the right position. 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 (B)
Regular cleaning ensures better shaving perform ance.
Cleaning indicator
The latest when the yellow cleaning light (7) shines constantly the shaver should be
cleaned in the Clean&Charge Station. During the cleaning process the yellow light will
flash. It will go off when cleaning is finished. If automatic cleaning is not done, the
yellow light will go off after some time. It will be reset as manual cleaning is assumed.
Automatic cleaning
Once the shaver is put into the Clean&Charge Station, it is cleaned automatically (see
«Clean&Charge Station (C)»).
Manual cleaning
Cleaning under running water:
• Switch the shaver on (cordless). Rinse the shaver head and the precision mode
switch 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 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 (not included) onto the long hair trimmer (2) and Foil & Cutter cassette (1).
Cleaning with a brush:
• Switch off the shaver. Remove the Foil & Cutter cassette and tap it out on a flat surface.
• Using a brush, clean the inner area of the shaver head. However, do not clean the
Foil & Cutter cassette with a brush as this may damage it.

Replacement light for shaving parts / Reset
• To maintain 100% shaving performance, replace the Foil & Cutter cassette (1), when
the replacement light for shaving parts (8) comes on after about 18 months or when
worn.
• The replacement light will remind you during the next 7 shaves to replace the Foil &
Cutter cassette. Then the shaver will automatically reset.
• After you have replaced the Foil & Cutter cassette (1), press the on/off switch (4) for at
least 5 seconds to reset the counter. While doing so, the replacement light blinks and
goes off when the reset is complete. The manual reset can be done at any time.
