Charging

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 shaving is 15 °C to 35 °C .

Do not expose the shaver to temperatures higher than 50 °C for extended periods of time.

• Using the special cord set (9), connect the shaver or the charging stand (10) to an electrical outlet with the motor switched off.
• When charging for the first time or when the shaver is not used for a few months, leave the shaver to charge continuously for 4 hours.
• Once the shaver is completely charged, discharge the shaver through normal use. Then recharge to full capacity. Subsequent charges will take about 1 hour.
• A full charge provides up to 45 minutes of cordless shaving time depending on your beard growth. However, the maximum battery capacity will only be reached after several charging/discharging cycles.
• 5-minute quick charge is sufficient for a shave.

Charging lights (5)

The green charging lights show the charge status of the batteries (345s/340s: 1 charging light). The green charging light blinks when the shaver is being charged or switched on.

When the battery is fully charged, all green charging lights (345s/340s:

1 charging light) shine permanently, provided the shaver is connected to an electrical outlet.

Low-charge light (6)

The red low-charge light flashes when the battery is running low. You should be able to finish your shave.

Precision setting switch 📄380s only)

For precise handling in hard to shave areas (e.g. under the nose) slide the switch (3) to the right to position 🔒 The centre trimmer and one foil will be lowered.

Tips for a perfect dry shave

For best 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

Regular cleaning ensures better shaving performance. Rinsing the shaver head under running water after each shave is an easy and fast way to keep it clean:

• Switch the shaver on (cordless) and rinse the shaver head under hot running water. 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, 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 onto the long hair trimmer (2) and Foil & Cutter cassette (1) (picture).

Alternatively, you may clean the shaver using a brush:

- Switch off the shaver. Remove the Foil & Cutter cassette and tap it out on a flat surface (picture).

- Using a brush, clean the inner area of the head. However, do not clean the shaver Foil & Cutter cassette with a brush as this may damage it (picture).

Keeping your shaver in top shape

Replacement light for shaving parts / Reset

To maintain 100% shaving performance, replace the Foil & Cutter cassette (1), when the replacement light for shaving parts (7) comes on (after about 18 months) or when worn.

Foil & Cutter cassette: 32S/32B

The replacement light will remind you during the next 7 shaves to replace the Foil & Cutter cassette. Then the shaver will automatically reset the display.
