Please refer to your Safety Instructions
before operating your shaver.
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.
ON/OFF Switch
To activate the shaver, press in the locking
bar while pushing the power button up.

Usage Tips
Getting a close,
comfortable shave
Remington shavers need no adjustments to
their heads or cutters before you shave. The
heads will automatically adjust to the con-
tours of your face.
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.
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.
■ Make sure the cutter head
assembly is in the locked position.
To Shave
■ Push the ON/OFF button to
activate the shaver for
shaving.
■ Hold the shaver so all the
heads touch your face
together. 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 head touches the skin. This
could cause skin irritation.
■ Use 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.
■ It is not necessary to apply pressure
while shaving, just let the shaver glide
lightly on your skin. Never press hard.
Pressing only flattens your whiskers,
which makes it harder for them to enter
the cutting chamber. It will also wear out
the cutting surface more quickly. A gentle
touch makes shaving easier and helps
avoid possible skin irritation.
To Trim
Trim mustache
■ Use the shaver heads to trim the lower
edge of your mustache. Hold shaver at
desired trim line for a quick, easy,
professional trim.
■ Use the pop-up trimmer
for the upper edge of your
mustache. Extend the
trimmer and touch the
edge of it to the desired
line.
Trim sideburns
Extend the trimmer and touch
the edge of it to the desired
trim line.
