Tips for a perfect shave

1. Position the shaver at the right angle (90°) to your skin.
   
2. Stretch your skin slightly with your hand.
3. Shave against the direction of your beard growth.
   

Multi Head Lock switch (head lock)

The shaver head can be locked in five positions to shave hard-to-reach areas (e.g. under the nose).

• Slide the Multi Head Lock switch (3) down to lock the shaver head.
• Move the shaver head manually to your desired position.
• For automatic cleaning in the Clean & Charge Station the head lock needs to be released.

Precision trimmer

The trimmer can be used to trim sideburns, mustache or beard.

• Press the release button (8) and slide the trimmer (6) upwards.
  

Travel lock

The shaver can be locked to avoid unintended starting of the motor (e.g. for storing in a suitcase).

• Press the on / off button (4) for 5 seconds to lock / unlock the shaver. This is confirmed by a beep sound and the lock icon appearing / disappearing on the display.

Foil replacement

To maintain 100% shaving performance, replace the Foil & Cutter cassette (1), when the foil replacement indicator lights up (and no status segments are visible).

• To remove the Foil & Cutter cassette press the release buttons (2).
• Press the on / off button for 10 seconds to reset the counter.
• Afterwards you need to unlock the shaver (see chapter «Travel lock»).
• On some shaver models the replacement indicator will reset automatically after 7 shaves.

Cleaning

Cleaning under running water
Especially important after foam or gel usage

• Switch on the shaver cordless and rinse the shaver head under hot running water until all residues have been removed. You may use liquid soap without abrasive substances. Rinse off all foam and let the shaver run for a few more seconds.
• Next, switch off the shaver, press the release buttons (2) to remove the Foil & Cutter cassette (1) and let it dry.
• If you regularly clean the shaver under water, apply a drop of light machine oil on top of the Foil & Cutter cassette once a week.
  

The shaver needs to be cleaned under running water after each foam or gel usage!

Cleaning with a brush

Switch off the shaver. Remove the Foil & Cutter cassette (1) and tap it out on a flat surface. Using the brush, clean the inner area of the pivoting head. Do not clean the cassette with the brush as this may damage it!

C & C Installation

• Remove the protection foil from the C & C display.
• Press the lift button (13) at the rear side of the C & C to lift the housing.
• Hold the cleaning cartridge (17) down on a flat, stable surface (e.g. table).
• Carefully remove the lid from the cartridge.
• Slide the cartridge from the rear side into the base of the station until it snaps in.
• Slowly close the housing by pushing it down until it locks.
• Using the power supply (10), connect the station power socket (12) to an electrical outlet.

C & C Usage

The shaver needs to be dry and free from any foam, gel or soap residue!

• Insert the shaver in the C & C upside down, with the front showing and head lock (3) released.
• The contacts (7) on the back of the shaver need to align with the contacts (14) in the C & C. Push the shaver backwards in the correct position. A beep sound confirms that the shaver sits properly in the C & C.
• Only C & C with cleaning program selection: The C & C selects the cleaning program. It is shown by the cleaning program indicators (15c) in the C & C display (15).

Charging the shaver in the C & C

Charging will start automatically when the shaver has been inserted properly.

Cleaning the shaver in the C & C

When the cleaning indicator lights up on the shaver display, insert the shaver into the C & C, as described above.

Cleaning programs

(not with all models)

short / economical cleaning

normal level of cleaning

intensive cleaning

Each cleaning program consists of several cycles, where cleaning fluid is flushed through the shaver head.

Start automatic cleaning

Start the cleaning process by pressing the start button (16). If status light (15b) does not shine (C & C switches to stand-by after ca. 10 minutes), press start button twice. Otherwise, cleaning will not start.

Depending on your model and / or program selected, the cleaning time takes up to 3 minutes and afterwards a fan runs. During this time the status light (15b) blinks.

After cleaning, drying and charging is completed, all indicators turn off.

Removing the shaver from the C & C

Hold the C & C with one hand and tilt the shaver slightly to the front to release it.

Cleaning cartridge / replacement

When the level indicator (15a) lights up permanently red, the remaining fluid in the cartridge is sufficient for about 3 more cycles. When the level indicator blinks red, the cartridge needs to be replaced – about every 4 weeks when used daily.

After having pressed the lift button (13) to open the housing, wait for a few seconds before removing the used cartridge to avoid any dripping. Before discarding the used cartridge, make sure to close the openings using the lid of the new cartridge, since the used cartridge will contain contaminated cleaning solution.

The cleaning cartridge contains ethanol or isopropanol (specification see cartridge), which once opened will naturally evaporate slowly. Therefore, each cartridge, if not used daily, should be replaced after approximately 8 weeks. The cleaning cartridge also contains lubricants for the shaving system, which may leave residual marks on the outer foil frame and the cleaning chamber of the C & C. These marks can be removed easily by wiping gently with a damp cloth and do not impact the shaver and its performance in any way.

Accessories

Braun recommends changing your shaver's Foil & Cutter cassette every 18 months to maintain your shaver's maximum performance.

Available at your dealer or Braun Service Centres:

• Foil & Cutter cassette: 92S/92M
