Refer to the power supply label for detailed specifications․ Ensure the outlet is easily accessible and avoid using extension cords if possible․ Note that content/availability of attachments may vary by model/country․ Always disconnect the power supply when not in use and inspect it regularly for damage․
First-Time Use: Preparation
Before initial use, fully charge your Braun Series 9 Pro shaver – this typically takes about one hour․ Inspect the shaver head and ensure it’s securely attached․ Familiarize yourself with the multi-head lock functionality for optimal control during shaving․
A pre-shave routine is recommended for best results; consider using warm water or a pre-shave balm․ Review the manual’s safety precautions, especially regarding supervision for children․ Ensure the charging case is properly connected and the shaver is clean and dry before charging․
Shaving Techniques with Series 9 Pro
Mastering the Series 9 Pro involves a pre-shave routine, utilizing the multi-head lock, and consistently shaving with the grain for a close shave․
Pre-Shave Routine
Preparing your skin before using the Braun Series 9 Pro is crucial for a comfortable and efficient shave․ Begin with washing your face using warm water and a gentle cleanser to remove oils and dirt․ This softens the beard, lifting the hairs for easier cutting․
Consider using a pre-shave lotion or gel, especially if you have sensitive skin, to provide an additional layer of lubrication and protection․ Pat your face dry with a soft towel, leaving it slightly damp․ A well-prepared skin minimizes irritation and maximizes the shaver’s performance, ensuring a smoother, closer shave every time․
Multi-Head Lock Functionality
The Multi-Head Lock feature on your Braun Series 9 Pro allows for precise adaptation to facial contours․ This function secures the shaver head, preventing unwanted movement during shaving, particularly around challenging areas like the chin and jawline․
To utilize this, simply lock the head in the desired position before starting․ This ensures optimal contact with the skin, maximizing shaving efficiency and minimizing skin irritation․ Unlock the head after use for easy cleaning and foil replacement․ Mastering this feature enhances control and delivers a consistently close shave․
Shaving with the Grain
Shaving with the grain – following the natural direction of hair growth – is crucial for minimizing irritation, especially for sensitive skin․ Begin by identifying your hair growth patterns․ Gently apply the Braun Series 9 Pro, moving with the grain, rather than against it․
This technique reduces the risk of ingrown hairs and razor burn․ For a closer shave, you can subsequently shave across the grain, but always prioritize with-the-grain passes initially․ Consistent, gentle pressure yields the best results and maintains skin health․
Maintenance and Cleaning
Regular cleaning is vital for peak performance․ Utilize the automatic cleaning system or perform manual cleaning, ensuring longevity and hygienic shaving experiences․
Automatic Cleaning System
The Braun Series 9 Pro’s automatic cleaning system provides a convenient and thorough way to maintain your shaver․ Simply place the shaver into the Clean & Charge station, and the system will automatically clean, lubricate, and dry the shaving head; This process removes hair residue and oil buildup, ensuring optimal performance and hygiene․
Regular use of the cleaning system extends the life of your shaver and helps prevent skin irritation․ The cleaning cycle utilizes a specialized cleaning solution (Braun Clean & Renew cartridges) designed to effectively sanitize and maintain the shaver’s components․ Follow the station’s indicator lights for guidance on cleaning cycles and cartridge replacement․
Manual Cleaning Procedures
For supplemental cleaning, or if you prefer, manual cleaning is also effective for your Braun Series 9 Pro․ First, rinse the shaver head under warm running water․ Then, apply a mild liquid soap and gently rub to remove any remaining hair or debris․ Ensure you disassemble the shaving head components for a more thorough clean․
Dry all parts completely before reassembling․ Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the delicate components․ Regular manual cleaning, alongside the automatic system, ensures peak performance and extends the lifespan of your shaver, maintaining optimal hygiene․
Foil and Cutter Cassette Replacement
Maintaining optimal performance requires periodic replacement of the foil and cutter cassette․ Braun recommends replacing these components every 18 months, depending on usage and beard density․ To replace, gently unlock and remove the existing cassette․ Align the new cassette with the shaver head, ensuring it clicks securely into place․
Proper replacement restores the shaver’s close shaving capability․ Using worn components diminishes shaving quality and can cause skin irritation․ Refer to the manual for specific model instructions and purchase genuine Braun replacement parts for guaranteed compatibility and performance․
Travel & Storage
For travel, activate the travel lock to prevent accidental operation․ Utilize the included charging case for convenient storage and power on the go․
Travel Lock Activation
Activating the travel lock is crucial for preventing unintended shaver operation during transport, conserving battery life and ensuring safety․ Typically, a combined press and hold of the power button for several seconds will engage the lock, indicated by a flashing light․ This prevents accidental activation within luggage or bags․ To deactivate, repeat the process – a prolonged press of the power button until the indicator light confirms the lock is released․ Always verify the lock status before packing or unpacking your Series 9 Pro, safeguarding against potential battery drain or damage during travel․
Using the Charging Case
The charging case, often included with models like the 9477cc, provides convenient storage and charging for your Series 9 Pro shaver․ Simply place the shaver securely into the case, ensuring proper contact with the charging pins․ Connect the case to a standard power outlet using the provided cable․ The case will automatically begin charging the shaver, displaying a charging indicator․ It’s ideal for travel, protecting the shaver and maintaining optimal battery levels․ Regularly cleaning the charging contacts ensures efficient power transfer and prolongs the lifespan of both the shaver and the case․
Troubleshooting Common Issues
Common problems include charging failures or skin irritation․ This section offers solutions for these and other issues, ensuring your Series 9 Pro shaver functions optimally․
Shaver Not Charging
If your Braun Series 9 Pro isn’t charging, first ensure the power supply is correctly connected to both the shaver and a functioning wall outlet․ Verify the charging case is properly connected, as this is a common charging method․ Check for any debris or obstructions in the charging contacts, and clean them gently if necessary․
A fully discharged battery may take several hours to reach a full charge․ If the issue persists, try a different outlet or charging cable to rule out a power source problem․ Consult the manual’s power supply information for specific voltage requirements․ If none of these steps resolve the issue, contact Braun customer support for further assistance․
Irritation and Skin Care
Experiencing skin irritation? A proper pre-shave routine is crucial․ Ensure your skin is clean and dry before shaving․ Avoid applying excessive pressure during shaving, and always shave with the grain initially, especially if you have sensitive skin․ Post-shave, use a soothing balm or moisturizer to calm and hydrate the skin․
If irritation persists, discontinue use and consult a dermatologist․ Regularly cleaning the shaver head is vital to prevent bacteria buildup․ Consider using a hypoallergenic shaving fluid or gel to minimize friction and reduce the risk of redness or discomfort․
Safety Precautions
Always supervise children when cleaning or maintaining the shaver․ Dispose of electrical waste responsibly at designated recycling points, following local regulations․
