and the optimum usage angle so that 
both, the shaver foil and the long hair 
trimmer are in contact with the skin.

• Move the appliance slowly against the 

direction of hair growth. Adjusting 
to the body contours, the long hair 
trimmer first raises all long hairs and 
cuts them off. Then the shaver foil 
follows to smooth away any stubble. 

• If you have not shaved for a long period 

of time, remove the OptiShave attach-
ment to allow a faster pre-cutting of 
longer hairs (B). 

• Also, for the more difficult-to-reach 

underarm area remove the OptiShave 
attachment for perfect reach. 

• Always ensure that both, the shaver foil 

and the long hair trimmer are in contact 
with the skin. 

Trimming & Styling

For precise lines and contours like the 
bikini line, lock the long hair trimmer   by 
sliding the TrimLock   to the position 
«trim» (C1).

To trim hair to a uniform length (about 
4 mm), e.g. in the bikini area, lock the long 
hair trimmer  , place the OptiTrim attach-
ment   onto the shaver head (C2).

When you are finished

After shaving, you may want to smooth 
on a little body cream or lotion. However, 
avoid using irritating substances like deo-
dorants with alcohol right away.

Cleaning

This appliance is suitable for 
cleaning under an open water 
tap.
Warning: Detach the hand-held 

part from the power supply before 
cleaning it in water.

Regular cleaning ensures better shaving 
performance. After each shave, proceed 
as follows (D1):  
• Press the release buttons   to remove 

the shaver head. 

• Rinse the shaver head and the cutter 

block separately under warm running 
water. A natural based soap may 
also be used provided it contains no 
particles or abrasive substances. Rinse 
off all foam.  

• Leave the cutter block and shaver head 

to dry separately.

Alternatively, you may clean the shaver 
using the brush provided (D2): 
• Press the release buttons   to remove 

the shaver head. Tap the bottom of the 
shaver head gently on a flat surface (not 
on the foil). 

• Brush out the cutter block and the 

inside of the shaver head. However, do 
not clean the shaver foil with the brush 
as this may damage the foil. 

Your Braun Silk&Soft comes with a prac-
tical charging holder   which is also 
very useful for leaving the shaving parts 
to dry. 
When you insert the appliance with the 
switch facing the holder and the OptiTrim 
attachment placed on the head, it snaps 
into the holder for convenient transport.

Keeping your Braun Silk&Soft 
in top shape

• The shaving parts need to be lubricated 

regularly every 3 months (E). If you 
clean the shaver head under running 
water, lubricate it after each cleaning. 
Apply some light machine oil or vase-
line to the shaver foil and the metal 
parts of the long hair trimmer. Then 
remove the shaver head and also apply 
a tiny amount of vaseline as shown in 
picture section (E).
