2. Stretch your skin slightly with your hand.
3. Shave against the direction of your beard growth.
Multi Head Lock switch (head lock)
The shaver head can be locked in five positions to shave hard-to-reach areas
(e.g. under the nose).
• Slide the Multi Head Lock switch (3) down to lock the shaver head.
• Move the shaver head manually to your desired position.
• For automatic cleaning in the Clean & Charge Station the head lock needs to be
released.
Precision trimmer
The trimmer can be used to trim sideburns, moustache or beard.
ª Press the release button (8) and slide the trimmer (6) upwards.
Travel lock
The shaver can be locked to avoid unintended starting of the motor (e.g. for storing in
a suitcase).
• Press the on / off button (4) for 5 seconds to lock / unlock the shaver. This is
confirmed by a beep sound and the lock icon appearing / disappearing on the
display.
Foil replacement
To maintain 100% shaving performance, replace the Foil & Cutter cassette (1), when
the foil replacement indicator lights up (and no status segments are visible).
• To remove the Foil & Cutter cassette press the release button (2).
• Press the on / off button for 10 seconds to reset the counter.
• Afterwards you need to unlock the shaver (see chapter «Travel lock»).
• On some shaver models the replacement indicator will reset automatically after
7 shaves.
Cleaning
Cleaning under running water
Especially important after foam or gel usage
• Switch on the shaver cordless 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 (2) to remove the Foil & Cutter
cassette (1) and let it dry.
• If you regularly clean the shaver under water, apply a drop of light machine oil on top
of the Foil & Cutter cassette once a week.
The shaver needs to be cleaned under running water after each foam or gel
usage!
33
Cleaning with a brush
• Switch off the shaver. Remove the Foil & Cutter cassette (1) and tap it out on a flat
surface. Using the brush, clean the inner area of the pivoting head. Do not clean the
cassette with the brush as this may damage it!
Clean & Charge Station (C & C)*
The Clean & Charge Station has been developed for cleaning, charging, lubricating
and storing your Braun shaver.
12 Station power socket
13 Lift button for cartridge exchange
14 Station-to-shaver contacts
15 Clean & Charge Station display
15a Level indicator
15b Status light
15c Cleaning program indicators*
16 Start button
17 Cleaning cartridge
* not with all models (see display box)
C & C Installation
• Remove the protection foil from the C & C display.
• Press the lift button (13) at the rear side of the C & C to lift the housing.
• Hold the cleaning cartridge (17) down on a flat, stable surface (e.g. table).
• Carefully remove the lid from the cartridge.
• Slide the cartridge from the rear side into the base of the station until it snaps in.
• Slowly close the housing by pushing it down until it locks.
ª Using the power supply (10), connect the station power socket (12) to an electrical
outlet.
C & C Usage
Important: The shaver needs to be dry and free from any foam, gel or soap
residue!
• Insert the shaver in the C & C upside down, with the front showing and head lock (3)
released.
• The contacts (7) on the back of the shaver need to align with the contacts (14) in the
C & C. Push the shaver backwards in the correct position. A beep sound confirms
that the shaver sits properly in the C & C.
• Only C & C with cleaning program selection: The C & C analyses the hygiene status.
The status is shown by the cleaning program indicators (15c) in the C & C display (15).
Charging the shaver in the C & C
Charging will start automatically when the shaver has been inserted properly.
Cleaning the shaver in the C & C
When the cleaning indicator lights up on the shaver display, insert the shaver into the
C & C, as described above.
34
Cleaning programs (not with all models)
short / economical cleaning
normal level of cleaning
intensive cleaning
Each cleaning program consists of several cycles, where cleaning fluid is flushed
through the shaver head.
Automatic cleaning
Start the cleaning process by pressing the start button (16). If status light (15b) does
not shine (C & C switches to stand-by after ca. 10 minutes), press start button twice.
Otherwise, cleaning will not start.
Depending on your model and / or program selected, the cleaning time takes up to
3 minutes. During this time the status light (15b) blinks.
After cleaning and charging is completed, all indicators turn off.
Leave the shaver in the C & C for drying. It takes several hours until remaining
moisture evaporates depending on the climatic conditions.
Removing the shaver from the C & C
Hold the C & C with one hand and tilt the shaver slightly to the front to release it.
Cleaning cartridge / replacement
When the level indicator (15a) lights up permanently red, the remaining fluid in the
cartridge is sufficient for about 3 more cycles. When the level indicator blinks red, the
cartridge needs to be replaced – about every 4 weeks when used daily.
After having pressed the lift button (13) 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.
The hygienic cleaning cartridge contains ethanol or isopropanol (specification see
cartridge), which once opened will naturally evaporate slowly. Therefore, each
cartridge, if not used daily, should be replaced after approximately 8 weeks. The
cleaning cartridge also contains lubricants for the shaving system, which may leave
residual marks on the outer foil frame and the cleaning chamber of the C & C. These
marks can be removed easily by wiping gently with a damp cloth and do not impact
the shaver and its performance in any way.

Braun recommends changing your shaver’s Foil & Cutter cassette every 18 months to
maintain your shaver’s maximum performance.
Available at your dealer or Braun Service Centres:
• Foil & Cutter cassette: 83M
• Cleaning Cartridge: CCR

Environmental notice
Product contains batteries and / or recyclable electric waste. For environment
protection, do not dispose of in household waste, but for recycling take to
electric waste collection points provided in your country.
