■Every six months, lubricate the trimmer teeth by applying a drop of light machine oil one-third and two-thirds of the way along the blade. Using your finger tip, spread the oil along the teeth, and run the trimmer for a few seconds.

Replacing Foils and Cutters

Because they are subject to daily use, the cutters and foils of your Remington® MicroScreen® 3 Shaver will wear and eventually require replacement to maintain a close, comfortable shave. Depending on your shaving technique and habits, the foils will usually last six months; the cutters, one year. Some signs that your foils and cutters need replacing are:

■Irritation. As foils get worn, you may notice your skin feeling more sensitive after a shave, particularly when you apply after- shave.

■Pulling. As cutters wear, your shave may not feel as close, and you may feel your shaver is pulling at your whiskers.

■Wear-through. You may notice that the cutters have worn through the foil.

To prevent inadvertent damage to the Foils and Cutter Assembly, do not attempt to remove them unless you

are replacing them. To remove the old foil and cutters follow the instructions that come with the foil and cutter replacement package. It's always a good idea to replace the foils when you replace the Cutter Assembly.

To Replace a Cutter

Assembly That is Removed

Unintentionally:

■Hold the assembly in the middle of the "T."

■Gently place the forked legs into the opening at the top of the oscilla- tor tips.

■Do not push downward on the ends of the cutters, as you may bend the cutter, reducing its ability to operate smoothly.

■Do not remove cutters from the plastic pieces to which they are attached, as you may damage the assembly.

Removing the Headguard

Before operating your MicroScreen® 3 Shaver, remove the headguard, which protects the foils and cutter assembly. It is important to remove the headguard correctly to avoid damaging the clips that hold it firmly to the shaver.

■Press lightly on the top of the headguard.

■Lift the lower rear edge.

■Pull the headguard away from the shaver.

Cordless Operation

The TA-3070/4570/5570 shavers are designed for cordless operation and can be recharged easily. For cordless operation, just press the locking bar in the center of the On/Off button and push the button toward the head of the shaver.

Charging

Prior to using your shaver for the first time, put it on charge for 24 hours. To charge your shaver:

■Slide the On/Off button to the “Off” position.

■Connect the cord to the shaver and then to the electric outlet. The charging indicator light will glow green, indicating your shaver is charging.

■The TA-4570 charging indicator will begin to flash slowly as the shaver reaches full charge.

■Your shaver cannot be overcharged, so you can leave it plugged in and charging between shaves.

■Use only the cord supplied with shaver. The TA- 3070 is designed for cordless operation only. Plug- ging in the cord will not provide the power to shave.

The TA-4570/5570 on the other hand, comes with a special feature that allows you to shave while your shaver is being recharged. Just follow the steps above to plug in the cord. Turn on the shaver by pressing on the locking bar and sliding the On/Off button upward. Your shaver will not recharge while you are shaving, so after shaving, leave it plugged in so it can be recharged.

■The TA-4570/5570 will provide a week’s worth of

shaving after a one hour charge or a single shave after five minutes of charging.

Charging: GREEN LED appears when shaver is plugged in and charging.

Cordless: When the shaver is operating from the battery in a fully charged state, the LED will appear GREEN. The LED will gradually change to AMBER as the battery is depleted. When approximately two shaves remain, the LED will change from AMBER to RED.

Troubleshooting

■If your TA-4570/5570 shaver battery is completely discharged or the shaver has not been used for an extended period of time, the shaver may not start when operated using the cord. If this condition occurs, charge the shaver for approximately five minutes before shaving.

■Your TA-4570/5570 cord/cordless shaver should not be used strictly as a cord-operated shaver, as continued cord only use will result in reduction of battery life.

■In order to preserve the life of the batteries, they should be fully discharged every six months and then fully charged for 24 hours.

Dual Voltage

You can take your MicroScreen® 3 shaver with you when you travel just about anywhere in the world. your MicroScreen® 3 shaver features worldwide automatic dual voltage conversion providing AC current between 100-240 volts, 50-60 Hz. Just plug it in to the local outlet (you may need an adapter plug) and use as usual. Your shaver will convert automatically to the local current requirements.

The following procedures should be followed for battery removal:

■Make sure your shaver is unplugged from any outlets,so you don't risk an electrical shock.

■Remove the head assembly by gently lifting the assembly away from the shaver.

■Using a small Phillips head screwdriver, remove the four screws from the upper and lower back of the shaver.

■Pull or gently pry the shaver halves apart,exposing the battery.

■Lift the rubber Side Panels from their cradles and put

them aside.

■Hold each battery in place and very carefully slide the clips from the terminals on each batter y.

■Lift or pry the battery out of the shaver.
