How do I clean a electric shaver?

For the best shaving performance, it's important that you shave with clean material. We'll explain how to clean your electric shaver in a few steps.

• Step 1. Turn off the electric shaver.
• Step 2. Unclip the shaver head.
• Step 3. Brush the head off.
• Step 4. Lubricate the blades.
• Step 5. Reassemble.

First, check if your electric shaver is turned off. A logical step, but a very important one. It may look very safe, but an electric shaver uses razor blades. You could get cut before you know it.

Open the electric shaver. Unclick the shaver head from the handle. With an electric shaver with foil system from Braun, you carefully press the sides of the razor block. Now, pull out the block until you hear it click. With a head system, this is often done via a button on the front. You'll have to use some force on the joint. Make sure you keep the blades and cap together. These will shape to each other over time.

Next, you have to clean the electric shaver's head with a brush. The brush is often included. If you've lost it, use an old toothbrush. If you're cleaning a foil system, make sure don't scrub the shaver foil with the brush. That will damage the foil.

Are all the parts clean? Then It's time to lubricate the shaver head. If you're using a cleaning spray, you spray the liquid onto the shaver foil. If you have lubricating oil, you gently apply it to the shaver foil. If you've used another fluid, leave the shaver foil in a bowl of water mixed with the fluid for a few minutes.

After you've cleaned, lubricated, and dried the interior and shaver head, you reassemble the product. With the head system, make sure you combine the cap correctly that keeps the rings together. They only fit in one way. Once the shaver head is firmly clicked onto the handle, the electric shaver is ready for use again.
