Tips for the perfect shave
For best shaving results, Braun recom-
mends 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
The shaver head is suitable for
cleaning under running tap water.
Warning: Detach the shaver from the
power supply before cleaning the
shaver head in water.
Regular cleaning ensures better shaving
performance. Rinsing the shaving head under
running water after each shave is an easy
and fast way to keep it clean (A):
• Rinse the shaver head under hot running
water. You may use liquid soap without
abrasive substances. Rinse off all foam.
• Next, press the foil release buttons (3) to
remove the shaver foil (1) and cutter block
(2). 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.
The following quick cleaning is another
alternative cleaning method (B):
• Press the foil release buttons (3) to lift
the shaver foil (do not remove the foil
completely). Switch on the shaver for
