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 the skin and shave against the direction of
beard growth.
• To maintain 100% shaving performance, replace
your foil and cutter block at least every 18 months or
when worn.
3 Keeping your shaver in top shape
3.1 Cleaning
• After shaving, switch the shaver off. Press the release
button, take off the shaver foil and gently tap it out on
a flat surface.
• Then thoroughly clean the cutter block with the brush
as well as the inner area of the pivoting head. About
every four weeks, clean the cutter block with Braun
cleaning agents.
• If you have a very dry skin and you notice a reduced
operation time of the shaver, you should put a drop of
sewing machine oil onto the shaver foil.
3.2 Replacing the shaving parts
To maintain 100% shaving performance, replace your
foil and cutter block every 18 months or when worn.
Change both parts at the same time for a closer shave
with less skin irritation.
