Charging the shaver

First charging: Using the power supply cord set, connect the shaver to the mains with the switch on position 0 and charge it for at least 4 hours (plug might get warm). From now on, the SmartLogic inside your shaver will ensure optimal care of the battery. 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 15 C to 35 C. 10

Do not expose the shaver to temperatures of more than 50 C for longer periods of time.

Display

The pilot light shows that the shaver is connected to the mains. The display shows the operation mode and charging conditions of the shaver: During charging the display shows the battery capacity symbol increasing by 20% segments and the remaining charging time (flashing): First charging (4 h): The display counts down in 20 min. steps. Subsequent chargings (1 h): The display counts down in 5 min. steps. The battery is fully charged. SmartLogic inside monitors the battery and communicates Test.ok when it is still well charged. Below 10 minutes remaining shaving time, the display shows the minutes left. The moving plug symbol indicates that you should charge your shaver. If there is insufficient battery charge for a cordless shave, either recharge the shaver or shave via the lpower supply cord connected to the mains.

*The display changes to this format when the shaver is in

the Clean&Charge.

The SmartLogic inside your shaver automatically monitors the condition of the batteries as well as the charging/discharging processes and adapts them to your personal shaving patterns. For instance, if it is your routine to never let the batteries run low, the SmartLogic will recognize this, look for a pause when you are likely to not use the shaver and completely discharge and then recharge your shaver to recondition the batteries (every six months at the most, and only when necessary). For additional information, press the info key: press once: to display the duration of the last shave 11

Tips for the perfect shave We recommend that you shave before 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 11/2 years, or when the parts are worn, to ensure optimum shaving performance.

Keeping your shaver in top shape
Automated cleaning The Braun Clean&Charge takes care of all cleaning and lubrication needs of your shaver. Please refer to the separate use instructions. If not supplied already with your shaver, the Braun Clean&Charge is available at your dealer or Braun Service Centres. Manual cleaning For easy cleaning after each shave, switch the shaver off. Press the release buttons to lift the shaver foil (do not remove the foil completely). Switch on the shaver for approx. 5-10 seconds so that the shaved stubbles can fall out. For a thorough cleaning (weekly), 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 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 or if the display shows oil!, apply a drop of light machine oil onto the shaver foil. 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.* (Shaver foil and cutter block: part No. 7000. Available at your dealer or Braun Service Centres.) (* Overall evaluation from Braun users comparing their shave with new parts and those used for 18 months.)
