How To Use
Usage Tips
To Charge Your Shaver
Prior to using your shaver for the first time, put it on charge for 24 hours.
■Use only the charging adapter supplied with the shaver.
■Make sure your shaver is turned off.
■Connect the cord to the shaver, then plug the charging adapter into the electrical outlet. A charging indicator light will come on.
■Your shaver cannot be overcharged, so you can leave it plugged in and charging between shaves.
■To preserve the life of the batteries, let them fully run out every six months, then recharge them for a full 24 hours.
■The
Removing the Headguard
Before operating your shaver, remove the headguard, which protects the screen and cutter assembly. Simply push up from the front or the back until it pops off.
CAUTION: Always keep the protective headguard on the shaver head and keep the trimmer in the OFF position when the shaver is not in use.
Operating the Trimmer
Your shaver is equipped with a 3- position trimmer.
Use the trimmer button to extend or retract the trimmer.
1.Completely retracted (down),
the trimmer is out of the way and off, for when you want to use the screens alone. Slide the trimmer button down with your thumb to get it into this position.
2.In the middle position, the trimmer works with the screens, cutting the longer,
3.Fully extended (up), the trimmer can be used to trim your sideburns and mustache. Slide the trimmer into the top position, above the foils.
Adjusting to your new shaver
As with every shaver, your shave will improve over time. Allow about three weeks to develop an effective shav- ing 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.
To help smooth the transition to your new shaver, Remington has applied a special lubricant to the shaver’s screens and cutters. The lubricant looks like fine, white or gray powder, and disappears with use.

To shave
Push the ON/OFF button. Hold the shaver so all screens touch your face at the same time. This allows the shaver to
work the way it was designed for the closest shave and minimum wear. Avoid holding the shaver at an angle so only one screen touches the skin at a time. This will distort the screen and could cause skin irritation.
Shave with 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.
Never press hard. Pressing only flat- tens your whiskers,
making it harder for them to enter the cutting chamber. It will also wear out the cutting surface more quickly.
