When is it time to replace
your head assembly?
Because they are subject to daily use, the
heads and cutters of your Remington
® shaver
will wear and eventually require replacement.
It is very important to replace your heads and
cutters when necessary to insure a close,
comfortable shave. Depending on your shaving
technique and habits:
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
As the heads get excessively worn there
may be some skin irritation. This would be
especially noticed when applying 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.
! 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.
