Maintenance

When is it time to replace your head assembly?

Head and cutter assemblies will usually last 12 months. Worn or damaged parts should be replaced with Remington® replacement parts only. The replacement head asssembly for the R-9500 is SP-21.

When it’s time to replace the cutters, model R-9500 displays a cutter icon.

Irritation

!To prevent inadvertent damage to the cutter assembly, do not attempt to remove it unless you are replacing it. When it’s time to remove the cutter assembly, follow

As the heads get excessively worn there may be some skin irritation. This would be especially noticed when applying after- shave lotion.
