4. Setup
4.1 Initial Charging
Before using your shaver for the first time, it must be fully charged. Connect the smart plug to the shaver or the charging stand, then plug it into an electrical outlet. The Li-Ion battery provides up to 50 minutes of shaving runtime on a full charge, which typically takes about 1 hour. A 5-minute quick charge provides enough power for one shave.

4.2 Attaching Accessories
To attach the Precision Trimmer or other EasyClick attachments (sold separately), first remove the shaver head. Align the attachment with the shaver body and press firmly until it clicks into place.
5. Operating Instructions
5.1 Shaving with the SensoFlex Head
The SensoFlex swivel head adapts to your facial contours, minimizing pressure on sensitive skin. For best results, hold the shaver at a right angle (90°) to your skin and shave against the direction of hair growth. Apply gentle pressure. The AutoSense technology reads and adapts power to your beard density, ensuring efficient shaving.

5.2 Wet & Dry Use
Your Braun Series 6 shaver is 100% waterproof and can be used for both dry and wet shaving. For a refreshing shave, use it with foam, gel, or in the shower. Ensure the shaver is fully charged before wet use.
5.3 Using the Precision Trimmer
Attach the Precision Trimmer to define sideburns, moustaches, or trim longer hairs before shaving. Use short, controlled strokes for precise styling.
6. Maintenance
6.1 Cleaning
Regular cleaning ensures optimal performance. After each use, rinse the shaver head under warm running water. For a more thorough cleaning, remove the shaver head and brush away any trapped hairs using the provided cleaning brush. The shaver can also be cleaned with Braun's Clean & Charge Station (sold separately).
6.2 Replacing the Foil & Cutter Block
To maintain peak shaving performance, replace the foil and cutter block every 18 months. A worn foil and cutter block can reduce shaving efficiency and comfort. Replacement parts are available from authorized Braun retailers.
