Frequently Asked Questions - Series 1 170s1 BRAUN

How do I clean my Braun Series 1 170s1 shaver?

For effective cleaning, rinse the shaver head under hot water after each shave. You can use a little non-abrasive liquid soap. Then remove the foil and cutter block to let them dry. Never clean the foil with the brush to avoid damaging it.

Can I use my shaver in the shower?

Yes, the shaver is washable under running water. You can rinse it after shaving. However, always unplug the device before cleaning it under water to avoid any risk of electric shock.

How do I replace the foil and cutter block?

Remove the old foil by lifting it, then remove the cutter block. Insert the new cutter block and new foil (ref. 10B). Replace both parts simultaneously every 18 months maximum to maintain optimum shaving performance.

How long does the battery charge last?

For the 190s/cb model, a full charge offers up to 30 minutes of cordless shaving. The initial charging time is at least 4 hours. After several cycles, the maximum capacity is reached.

Does the shaver come with a trimmer?

Yes, the Braun Series 1 170s1 shaver is equipped with an integrated retractable trimmer. Push it forward to pre-cut long hairs or define your beard lines.

Where can I find spare parts?

Spare parts (foil and cutter block ref. 10B) are available at Braun authorized service centers or on service.braun.com. You can also contact customer service at 0 800 944 802.

What is the warranty period?

Braun offers a 2-year warranty from the date of purchase. It covers manufacturing and material defects. Normal wear (foil, blades) is not covered.

Can I shave a long beard with this shaver?

Yes, first use the retractable trimmer to pre-cut long hairs before shaving. This prevents clogging the foil and gives a smoother shave.

How do I know when to replace the blades?

Braun recommends replacing the foil and cutter block every 18 months or when shaving performance decreases. Simultaneous replacement ensures precise shaving with less irritation.

Is the shaver suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, the floating foil automatically adapts to facial contours for a gentle shave. For sensitive skin, shave before washing your face and apply light pressure.

Description

1 Foil protection cap
2 Shaver foil
3 Cutter block
4 Long hair trimmer
5 Charging light (model 190s/cb only)
6 On/off switch
7 Special cord set

Charging (model 190s/cb only)

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, connect the shaver to an electrical outlet with the motor switched off.
• When charging for the first time, leave the shaver to charge continuously for 4 hours. The charging light (5) shows that the shaver is being charged. When the battery is fully charged, the charging light intermittently blinks on and off. This indicates that the battery maintains its full capacity.
• A full charge provides up to 30 minutes of cordless shaving time depending on your beard growth.
• Once the shaver is completely charged, discharge the shaver through normal use. Then recharge to full capacity. Subsequent charges will take about 1 hour.
• Maximum battery capacity will only be reached after several charging / discharging cycles.
• If the rechargeable batteries are discharged, you may also shave by connecting the shaver to an electrical outlet via the special cord set.

Shaving

Remove the foil protection cap (1). Activate the on/off switch (6). The floating foil frame automatically adapts to your skin surface for a close, smooth shave.

For pre-shaving after a few days of not having shaved, use the long hair trimmer (4) to pre-cut long hairs. For a close, smooth shave, finish with the foil.

Trimming

Push out the long hair trimmer (a). It allows controlled trimming of moustache and sideburns. It evenly cuts and trims larger areas: ideal for shaping sideburns, moustaches and partial short beards.

Frequent use of the long hair trimmer may reduce the battery capacity (model 190s/cb only).

Tips for a perfect dry shave

For best shaving results, Braun recommends you to 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 (b):

Model 190s/cb only:

• Switch the shaver on 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, remove the shaver foil (2) and cutter block (3). Then leave the disassembled shaving parts to 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 and shaver foil (d).

Model 170s only:

• After each shave, rinse the shaver head under hot running water until all residues have been removed (b). You may use liquid soap without abrasive substances. Rinse off all foam.
• Next, remove the shaver foil (2) and cutter block (3). Then leave the disassembled shaving parts to dry.

Alternatively, you may clean the shaver using a brush (c):

• Switch off the shaver. Remove the shaver foil and tap it out on a flat surface.
• Using the brush, clean the cutter block and the inner area of the shaver head. However, do not clean the shaver foil with the brush as this will damage the foil.

Keeping your shaver in top shape

About every four weeks, clean the cutter block with Braun cleaning agents. Put a drop of light machine oil onto the long hair trimmer and the shaver foil (d).

Replacing the shaver foil and cutter block

To maintain 100% shaving performance, replace the shaver foil (2) and cutter block (3) at least every 18 months or when worn. Change both parts at the same time for a closer shave with less skin irritation.

(Shaver foil and cutter block: 10B)

Preserving the batteries (model 190s/cb only)

In order to maintain the optimum capacity of the rechargeable batteries, the shaver has to be fully discharged (by shaving) every 6 months approximately. Then recharge the shaver to full capacity.
