tip and gently press downward in center of cutter until cutter

When Is It Time to Replace
Your Foil and Cutter?
It is very important to replace your foil and cutter when necessary to ensure a close, comfortable shave without irritation.
We recommend that the foil be replaced every 6 months and
the cutter be replaced every 12 months. Here are some signs
of foil and cutter wear, indicating that replacement is needed.
IRRITATION: As the foil gets excessively worn there may be
some skin irritation. This would be especially noticed when
applying After Shave lotion. When the cutter wears, 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 cutter
and foil. Visually check for any signs that the cutter has worn
through the foil. It is always best when replacing the cutter to
replace the foil at the same time.
Remington Pre-Shave Powder Stick
Absorbs moisture and facial oils...shaver glides easily over
your skin. Sets up beard for a smooth, close shave. Makes
shaving quicker and more comfortable.
Remington Shaver Saver Lubricant
A spray to clean and lubricate your shavers’cutters and head
assembly. Helps remove hair chips while it reduces wear. Just
a quick spray after each shave keeps your shaver operating at
peak performance.
