a thorough and fast shave we recommend the (+) setting. When switching on next time, the last used setting will be activated.

Tips for the perfect dry shave

For best shaving results, Braun recommends you to 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 direc-

tion of your beard growth.
