Cleaning and Maintenance

Cleaning your shaver

TO ASSURE OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU CLEAN YOUR SHAVER AFTER EACH USE.

Before cleaning, detach the handheld unit from the power supply cord before cleaning. The cutting system of this shaver was designed to be cleaned by rinsing under warm running water or by brushing.

Cleaning your Remington® branded shaver is easy.

■ Open the hair pocket by pressing the release button

and rotating away from the body of the shaver. You may blow out the stubble thoroughly, or rinse the shaver head in water. Rinse both sides of the head assembly.

At Least Once a

Week:

For more complete cleaning, remove the cutter retainer assembly from the hair pocket by turning the center knob approximately 1/4 turn counter clock- wise. Hold cutter retainer assembly as shown, and remove head by turning approximately 1/8 turn in the direction shown. Brush clean both the head and the cutter. Reassemble head to cutter retainer assembly by aligning and turning head 1/8 turn in the opposite direction.

Repeat this process

for each of the 3 heads. Clean each head and cutter set

one at a time to prevent mixing

cutter components. (These should be

kept as sets). After cleaning, place cutter retainer

assembly in the hair pocket, and secure by turning center knob approximately 1/4 turn clockwise.

Caution: Never put the shaver completely under water. Do not use any aggressive cleansing agent as this may destroy the shaver coatings.

To clean and lubricate your shaver’s cutters and head assembly, apply Remington® Shaver Saver® (SP-4) Lubricant. The lubricant helps remove hair clippings while reducing wear. A quick spray after each shave keeps your shaver operating at peak performance.

Caution: Do not remove or replace the head assembly while shaver is running or plugged into an electrical outlet as it may cause damage to the unit’s cutters. The shaver shall not be used until it has dried.

Worn or damaged parts should be replaced with Remington® branded replacement parts only.

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 without irritation. We recommend they be replaced every 12 months. Here are some signs of head and cutter wear, indicating that replace- ment is needed.

Irritation

As the heads get excessively worn you may experience some skin irritation. This would be especially noticeable when you apply after-shave lotion.

Pulling

When the cutters wear you may feel a sense of pulling and a loss of closeness when you shave. This is an indication that it is time to replace your heads and cutters.

The replacement part for models R-600 & R-650 is model #SP-27.
