Usage Tips
Please refer to your Safety Instructions before operating your shaver.
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.
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.

Getting a close, comfortable shave
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.
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.
Before you begin:

■Make sure your face is clean and dry before
starting.
■Always use a clean, dry shaver.
■Make sure the cutter head assembly is in the locked position.
To Shave
■Push the ON/OFF button to 
activate the shaver for shaving.
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.
