First use and Charging
Connect the appliance to an electrical outlet by snapping the special cord set (10) into the power socket of the shaver (9) or the charging stand (11).
Basic operating information
- A full charge provides up to 50 minutes of cordless shaving time. This may vary according to your beard growth and environmental temperature.
- Recommended ambient temperature for charging is 5 °C to 35 °C. The battery may not charge properly or at all under extreme low or high temperatures. Recommended ambient temperature for storage and shaving is 15 °C to 35 °C.
- Do not expose the appliance to temperatures higher than 50 °C for extended periods of time.
- When the shaver will be connected to an electrical outlet, it may take some minutes until the display illuminates.
Charging / low charge
The charge status is shown in the shaver display (5).
- During charging the respective charging segment (5b) will blink.
- When the shaver is fully charged and connected to an electrical outlet, all 3 charging segments will light up for a few seconds. Then the display turns off.
- The battery symbol (5c) will flash red, when the battery is running low. You should be able to finish your shave. With switching off the shaver a beep sound reminds of the low charge status.
Using the shaver
Press the on/off switch (4) to operate the shaver.
Tips for a perfect dry shave
For best results, Braun recommends you to follow 3 simple steps:
- Always shave before washing your face.
- At all times, hold the shaver at the right angle (90°) to your skin.
- Stretch your skin and shave against the direction of your beard growth.
MultiHeadLock switch (head lock)
- To shave hard-to-reach areas (e.g. under the nose) slide the MultiHeadLock switch (3) down to lock the shaver head.
- The shaver head can be locked in five positions.
- To change position, move the shaver head with your thumb and forefinger back or forth. It will automatically click into the next position.
Long hair trimmer
To trim sideburns, moustache or beard press the release button (8) and slide the long hair trimmer (6) upwards.
Travel lock
The lock symbol (5a) lights up in the shaver display when the shaver has been locked to avoid unintended starting of the motor (e.g. for storing it in a suitcase).
- Activation: By pressing the on/off switch (4) for 3 seconds the shaver is locked. This is confirmed by a beep sound and the lock symbol in the display. Afterwards the display turns off.
- Deactivation: By pressing the on/off switch for 3 seconds again the shaver is unlocked.
Cleaning
Cleaning under running water
- 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, then once a week apply a drop of light machine oil on top of the Foil & Cutter cassette.
The shaver should be cleaned after each foam usage.
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!
Accessories
Braun recommends changing your shaver's Foil & Cutter cassette every 18 months to maintain your shaver's maximum performance.
