Charging the shaver
•
First charging: Using the power supply cord set, connect
the shaver to the mains 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.
•
From now on, the SmartLogic inside your shaver will
ensure optimal care of the battery. 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).

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 your skin and shave against the direction
of beard growth.
•
Replace the shaver foil and cutter block every
11/2 years, or when the parts are worn, to ensure
optimum shaving performance.

shaver for approx. 5-10 seconds so that the shaved
stubbles can fall out.
For a thorough cleaning (weekly), remove the shaver

clean the cutter block and the inner area of the pivoting
head. About every four weeks, clean the cutter block
with Braun cleaning agents.
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.

Clean&Charge
Braun Clean&Charge has been developed
for cleaning, charging and storing your
shaver. Clean your shaver daily in the
Clean&Charge.
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
contains a small amount of oil, the cleaning
procedure also fulfills the lubrication needs
of the shaver.
Important
•
Only use the power supply cord set
supplied with the shaver.
•
In order to avoid any leakage of the cleaning
fluid, place the appliance on a flat, stable
surface. Do not 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 leave cartridge open. Do not refill
cartridge. Use only original Braun refill
cartridge.
Power consumption:
3 W when cleaning
7 W when charging
•
Power supply: 100-240 V 2/ 50 or 60 Hz
(automatic adaptation)
•
Input voltage: 12 V
B Before using Clean&Charge
Only applies for cordless shavers:
For the first charge of the shaver, connect
the power supply cord set directly to the
shaver, charge it for 4 hours and shave at
least once.
Only then can the shaver be cleaned or
recharged in the Braun Clean&Charge.
If the rechargeable battery is discharged,
select the combined «clean» + «charge»
programme rather than the «clean»
programme alone.
Installing the cartridge
•
Press the lift button (1) to open the housing.
•
Hold the cartridge down on a flat, stable
surface (e.g. table). Carefully remove the lid
from the cartridge. Slide the cartridge into
the base as far as it will go.
•
Slowly close the housing by pushing it
down until it locks.
Replacing the cartridge
After having pressed the lift button to open
the housing, wait for a few seconds before
removing the used cartridge.
Before discharging the used cartridge,
make sure to close the openings using the
lid of the new cartridge, since the used
cartridge will contain contaminated
cleaning solution.

C Operating your Clean&Charge
•
Connect your Clean&Charge with the cord
set to the mains electricity supply.
Open the contact bow (2) by pressing the
release button (3). After shaving, switch the
shaver off and place it upside down into the
Clean&Charge (without having released the
shaver foil).
•
Select the operation mode by toggling with
the mode selector (4):
•
When the «cartridge» light illuminates
constantly, the cleaning function is locked
and a new cartridge has to be installed.
Only then, the next cleaning cycle can be
started.
•
A cleaning cartridge should be sufficient
for about 30 cleaning cycles. With daily use,
the cleaning cartridge should be replaced
approx. every 4 weeks.
The corresponding lights will come on.
(With cord shavers, only the «clean»
function can be selected.)
•
Slide down the contact bow to connect the
shaver and to start the selected programme.
If no programme is selected, the default
function «clean» will be started.
•
Do not interrupt a running programme,
as it leaves the shaver wet and not fit for
use. If interruption is needed nonetheless,
press the release button.
•
After a programme has finished, the corresponding light will go out. Prior to the next
shave, press the release button to release
the shaver.
•
When the «cartridge» light starts flashing,
the remaining fluid in the cartridge is
sufficient for about 5 more cleaning cycles.
After these 5 cycles, the cleaning performance will be reduced and the cartridge
has to be replaced.
•
The hygienic cleaning solution cartridge
contains alcohol which, once opened,
will naturally evaporate slowly into the
surrounding air. Each cartridge, if not used
daily, should be replaced after approx.
8 weeks.
•
Do not leave the appliance plugged-in
without the shaver inserted.
•
Clean the housing from time to time with a
damp cloth, especially the opening where
the shaver rests.
