4.3 Shaving with the cord
If the cell unit is discharged, you may also shave
with the shaver connected to the mains
(100 - 240 V
Q
). (If the shaver should not run
immediately, charge it with the switch on position
«0» for approx. 1 minute.)
Tips for the perfect shave
• We recommend to 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.

• After shaving, switch the shaver off. Press the
release button, take off the triple shaving frame
and gently tap it out on a flat surface.
• Then thoroughly clean the duo cutter block
with the brush as well as the inner area of the
pivoting head.
• A cleaning symbol appearing on the LCD display is
supposed to remind you to thoroughly clean your
shaver.
• About every four weeks, clean the duo cutter block
with Braun cleaning agents.
5.2 Changing the shaving parts

you should replace the triple shaving frame or

• The green charging light shows that the shaver is
connected to the mains.
• The capacity of the cell unit is indicated by 20 %
segments on the LCD display.
When all segments are visible on the LCD display,
the cell unit is fully charged and the green charging
light goes off.
A full charge will give up to 60 minutes of cordless
shaving depending on your beard growth.
However, the maximum capacity will only be
reached after several charging/discharging cycles.
• As of 9 minutes remaining capacity, the LCD
displays the minutes left.
If the shaver is switched on, the red light is
flashing to remind you to recharge the cell unit.
The red light goes off as soon as the capacity
is down at «0».
