Safety Information

Always hold the shaver away from your face while charging. Do not submerge the shaver in water. Clean the shaver regularly and allow it to dry completely before storing. Be cautious when using the trimmer on your face. Keep the shaver out of reach of children and pets. Always unplug the shaver before cleaning or storing. Do not use the shaver if the cord is damaged or if it is not working properly. Always follow the instructions in the user manual for safe and proper use.

Setup

1. Unpacking: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Ensure all parts listed in the product contents are present.
2. Initial Charge: Before first use, fully charge the shaver. Connect the shaver to the SmartCare Center or directly to the power outlet using the provided power cord. A full charge takes approximately 1 hour and provides up to 60 minutes of shaving time. The display will indicate charging progress.
3. SmartCare Center Setup (if applicable): Place the SmartCare Center on a flat, stable surface. Insert a cleaning cartridge into the base of the SmartCare Center until it clicks into place.

Operating Instructions

1. Shaving Preparation: For dry shaving, ensure your face is clean and dry. For wet shaving, apply shaving foam or gel to your face.
2. Power On: Press the On/Off button to start the shaver.
3. Shaving Technique: Hold the shaver at a right angle (90°) to your skin. Stretch your skin with your free hand to ensure hairs stand upright. Shave against the direction of hair growth using short, firm strokes. Do not press too hard, as this can reduce the effectiveness and cause skin irritation.
4. Using the ProTrimmer: Slide the ProTrimmer up from the back of the shaver. Use it for precise shaping of sideburns, mustache, or beard lines.
5. Power Off: Press the On/Off button to turn off the shaver.

Maintenance

Regular cleaning and maintenance will ensure optimal performance and extend the lifespan of your Braun Series 8 electric razor.

Daily Cleaning (Manual)

1. After Each Use: Rinse the shaver head under hot running water with the shaver switched on. You can use liquid soap for a more thorough clean.
2. Drying: Shake off excess water and allow the shaver to air dry completely before storing or placing it back in the SmartCare Center.

Automatic Cleaning (SmartCare Center)

1. Placement: After shaving, place the shaver head-down into the SmartCare Center. Ensure the shaver is dry before placing it in the center.
2. Start Cleaning: Press the button on the SmartCare Center to initiate the cleaning cycle. The center will automatically clean, lubricate, and dry the shaver.
3. Cartridge Replacement: Replace the cleaning cartridge when the indicator light on the SmartCare Center signals it is empty (approximately every 2 months with daily use).

Replacement Parts

• Shaving Head (Cassette): Replace the shaving head (Braun 83M replacement head) approximately every 18 months to maintain optimal cutting performance.
• Cleaning Cartridge: Replace the cleaning cartridge for the SmartCare Center every 2 months.
