Braun 3615 - Manual (Page 8)

4 Keeping your shaver in top shape
4.1 Cleaning
• After shaving, switch the shaver off. Press the release buttons, take off the
shaver foil (d) and gently tap it out on a flat surface (e).
• Then thoroughly clean the cutter block with the brush (f). About every four
weeks, clean the cutter block with Braun cleaning agents (g).
• Do not clean the shaver foil with the brush.
• If you have a very dry skin and you notice a reduced operation time of the
shaver, you should put a drop of sewing machine oil onto the floating cutter
and shaver foil (g).
4.2 Replacing the shaving parts
• The shaver foil and cutter block are precision parts that, in time, are subject to
wear. A regular replacement of the parts every 1
1 /
2
years or when these parts
are worn, will ensure, that you are getting the close, comfortable and quick
shave you expect from your Braun shaver.
(Shaver foil and cutter block: part no. 3600)
• Press the release buttons, take off the shaver foil. Replace the new shaver foil
in the right direction until it locks in place.
• To remove the cutter block, lift it off (g).
To replace the cutter block, snap onto the holding studs.
4.3 Preserving the rechargeable battery
• In order to optimise the capacity and life of the battery, it should be fully
discharged through regular use every 6 months approximately. Then
recharge to full capacity again. This reconditions the rechargeable battery.
• Do not expose the shaver to temperatures of more than 50 °C for long periods
of time.

Tips for the perfect shave
• We recommend that you shave before washing, as the skin tends to be
slightly swollen after washing.
• Hold the shaver at right angles (90°) to the skin.
• Stretch your skin and shave against the direction of beard growth.
• Replace the shaver foil and cutter block every 1
1 /
2
years, or when the parts
are worn, to ensure optimum shaving performance.
