C & C Usage

Important: The shaver needs to be dry and free from any
foam, gel or soap r

• 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

esidue!

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.

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

ont to release it.

fr

Cleaning cartridge / replacement

When the level indicator (15a) lights up permanently red, the
r

emaining 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.
