Purchasing spare parts
Buy only original Braun spare parts to
ensure proper maintenance of your
shaver. Parts can be purchased at the
retailer where your shaver was pur-
chased, a Braun Service Center, or
directly from Braun via the enclosed
Accessories Leaflet.
To determine which foil (i) or
cutterblock to purchase, keep in mind
one of the following points:
1) The shaver model number
(on original packaging)
2) The serial number
(below cutterblock)
3) What your shaver looks like
(match up to illustration on spare
parts packaging).
Changing of shaving parts
Foil frame
Remove the frame
ᕧ
(while the shaver
is switched off) by pulling at the two
grooved surfaces (e). Put the new
frame onto the shaving head. Do not
press on the foil in order to avoid
damaging it.
Cutterblock
To remove the cutterblock
ᕦ
turn it
crosswise and lift it off (g). Replace it
with new cutterblock.
Parts for an automobile or boat
When recharging your shaver in an
automobile or boat use only the
special Braun charging cord
(No. 5-002-707) that is stated on the
packaging for this purpose (available
from a Braun Service Center). For
