II Exfoliation
Exfoliation tips
The exfoliation brush (10a) has been developed
for full body usage, especially for legs, arms and
décolletage. It has not been designed for usage
in the face. The gentle brushing action with more
than 3000 micro-vibrations per minute effectively
removes dry skin cells for a visibly improved skin
appearance.
You can use the exfoliation brush on a weekly
basis on dry or wet skin during your shower
routine.
However, when using it in the bathtub, do not
immerse it fully in water since this will not provide
optimal exfoliation results.
Using the brush on wet skin provides 4 times
better exfoliation results than a manually applied
cosmetic exfoliation product alone.
For best exfoliation results, extra comfort and a
pampering experience, we recommend to use
the brush on wet skin with your preferred body
scrub or shower gel.
How to exfoliate
Click the exfoliation brush (10a) onto to the brush
adapter (10).
Click the brush adapter onto the appliance.
A Select speed «I» for sensitive skin areas, speed
«II» for normal skin.
B Slowly guide the exfoliation brush in circular
movements over your skin to gently refine it.
Avoid holding the brush on the same skin area
for prolonged time. Do not use the exfoliation
brush on your face.
The regular use of the exfoliation brush (e.g.
once a week) helps minimizing the risk of in-
grown hairs: Dead skin cells are removed so
that fine, re-growing hairs can easily get
through to the skin surface. We recommend
that you exfoliate at least 1–2 days before you
want to epilate.
C Cleaning the exfoliation brush
After use, rinse the exfoliation brush under
running water.
If needed, you may use some liquid soap to
thoroughly clean it.
Shake the brush to remove excess water and
leave it to dry.
Attach the protective cover (10b) before storing
the brush.
D Replacing the exfoliation brush
With weekly use, we recommend that you
replace the brush unit (10a) after 12 months.
Brush refills (ref. no. 79 Spa) are available from
your retailer or Braun Service Centres or via
www.service.braun.com.
III Shaving
With the shaver head (11) attached, use the
appliance on dry skin only.
How to shave
•
Click on the shaver head.
•
Make sure the trim/shave selector is in the
« »
position.
•
Select speed «II».
For best results, always make sure that both, the
shaver foil (b) and the trimmer (c) are in contact
with the skin (A). Keeping your skin stretched (B),
slowly move the appliance against the direction of
hair growth. The trimmer first raises all long hairs
and cuts them off. Then the flexible foil follows
to smooth away any stubble. When shaving or
trimming in sensitive areas, make sure that you
always keep your skin stretched to avoid injuries.
Contour trimming
For trimming precise line and contours, lock the
long hair trimmer by sliding the trim/shave selector
(e) to the position « » (C1).
Pre-cutting hair
If you choose to pre-cut your hair to the ideal
length for epilation, place the trimmer cap (11a)
onto the shaver head. Slide the trim/shave
selector to the « » position.
Hold the appliance with the trimmer cap lying flat
on the skin. Guide it with the comb tips against
the hair growth (C2).
Since hairs usually grow in various directions,
guide the appliance slightly diagonally or in different
directions in order to achieve best results.
Cleaning the shaver head
Cleaning with the cleaning brush (D1)
•
Press the release buttons (11d) to remove the
shaver head. Tap the bottom of the shaver head
gently on a flat surface (not on the foil).
•
Brush out the cutter block and the inside of the
shaver head. However, do not clean the shaver
foil with the brush as this may damage the foil.
Cleaning with water (D2)
Press the release buttons (d) to remove the
shaver head. Rinse the shaver head and the cutter
block separately under running water. Leave the
cutter block and the foil frame to dry separately
before reattaching them.
Keeping your shaver head attachment in top
condition
•
The shaving parts need to be lubricated
regularly every 3 months. If you clean the shaver
head under running water, please lubricate it
after every cleaning.
•
Apply some light machine oil or vaseline to the
shaver foil and the metal parts of the long hair
trimmer (E). Then remove the shaver head and
also apply a tiny amount of vaseline as shown in
picture.
•
The shaver foil and the cutter block are precision
parts that wear out with time. To maintain
optimal shaving performance, replace your foil
and cutter block when you notice a reduced
