Charging
Recommended ambient temperature for charging is 41 °F to 95 °F / 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 60 °F to 95 °F / 15 °C to 35 °C.
Do not expose the shaver to temperatures higher than 122 °F / 50 °C for extended
periods of time.
• Using the special cord set (12), connect the shaver to an electrical outlet with the
motor switched off and charge it for at least one hour.
• A full charge provides up to 50 minutes of cordless shaving time. This may vary
according to your beard growth.
Charging lights (9a)
The green charging lights show the charge status of the batteries. The green charging
light blinks when the shaver is being charged or switched on. When the battery is fully
charged, all green charging lights shine permanently, provided the shaver is connected
to an electrical outlet. Some minutes after completing the charging, the shaver
switches to the stand-by-mode: The display turns off.
Low-charge light (9b)
The red low-charge light flashes when the battery is running low. The remaining battery
capacity is sufficient for 2 to 3 shaves.

Using the shaver
How to use
Press the on/off switch (5) to operate the shaver:
• The pivoting shaver head and floating foils automatically adjust to every contour of
your face.
• To shave hard to reach areas (e.g. under the nose), first slide the shaver head to the
back position, afterwards move the head lock switch (3) to the back. The pivoting
head is locked at this angle.
• To trim sideburns, moustache or beard, slide the pop-out long hair trimmer (4)
upwards.
Tips for the perfect dry shave
For best shaving 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.
Personalizing your shaver
By holding down the accelerator button –/+ (6) or (7) you can adjust the shaving power
to your individual needs in the different areas of your face from sensitive to intensive.
The pilot light in the on/off switch (5) changes within the following range:
(–) sensitive shave
– light blue
– dark blue
– green
(+) intensive shave
For a thorough and fast shave we recommend the green (intensive) setting.
When switching on next time, the last used setting will be activated.
Cleaning
Cleaning under running water
• Switch the shaver on (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. The shaver shall not be used until it has dried completely.
• If you regularly clean the shaver under water, then once a week apply a drop of light
machine oil (not included) on top of the Foil & Cutter cassette and the long hair
trimmer.
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 a brush, clean the inner area of the pivoting head. However, do not
clean the cassette with the brush as this may damage it.
Keeping your shaver in top shape
Replacing the Foil & Cutter cassette / reset
To maintain 100% shaving performance, replace the Foil & Cutter cassette (1), when
the replacement symbol (9c) lights up on the shaver display (after about 18 months)
or when cassette is worn. The replacement symbol will remind you during the next
7 shaves to replace the Foil & Cutter cassette. Then the shaver will automatically reset
the display.
After you have replaced the Foil & Cutter cassette, use a ball-pen to push the reset
button (8) for at least 3 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.
