Warning
To prevent the cleaning fl uid from leaking, ensure

do not tip, move suddenly or transport the
station in any way, as cleaning fl uid might spill
out of the cartridge. Do not place the station
inside a mirror cabinet, over a radiator, or on a
polished or lacquered surface.
The cleaning cartridge contains a highly
fl ammable liquid, so keep it away from sources
of ignition. Do not expose to direct sunlight,
smoke nearby, or store it over a radiator.
Keep it out of reach of children.
Do not refi ll the cleaning cartridge. Use only
original Braun refi ll cartridges.
This appliance is designed for household use

Before shaving
Prior to fi rst use you must connect the shaver to
an electrical outlet using the special cord set p
or alternatively proceed as below.
Installing the Clean&Renew station
• Using the special cord set
p, connect the
station power socket 6 to an electrical outlet.
• Press the lift button 2 to open the housing.
• Hold the cleaning cartridge 7 down on a fl at,
stable surface (e.g. table).
• Carefully remove the lid from the cartridge.
• Slide the cartridge into the base of the station
as far as it will go.
• Slowly close the housing by pushing it down
until it locks.
The cleaning fl uid display 1 will show how much
fl uid is in the cartridge:
up to 30 cleaning cycles available
up to 7 cleaning cycles remaining
new cartridge required
Charging and cleaning the shaver
Insert the shaver head down into the cleaning
station. The contacts u on the back of the
shaver will align with the contacts 3 in the
cleaning station. Important: The shaver needs
to be dry and free from any foam or soap
residue!
If required, the Clean&Renew station will automatically charge the shaver. The hygiene status
of the shaver will also be analyzed and one of
the following cleaning program indicators 5 will
light up:
shaver is clean
short economical cleaning required
normal level of cleaning required
high intensive cleaning required
If the station selects one of the required cleaning
programs, it will not start unless you press the
start button 4. For best shaving results, we
recommend cleaning after each shave.

While cleaning is in progress, the respective
cleaning program indicator will blink. Each
cleaning program consists of several cycles,
where cleaning fl uid is fl ushed through the
shaver head and a heat drying process dries
the shaver. Depending on the program selected
the total cleaning time will range from 32 to 43
minutes.
The cleaning programs should not be interrupted. Please note that while the shaver is
drying, the shaver head may be hot and wet.
When the program is fi nished, the blue
indicator will light up. Your shaver is now clean
and ready for use.
Fast cleaning
Push the fast clean button D to activate
the fast clean program without drying. This
program takes about 25 seconds only and is
recommended when you do not have time to
wait for one of the automatic cleaning programs.
If you remove the shaver just after the program
has fi nished, wipe off the shaver head with a
tissue to avoid dripping.
Stand-by mode
10 minutes after completing the charging or
cleaning session, the Clean&Renew station
switches to the stand-by mode: The indicators
of the Clean&Renew station turn off.
Shaver display
The shaver display z shows the charge status
of the battery on the left, and the hygiene status
on the right. 6 dark segments are shown on each
side when the battery is fully charged and the
shaver is hygienically clean.
Battery segments:
During charging or when using the shaver, the
respective battery segments will blink. When
fully charged all 6 segments are shown. With
decreasing charge the segments gradually
disappear.
Low charge indicator:
The low charge indicator provided with a red
frame blinks to indicate that the charge has
dropped below 20%. The remaining battery
capacity is suffi cient for 2 to 3 shaves.

Hygiene segments:
All 6 hygiene segments will appear after the
shaver has been cleaned in the Clean&Renew
station. When the shaver is being used, the
hygiene segments will gradually disappear.
Once the shaver is returned to the station, the
system will automatically select the appropriate
cleaning program and restore the segments
to maximum hygiene. Given that rinsing the
shaver under tap water is not as hygienic as the
cleaning station, the hygiene segments will only
restore themselves when the shaver has been
cleaned in the Clean&Renew station.
Charging information
• A full charge will take about 1 hour and
provides up to 50 minutes of cordless shaving
time. This may vary according to your beard
growth and environmental temperature.
5-minute quick charge is suffi cient for a shave.
• 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 shaver
Personalizing your shaver
By holding down the accelerator button –/+
(e or r) you can adjust the shaving power to
your individual needs in the different areas of
your face from sensitive to intensive. The pilot
light in the start button w changes within the
following range:
(–) sensitive shave
– light blue (level 1)
– dark blue (level 2, 3, 4)
– green (level 5)
(+) intensive/turbo shave
For a thorough and fast shave we recommend
the green (intensive) setting. When switching on
next time, the last used setting will be activated.

How to use
Press the on/off switch
w to operate the shaver:
• The pivoting shaver head and fl oating foils
automatically adjust to every contour of your
face.
• To shave hard to reach areas (e.g. under the
nose) slide the shaver head lock switch
0 to
the back position to lock the pivoting head at
an angle.
• To trim sideburns, mustache or beard, slide the
pop-out long hair trimmer q upwards.
Tips for the perfect dry shave
For best shaving results, Braun recommends you
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
direction of your beard growth.
Cleaning
Automatic cleaning
After each shave, return the shaver to the
Clean&Renew station and proceed as described
above in the section «Before shaving».
All charging and cleaning needs are then
automatically taken care of. With daily use, a
cleaning cartridge should be suffi cient for about
30 cleaning cycles.
The hygienic cleaning cartridge contains alcohol,
which once opened will naturally evaporate
slowly into the surrounding air. Each cartridge,
if not used daily, should be replaced after
approximately 8 weeks.
The cleaning cartridge also contains lubricants,
which may leave residual marks on the outer foil
frame after cleaning. However, these marks can
be removed easily by wiping gently with a cloth
or soft tissue paper.

Manual cleaning
Rinsing the shaving head under running water
is an alternative way to keep the shaver clean,
especially when travelling:
• Switch the shaver on (cordless) w and rinse
the shaver head under hot running water until
all residues have been removed. You may use
liquid soap without abrasive substances. Rinse
off all foam and let the shaver run for a few
more seconds.
• Next, switch off the shaver, press the release
button 9 to remove the Foil & Cutter cassette
8 and let it dry. The shaver shall not be used
until it has dried.
• If you regularly clean the shaver under
water, then once a week apply a drop of
light machine oil on top of the Foil & Cutter
cassette.
Alternatively, you may clean the shaver with a
brush:
• Switch off the shaver. Remove the Foil & Cutter
cassette 8 and tap it out on a fl at surface.
Using the brush, clean the inner area of the
pivoting head. However, do not clean the
cassette with the brush as this may damage it.
Cleaning the housing
From time to time clean the housing of the
shaver and the Clean&Renew station with a
damp cloth, especially inside the cleaning
chamber where the shaver rests.
Replacing the cleaning cartridge
After having pressed the lift button 2 to open the
housing, wait for a few seconds before removing
the used cartridge to avoid any dripping.
Before discarding 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.

Keeping your shaver in top shape
Replacing the Foil & Cutter cassette / reset
To maintain 100% shaving performance, replace the Foil & Cutter cassette 8, when the

display
z (after about 18 months) or when
cassette is worn.
The replacement symbol will remind you during
the next 7 shaves to replace the Foil & Cutter
cassette. Then the shaver will automatically reset
the display.
After you have replaced the Foil & Cutter
cassette, use a ball-point pen to push the reset
