Cleaning
This appliance is suitable for cleaning
under an open water tap.
Warning: Detach the hand-held part
from the power supply before cleaning it in
water.
Regular cleaning ensures better shaving
performance. Rinsing the shaving head after
each shave under running water is an easy and
fast way to keep it clean:
• Switch the shaver on (cordless) and rinse
the shaving head under hot running water. A
natural based soap may also be used
provided it contains no particles or abrasive
substances. Rinse off all foam and let the
shaver run for a few more seconds.
• Next, switch off the shaver, remove the
shaver foil and the cutter block. Then leave
the disassembled shaving parts to dry.
Alternatively, you may clean the shaver using
the brush provided:
• Switch off the shaver. Remove the shaver
foil.
• Using the brush, clean the cutter block and
the inner area of the shaver head. However,
do not clean the shaver foil with the brush as
this may damage the foil.
Keeping your shaver in top
shape
About every four weeks, clean the cutter block
with Braun cleaning agents. Put a drop of light
machine oil onto the long hair trimmer and the
shaver foil.
Replacement light for shaving parts / Reset
To maintain 100% shaving performance,
replace your foil and cutter block, when the
replacement light for shaving parts (8) comes on
(after about 18 months) or when worn.
Change both parts at the same time for a closer
shave with less skin irritation.
(Shaver foil and cutter block: 5000 series)
The replacement light will remind you during
the next 7 shaves to replace the shaving parts.
Then the shaver will automatically reset the
display.
After you have replaced the shaving parts (foil
and cutter block), use a ball-pen to push the
reset button (9) 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.
Preserving the batteries
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. Do not expose the shaver to
temperatures higher than 50°C for extended
periods of time.
