Braun Replacement Button Instruction Manual

Introduction

This instruction manual provides essential information for the proper identification and installation of your Braun Replacement Power Button. This button is specifically designed to replace a loose or non-functional power button on Braun shaver types 5790, 5791, 5793, and 5795. Ensuring correct shaver type identification is crucial for compatibility and successful installation.

Identifying Your Braun Shaver Type

Before installing the replacement button, it is critical to identify the specific type number of your Braun shaver. This number ensures you have the correct replacement part. While some shavers may have a "Series" number (e.g., Series 9), this is not the definitive identifier for replacement parts. Always look for the 4-digit "Type" number, which typically begins with '5'.

Locating the Type Number:

• For models with a rear trimmer: Slide the trimmer up on the back of the shaver. The type number will be revealed in the track underneath the trimmer.
• For models with a front trimmer: Slide the trimmer up on the front of the shaver. The type number will be visible in the revealed area.
• For newer models: Remove the shaving head. The type number may be located inside the shaver body, within the shaving head's receptacle area.
• Older models: The type number might be imprinted on the bottom or back of the shaver handle. This can be very small and may require good lighting and magnification to read clearly.

Installation Instructions

Follow these steps carefully to install your new Braun Replacement Power Button. Ensure your shaver is turned off and unplugged before beginning the installation process.

1. Remove the old button: Gently pry off the old power button. If the button is loose, it may come off easily. If it's stuck, use a small, non-abrasive tool to carefully lift it from its housing. Be cautious not to damage the surrounding shaver body or internal components.
2. Clean the area: Use a soft brush or compressed air to clean any debris, hair, or residue from the button housing and the surrounding area. Ensure the contact points are clear.
3. Place the metal ring: Position the small metal ring (if present from the original button or included with the replacement) into the button housing. This ring helps secure the button and ensures proper contact.
4. Insert the new button: Carefully align the new replacement button with the housing. Press it firmly but gently into place until you hear or feel a click, indicating it is securely seated.
5. Test functionality: Press the new power button to ensure it operates correctly and turns the shaver on and off.

Operating the Replacement Button

Once installed, the replacement power button functions identically to the original. Press the button to turn your Braun shaver ON, and press it again to turn the shaver OFF. Ensure the button provides a tactile click and responsive action.

Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and proper function of your replacement button, keep the area around it clean. Periodically remove any accumulated shaving debris or residue. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the button or shaver body.

Troubleshooting

• Button does not function after installation:
  • Ensure the button is fully seated and clicked into place.
  • Verify that the small metal ring (if applicable) is correctly positioned.
  • Confirm your shaver's type number matches the compatible types for this replacement button (5790, 5791, 5793, 5795).
  • Check if the shaver itself is charged and operational.
• Button feels loose:
  • Re-seat the button firmly into its housing.
  • Ensure the metal ring is properly installed to provide tension.
