Why has my Braun 5697 shaving performance dropped significantly?
- MMichael BlackburnAug 25, 2025
If the shaving performance of your Braun Electric Shaver has dropped significantly, it could be due to several reasons. First, the foil and cutter might be worn and need replacement. Second, check if the personal setting of shaving performance has been changed; for a thorough and fast shave, the green (intensive) setting is recommended. Third, the shaving system might be clogged. To resolve this, soak the Foil & Cutter cassette in hot water with a drop of dish liquid, then rinse and tap it out. Once dry, apply a drop of light machine oil to the foil.
