Cleaning
Always unplug the appliance before cleaning.
Regular cleaning ensures better shaving 
performance. After each shave, 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. 
• Then press the release buttons, lift the
shaver foil off and pull the cutter block out. 
Then leave the disassembled shaving parts 
to dry.
Alternatively, you may clean the shaver using 
the brush provided:
• Switch the shaver off. Press the release 
buttons and lift shaver foil off.
• 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.
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.
(Shaver foil and cutter block: part no. 5000/
6000) 
Subject to change without notice.
This product conforms to the EMC-
Directive 89/336/EEC and to the Low 
Voltage Regulation 73/23 EEC.
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 cutterblock every 
18 month or when worn.
