Manual 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.
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)
Preserving the batteries
In order to maintain the optimum capacity of
the rechargeable batteries, the shaver has to
be fully discharged (through normal use) 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.
Environmental notice
This product contains rechargeable
batteries. In the interest of protecting
the environment, please do not dispose
of the product in the household waste at the
end of its useful life. Disposal can take place
at a Braun Service Centre or at appropriate
collection points provided in your country.
B Clean&Charge
Braun Clean&Charge has been developed for
cleaning, charging and storing your shaver.
Clean your shaver daily in the Clean&Charge.
During the automated cleaning process, the
shaver is switched on and off at intervals to
obtain best cleaning results. Since the spe-
cially formulated cleaning fluid contains a
small amount of oil, the cleaning procedure
also fulfills the lubrication needs of the shaver.
Important
• Only use the special cord set supplied with
the shaver.
• In order to avoid any leakage of the cleaning
fluid, place the appliance on a flat, stable
surface. Do not tip, move suddenly or trans-
port in any way if a cleaning cartridge is
installed.
• Do not place the appliance in a mirror cabi-
net, nor store it over radiators, nor place it
on polished or laquered surfaces. Do not
expose to direct sunlight.
• The appliance contains highly flamma-
ble liquid. Keep it away from sources
of ignition. No smoking. Keep out of reach
of children. Do not refill cartridge. Use only
original Braun refill cartridge.
• When cleaning the shaver, its protection
cap should be removed.
