Inserting the batteries

This appliance operates on two 1.5 V batteries. For best performance, use and replace only with alkaline manganese batteries (type LR 6, AM3, AA, e.g. Duracell). These batteries provide a shaving capacity of up to 90 minutes approximately. Open the battery compartment and insert the batteries aligning the +/– poles. Before closing the battery compartment, make sure the cover is dry and clean.

At the end of their life, empty batteries and the appliance should not be thrown

away with the general waste or rubbish. Please dispose of them at a Braun Service Center or at an appropriate disposal center according to national or local regulations.

Shaving

The Silk&Soft system captures even problem hairs, the integrated SoftStrip stretches the skin to ensure a closer reach and the floating shaver foil and the floating longhair trimmer hug the skin, all to ensure a perfectly close shave. For a gentle shave, the EasyGlide cushion ensures smoother gliding. The additional OptiShave attachment (1) allows an extra close and comfortable shave of legs.

• Press and slide up the on/off switch to turn the shaver on. Make sure that the TrimLock (2f) is in the « position.

• For optimum shaving results, place the OptiShave attachment onto the shaver head (A). It ensures perfect closeness and the optimum usage angle so that both the shaver foil and the long hair trimmer are in contact with the skin.

• Move the appliance slowly against the direction of hair growth. Adjusting to the body contours, the long hair trimmer first raises all long hairs and cuts them off. Then the shaver foil follows to smooth away any stubble.

• If you have not shaved for a long period of time, remove the OptiShave attachment to allow a faster pre-cutting of longer hairs (B).

• Always ensure that both the shaver foil and the long hair trimmer are in contact with the skin.

Wet usage

The appliance can also be used on wet skin. Make sure that the skin is very moist to achieve optimum gliding conditions. Wet usage on sensitive skin might lead to skin irritations (e.g. reddening).

Shaving your legs with the exfoliation attachment

Instead of the OptiShave attachment, you may want to use the exfoliation attachment (6) that helps enhancing the general look of the skin surface thanks to its exfoliation pad. The exfoliation pad gently scrubs the skin to remove dead skin particles, thus revitalizing the skin. Proceed as follows:

• Remove the OptiShave attachment (1) and replace it with the exfoliation attachment (6).

• When guiding the appliance slowly against the direction of hair growth, make sure that the long hair trimmer, the shaver foil and exfoliation pad are in contact with the skin.

Shaving and styling the underarm and bikini area

In these sensitive areas, make sure that you always shave on stretched skin in order to avoid injuries (B). Please take special care if the skin surface is uneven or has skin tags. Make sure not to touch them with the long hair trimmer.

Shaving the underarm and bikini area: Remove the OptiShave attachment for a perfect reach. Always stretch your skin when shaving.
