How to Use
Usage Tips
®
Please refer to your Safety Instructions
before operating your shaver.
Avoid holding the shaver at an angle so
only one head touches the skin. This
could cause skin irritation.
■ Use short, circular
strokes. Use your free
hand to stretch your skin.
This encourages your
whiskers to stand out,
making it easier for them
to enter the cutting chamber.
■ It is not necessary to apply pressure
while shaving, just let the shaver glide
lightly on your skin. Never press hard.
Pressing only flattens your whiskers,
which makes it harder for them to enter
the cutting chamber. It will also wear out
the cutting surface more quickly. A gentle
touch makes shaving easier and helps
avoid possible skin irritation.

Remington shavers need no adjustments to
their heads or cutters before you shave. The
heads will automatically adjust to the con-
tours of your face.
Removing the Headguard
Before operating your shaver, remove the
headguard, which protects the screen and
cutter assembly. It is important to remove
the headguard correctly to avoid damaging
the clips that hold it to the shaver.
1. Press lightly on the top of the headguard.
2. Lift the lower rear edge.
■ Trimmer is turned off until it is extended
for use.
■ Push the trimmer
button up to pop up
the trimmer.
Adjusting to your new shaver
As with every shaver, your shave will
improve over time. So allow about three
weeks to develop an effective shaving style
and for your beard to adjust to the new
shaver. The adaptation period may take a
little longer if your skin is sensitive, or if
you alternate between shaving methods.
■ Hold the shaver
with the trimmer
toward you when
trimming.
3. Pull the headguard away from the
shaver.
! Always keep the protective head guard on
the shaver head and keep the trimmer in the
OFF position when the shaver is not in use.
■ After trimming, pull the trimmer button
downward into the OFF position. Leave it
in the down position when not in use.
Before you begin:
■ Wait at least 15 minutes
after getting up before

Power System
■ Corded shavers can only be used while
they are plugged into an electrical outlet.
■ Use the shaver heads to trim the lower
edge of your mustache. Hold shaver at

professional trim.
■ Use the pop-up trimmer
for the upper edge of your

To Shave
■ Push the ON/OFF button to
activate the shaver for

Trim sideburns
■ Hold the shaver so all the
heads touch your face
together. This allows the
shaver to work the way
it was designed for the
closest shave and minimum
wear.
Extend the trimmer and touch
the edge of it to the desired
trim line.

Cleaning and Maintenance
To assure smooth, efficient performance, it
is important to clean your shaver.
! Important: Make sure to align the two
locating holes in the Cutter Retainer
assembly with the pins in the Head Frame
Assembly. (See illustration below). Then
tighten center screw knob to lock the
cutters into place.
Cleaning Cautions
When is it Time to Replace
Your Heads and Cutters?
It is very important to replace your
heads and cutters when necessary to
ensure a close, comfortable shave with-
out irritation. We recommend they be
replaced every 12 months. Here are
some signs of head and cutter wear,
indicating that replacement is needed.
■ The construction of this shaver is for
dry operation only. It is not water-
proof. Never put the shaver in part or
completely into water.
Daily
Brush inside the
head assembly after
each use:
■ Never clean the shaver or replace the
cutters while it is plugged into an
electrical outlet.
■ Do not use an aggressive cleansing
agent as this may destroy the shaver
coatings.
■ Do not clean or remove the head assem-
bly while the shaver is running or plugged
in, as it may cause damage to the unit's
heads or cutters.
Replace head assembly on the shaver
simply by pushing it onto the shaver.
1. Turn the shaver off.
2. Grip the head
assembly by the
three ridges and
pull it off the
Cover shaver head with plastic headguard
between uses. When removing the head-
guard or placing it back onto the shaver,
do not apply pressure to floating cutter
surfaces, as you may damage them.
Irritation
As the heads get excessively worn you may
experience some skin irritation. This would
be especially noticeable when you apply
after-shave lotion.
