Charging the shaver

• First

charging: Using the power supply cord set,

connect the shaver to the mains with the switch

on position «off» and charge it for at least 4 hours

(plug might get warm).

• Once the shaver is completely charged, shave with-

out the cord until fully discharged. Then recharge to

full capacity again (subsequent charges will take

about 1 hour).

•A full charge will give up to 50 minutes of cordless

shaving time depending on your beard growth.

However, the maximum battery capacity will only be

reached after several charging/discharging cycles.

• Best environmental temperature range for charging

is 60 °F to 95°F / 15 °C to 35 °C.

• The charging light shows that the shaver is being

charged. When the rechargeable batteries are fully

charged, the charging light goes off.

If later on, the charging light comes on again, this

indicates that the shaver is being recharged to

maintain its full capacity.

trimmer

Shaving with the cord

If the rechargeable batteries are discharged, you may

also shave with the shaver connected to the mains via

the power supply cord set.

(If the shaver does not run immediately, charge it with

the switch on position «off» for approx. 1 minute.)

Tips for the perfect shave

• It can take 14-21 days for your beard to adjust to

the new shaving system.

•We recommend that you shave befor

e washing,

as the skin tends to be slightly swollen after

washing.

• Hold the shaver at right angles (90°) to the skin.

• Stretch your skin and shave against the direction

of beard growth.

• Replace the shaver foil and cutter block every

18 months, or when the parts are worn, to ensure

optimum shaving performance.

Keeping your shaver in top shape

Automated cleaning

The Braun Clean&Charge automatically takes care of all

cleaning and lubrication needs of your shaver. Please

refer to section B.

Manual cleaning

For easy manual cleaning after each shave, switch the

shaver off. Press the release button, take off the shaver

foil and gently tap it out on a ﬂat surface.

Using the brush, clean the cutter block and the inner

area of the pivoting head. About every four weeks,

clean the cutter block with Braun cleaning agents.

If your skin is very dry and you notice a reduced

operation time of the shaver, apply a drop of light

machine oil onto the shaver foil.

Do not rinse the shaver in or under water.

Replacing the shaving parts

The shaver foil and cutter block are precision parts that,

in time, are subject to wear. Replace your foil and cutter

block every 18 months and get a 25 % better shave.*

shave with new parts and those used for 18 months.)

Preserving the cell unit

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 again. This

reconditions the rechargeable batteries.

B Clean&Charge

Braun Clean&Charge has been developed for cleaning,

charging and storing your shaver. Clean your shaver

daily in the Clean&Charge.

During the automated cleaning process, the shaver is

switched on and off at intervals to obtain best cleaning

results. Since the specially formulated cleaning ﬂuid

contains a small amount of oil, the cleaning procedure

also fulﬁlls the lubrication needs of the shaver.

Important

• Only use the power supply cord set supplied with

the shaver.

• In order to avoid any leakage of the cleaning ﬂuid,

place the appliance on a ﬂat, stable surface. Do

not tip, move suddenly or transport in any way if a

cleaning cartridge is installed.

• Do not place the appliance in a mirror cabinet, nor

store it over radiators, nor place it on polished or

laquered surfaces. Do not expose to direct sunlight.

• The appliance contains highly ﬂammable

liquid. Keep it away from sources of ignition.

No smoking. Keep out of reach of children. Do not

reﬁll cartridge. Use only original Braun reﬁll

cartridge.

• When cleaning the shaver, its protection cap should

be removed.

5485458_S.4-38.fm Seite 10 Dienstag, 22. Januar 2002 10:22 10

Before using Clean&Charge

First charge:

For the ﬁ

rst charge of the shaver, connect the power

supply cord set directly to the shaver, charge it for

4 hours and shave at least once.

Only then can the shaver be cleaned or recharged in the

Clean&Charge.

If the rechargeable batteries are discharged, select the

combined «clean» + «charge» programme rather than

the «clean» programme alone.

Installing the cartridge

Press the lift button (12) to open the housing.

Hold the cartridge down on a ﬂat, stable surface

(e.g. table). Carefully remove the lid from the cartridge.

Slide the cartridge into the base as far as it will go.

Slowly close the housing by pushing it down until it

locks.

Replacing the cartridge

After having pressed the lift button to open the housing,

wait for a few seconds before removing the used car-

tridge.

Before discarding the used cartridge, make sure to

close the openings using the lid of the new cartridge,

since the used cartridge will contain contaminated

cleaning solution.

Operating your Clean&Charge

• Use the power supply cord set from your shaver and

plug it into the Clean&Charge and then into a main

outlet.

Open the contact bow (13) by pressing the release

button (14). After shaving, switch the shaver off and

place it upside down into the Clean&Charge. The

pivoting head must not be locked (switch «head

lock» position down)

• Select the operation mode by toggling with the

mode selector (15):

clean (about 15 min)

clean + charge (about 75 min)

charge (about 60 min)

The corresponding lights will come on.

• Slide down the contact bow to connect the shaver

and to start the selected program.

If no program is selected, the default function

«clean» will be started.

• Do not interrupt a running program, as it leaves the

shaver wet and not ﬁt for use. If interruption is need-

ed nonetheless, press the release button.

• After a program has ﬁnished, the corresponding light

will go out. If later on, and when in charging mode,

the charging light of the shaver comes on again. This

indicates that the shaver is being recharged to

maintain its full capacity. Prior to the next shave,

press the release button to release the shaver.

• When the «cartridge» light starts ﬂashing, the

remaining ﬂuid in the cartridge is sufﬁcient for ap-

proximately 5 more cleaning cycles. After these

5 cycles, the cleaning performance will be reduced

and the car-tridge has to be replaced.

• When the «cartridge» light illuminates constantly, the

cleaning function is locked and a new cartridge has

to be installed. Only then, the next cleaning cycle

can be started.

•A cleaning cartridge should be sufﬁcient for about

30 cleaning cycles. With daily use, the cleaning car-

tridge should be replaced approx. every 4 weeks.

• The hygienic cleaning solution cartridge contains

alcohol which, once opened, will naturally evaporate

slowly into the surrounding air. Each cartridge, if not

used daily, should be replaced after approximately

8 weeks.

Clean the housing from time to time with a damp cloth,

especially the opening where the shaver rests.
