Why has my Braun 5696 Electric Shaver shaving performance dropped?
- TTammy TorresSep 2, 2025
If the shaving performance of your Braun Electric Shaver has significantly decreased, several factors could be responsible. First, the foil and cutter may be worn and need replacement. Second, the personal setting for shaving performance might have been changed. For a thorough and fast shave, the green (intensive) setting is recommended. Third, the shaving system could be clogged. To resolve this, soak the Foil & Cutter cassette in hot water with a drop of dish liquid, then rinse it properly, tap it out, and apply a drop of light machine oil once it's dry.
