A Shaver

Your Braun SyncroPro is supplied with a Braun
Clean&Renew™ (please see section B).

SmartLogic

The «SmartLogic» electronics inside your shaver ana­lyzes your personal shaving patterns, and then adapts
the battery care and cleaning cycles to ensure optimal
performance.

Description

1 Foil protection cap 7 Charging light (green)
2 Shaver foil 8 Low charge light (red)
3 Cutter block 9 Pilot light
4 Foil release button 10 Shaver socket
5 Long hair trimmer 11 Special cord set
6 Switch

Charging the shaver

7540

• First char
the shaver to an electrical outlet with the switch in
position «0» and charge it for at least 4 hours (plug
might get warm).
The SmartLogic inside your shaver automatically
monitors the condition of the batteries as well as the
charging/discharging processes and adapts them to
your personal shaving patterns.

ging: Using the special cord set, connect

• From now on, the SmartLogic inside your shaver will
ensure optimal care of the batteries. If, for instance,
it is your habit to never let the batteries get low, the
SmartLogic will recognize this, look for a pause
when you are likely to not use the shaver and com­pletely discharge and then recharge your shaver to
recondition the batteries (every six months at the
most, and only when necessary).

• A full charge will give up to 50 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 pilot light shows that the shaver is connected to an
electrical outlet.

The green charging light shows that the shaver is being
charged. When the rechargeable battery is fully charg­ed, the charging light flashes or goes off.
If later on, the charging light comes on again, this indi­cates that the shaver is being recharged to maintain its
full capacity.

The red low-charge light flashes when the battery capa­city has dropped below 20%, provided the shaver is
switched on. The remaining capacity will then be suffi­cient for 2 to 3 shaves.

Shaving

Switch positions

0 = Off (switch is locked)

Press and push up the switch to operate the
shaver:

1 = Shaving with the pivoting head

The pivoting cutting system automatically adjusts
to every contour of your face.

2 = Shaving with the pivoting head locked at an angle

(to permit shaving in difficult areas, e.g. under the
nose)

3 = The long hair trimmer is activated (for trimming

sideburns, moustache and beard).

+

Shaving with the cord

If the rechargeable battery is discharged, you may also
shave with the shaver connected to an electrical outlet
via the special cord set.
(If the shaver does not run immediately, charge it with
the switch on position «0» for approx. 1 minute.

Tips for the perfect shave

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

• Shave before washing your face or taking a shower,
as skin tends to swell after washing.

• The drier the skin, the closer the shaving results will
be.

• 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 cutterblock every 18 month or when
worn.

Keeping your shaver in top shape

Automated cleaning

The Braun Clean&Renew™ takes care of all cleaning
and lubrication needs of your shaver. Please refer to the
separate use instructions.

Manual cleaning

For easy cleaning after each shave, switch the shaver
off. Press the release buttons to lift the shaver foil (do
not remove the foil completely). Switch on the shaver

oil

for approx. 5-10 seconds so that the shaved stubbles
can fall out.
For a thorough cleaning (weekly), remove the shaver foil
and tap it out on a flat surface. Using the brush, clean
the cutter block and the inner area of the pivoting head.
If your skin is very dry and you notice a reduced opera­tion time of the shaver apply a drop of light machine oil
onto the shaver foil.

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.

B Clean&Renew™

Braun Clean&Renew™ has been developed to automa­tically clean and charge your shaver. It also serves as a
storage unit. For peak performance of your shaver,
clean it daily in the Clean&Renew™.

During the automated cleaning process, the shaver is
switched on and off at intervals to obtain best cleaning
results. Since the specially formulated cleaning fluid
also contains a small amount of oil, the cleaning proce­dure also fulfills the lubrication needs of your shaver.

Important

• Only use the special cord set supplied with the
shaver.

• In order to avoid any leakage of the cleaning fluid,
place the appliance on a flat, stable surface. Be
careful not to tip, move suddenly or transport in any
way if a cleaning cartridge is installed.

• Do not place the appliance in a mirror cabinet, nor
store it over radiators, nor place it on polished or
laquered surfaces. Do not expose to direct sunlight.

• The appliance contains highly flammable
liquid. Keep it away from sources of ignition.
No smoking. Keep out of reach of children.
Do not refill cartridge. Use only original Braun refill
cartridge.

• When cleaning the shaver, its protection cap should
be removed.
