Cleaning
Never use water to clean the shaver.
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.
Then remove the shaver foil and tap it out on a flat surface.
Using the brush, clean the inner area of the pivoting head.
However, do not clean the shaver foil nor the cutter block
with the brush as this may damage them.
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 (9) 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: 51S)
The replacement light will remind you during the next 7
shaves to replace the shaving parts. Then the shaver will
automatically reset the display.
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.
To maintain 100% shaving performance, replace
your foil and cutter block, when the replacement light
(9) comes on (after about 18 months), or when worn.
