Charging
Before using your shaver for the first time,
put it on charge for 24 hours.
NOTE: It may take up to 3 cycles for the
battery to reach full capacity.
To charge your shaver:
■ Slide the power button downward to the
OFF position.
■ Connect the supplied AC power cord to
the shaver’s recharge port and then to
an electrical outlet.
■ Your shaver cannot be overcharged, so
you can leave it plugged in and charging
between shaves.
■ To preserve the life of the batteries, allow
them to fully discharge every six months,
then recharge them for 24 hours.
Removing the Headguard
Before operating your
shaver, remove the
headguard, which
protects the screen and
cutter assembly. It is
important to remove the
headguard correctly to
avoid damaging the clips
that hold it to the shaver.
1. Press lightly on the top of the headguard.
2. Lift the lower rear edge.
3. Pull the headguard away from the
shaver.
! Always keep the protective head guard
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.
1. Completely retracted (down), the trimmer
is out of the way and off, for when you
want to use the screens alone. Press the
trimmer button down with your thumb to
get it into this position.
2. In the middle position,
the trimmer works
with the screens, so
the screens can get
in extra close, cutting
the longer, hard-to-
shave hairs. Push the LEFT side of
trimmer button for this position.
3. Fully extended (up),
the trimmer can
be used to trim your
sideburns and
mustache. Push the
RIGHT side of
trimmer button for
this position.
How it works
Trimmer blades work in concert with the
shaver’s dual-screen system, cutting the
longer, difficult-to-shave hairs. The trimmer
blades take the brunt of the shaver wear
and tear, so you get a close comfortable
shave, time after time.
Adjusting to your new shaver
As with every shaver, your shave will
improve over time. So allow about three
weeks to develop an effective shaving 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.
Before you begin:
■ Wait at least 15 minutes
after getting up before
shaving, to ensure the
face is free of puffiness
that may be present from
sleeping.
■ Make sure your face is
clean and dry before
starting.
■ Always use a clean, dry
shaver.
To shave
Push the ON/OFF button.
Hold the shaver so both
foils 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 flattens
your whiskers, making it
harder for them
to enter the cutting
chamber. It will also
wear out the cutting
surface more quickly.
