Key Features in Detail

Selectable Shaving Modes

The Braun Series 7 offers three distinct shaving modes: Turbo, Standard, and Gentle. You can easily switch between these modes by pressing the button below the power button. This allows you to optimize the shaver's power and speed according to your specific needs and beard density. Turbo mode increases rotation speed by up to 28.5% for a faster, deeper shave, ideal for busy mornings. Gentle mode reduces rotation speed for a milder shave, suitable for sensitive skin or lighter beard growth, and also extends battery life.

High-Performance Battery & Quick Charge

Equipped with a high-performance lithium-ion battery, the shaver provides up to 50 minutes of continuous cordless operation on a single full charge.

Artificial Intelligence Technology

The shaver features Artificial Intelligence Technology that automatically adjusts power based on your beard density. This ensures optimal shaving performance and comfort, adapting to various beard types for an efficient and gentle shave.

Setup

Before first use, ensure the shaver is fully charged. Connect the charging cord to the shaver and plug it into a power outlet. The battery indicator on the shaver will show the charging status. A full charge typically takes about 1 hour, providing up to 50 minutes of shaving time. For quick use, a 5-minute charge provides enough power for one shave.

If your model includes a cleaning station, refer to its separate instructions for setup and initial use.

Operating Instructions

  1. Power On/Off: Press the power button to turn the shaver on or off.
  2. Selecting Shaving Mode: Below the power button, there is a switch to select your preferred shaving mode:
    • Turbo Mode: For a faster, more powerful shave, ideal for dense beards or when time is limited.
    • Standard Mode: Optimized power for daily shaving.
    • Gentle Mode: For a milder shave, suitable for sensitive skin or lighter beard growth, and to extend battery life.
  3. Shaving Technique: For best results, hold the shaver at a right angle (90°) to your skin and shave against the direction of beard growth. Stretch your skin with your free hand to ensure a close shave, especially in difficult areas like the neck and jawline.
  4. Wet & Dry Use: The shaver can be used dry, with foam, gel, or in the shower. For a refreshing shave, apply shaving foam or gel before use.

Maintenance

Regular cleaning and maintenance are crucial for optimal performance and longevity of your Braun Series 7 shaver.

  • Daily Cleaning: After each use, turn off the shaver and rinse the shaver head under warm running water. You can also use a small amount of liquid soap. For a more thorough clean, remove the shaver head and rinse both the head and the underlying cutting elements.
  • Deep Cleaning (with Cleaning Station): If your model includes a cleaning station, place the shaver in the station after each shave. The cleaning station will automatically clean, lubricate, dry, and charge your shaver, ensuring hygienic and peak performance.
  • Lubrication: Periodically, apply a drop of light machine oil (e.g., Braun shaver oil) to the shaver head to maintain smooth operation of the cutting elements.
  • Replacing Shaver Parts: The shaver foil and cutter block are precision parts that wear out over time. For optimal performance, it is recommended to replace them every 18 months. Replacement parts are available from authorized Braun retailers.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your Braun Series 7 shaver, please refer to the following common troubleshooting tips:

Problem Possible Cause Solution
Shaver does not turn on. Battery is depleted. Charge the shaver for at least 5 minutes for a quick shave, or fully charge for up to 50 minutes of use.
Poor shaving performance. Shaver head/cutter block is worn or dirty. Clean the shaver head thoroughly. If performance does not improve, replace the shaver foil and cutter block.
Shaver makes unusual noise. Shaver head is not properly attached or is damaged. Ensure the shaver head is securely attached. If damaged, replace it.
Battery life is shorter than expected. Frequent use of Turbo mode or aging battery. Try using Gentle mode more often. If the issue persists after several full charge cycles, the battery may be nearing the end of its lifespan.

If the problem persists after trying these solutions, please contact Braun customer support.
