Braun Series 5 Questions & Answers
How do i use the smaller razor on the back is it supposed to slide off if not how do i turn it on
I think you charge it up with it switched on
It's a trimmer for sideburns and long hairs.. Press the small button in the middle and slide upwards whilst the main razor is running. They both operate at the same time off the one motor.
Hi can I just purchase station pod because it got dropped

Should this shaver give a smooth finish
Yes. It should. I know that it can. But it doesn’t. It’s patchy and inconsistent. Some areas I found were completely smooth. And some it didn’t even touch. My advice, go back to razors.
How do you turn the lock light off on the Braun S5?
Hi Myrna - I’m not quite sure what you mean by lock light? If you mean locking the head in position, there is a switch right where your thumb naturally rests. Pick up the razor so the power button is facing you and just rest your thumb down where it would naturally fall. That’s the switch right there. To be more specific, it’s directly above the power button. I hope that helps :-)
I have a Braun S5 and I don't know how to turn the lock light off?
Shaver keeps beeping and won't stop until battery flat. It is 26 months old.
I purchased this electric shaver yesterday. Can you purchase a charging stand for this. I’m in Sydney. Thanks in anticipation. Peter
How much warranty you get on the braun series 5 cheers
Can I use my 5020s with shaving foam?
Hi Gordon, what I have read in other forums and from experience, a small amount of shaving gel works well. It’s a bit more of a clean up than a dry shave but it’s less irritating IMO. Cheers
Gordon, yes you can use shaving foam to 'wet' shave with the 5020. Foam will make for a smoother shave, but will use more battery power than a dry shave. When using foam, you will need to clean the shaver more thoroughly, to make sure you remove all of the foam from the foil & shaver head.
I Agree with Kev, Foam Makes the Cleaning Much Harder, Stopped using it
the razor is beeping and showing a "locked" feature.. can can i fix this?
You can, but it would require reading the instruction manual.
Press start button for 3 seconds to unlock or lock the travel lock. I was stuck for this info as it was not in the manual.
my 10 year old Braun series 5 seems to work well in-so far as the motor operates the mechanics. However even with brand new foils I can no longer get an acceptable shave.
Any ideas ?
Being a total cynic as far as electric shavers are concerned, the only advice I could offer is to switch to disposable razors as I did.
That is exactly what I have done. I try to ignore the blood.
If you both hate electric shaving so much, why on Earth don't you purchase a good wet razor, there are quite a lot to choose from, on the market. My three or four attempts of using a disposable razor has been deadly and should only be used as a last resort.
