One of the reasons for this is of course the less powerful motor which also contributes to a lengthier shaving session. It is one of the quietest Braun models I’ve used so far, on par with the Series 9 in this regard. For some light grooming like the situations mentioned above, it is not ideal.
Afterwards rinse it properly and tap it out. Once dry apply a drop of light machine oil on the foil. Shaver head is regularly cleaned with water but not lubricated. Foil and cutter are worn which requires more power for each shave. Hold the C&C with one hand and tilt the shaver slightly to the front to release it. After completing the cleaning and charging procedure, all indicators turn off.
Many shavers have the trimmer attached to the body that releases for use which can be very useful, requiring no removal of the blade head. However, if you do not require a trimmer then you’ll be pleased it’s not attached. Bottom Line – A surprisingly close shave that performs well daily or every two-three days.
You can clean, charge, lubricate, sterilize, dry and store your Braun Series cc automatically with this Clean and Charge Station. Look at what the system is about below image. Charging icon lights up – Need charging; battery is empty. The Philips Norelco Shaver battery LED display consisted of three bars to indicate the battery status and one need charging icon at the bottom. Please do not wipe off the water with a paper towel or cloth since the water can get between the blades and dull them.
Precisely, it’s a workaround that should allow you to clean your shaver with water without removing the cassette. It also doesn’t vibrate as much as most Braun shavers when cutting the hairs. The Braun Series s is actually quiet for a foil electric shaver. Foil shavers aren’t usually very good at capturing and cutting Braun Series 5 difficult facial hair. I used the 5018s both wet and dry, daily, every other day and I also skipped shaving on weekends to see how it copes with a longer beard. The EasyClean text is even printed right below the shaving head on the front of the razor and it’s also the first feature listed on the product page.
This is somewhat surprising since the old Series 5 had a flexible shaving head that worked really well in my experience. It took a good 2 minutes before I was confident I had cleaned the shaver. And even then I could make out some small dots of hair clippings here and there. Daily shaving will prevent hairs that grow in different directions from growing too long. While the shaver mowed these down when they were a fin stubble, once they grew they were the often missed, most noticeably on the neck and under the chin. The battery charge remaining can be seen with a quick glance of the screen.
