Getting Used To Your Shaver
Congratulations on your purchase of a premium R e m i n g t o n®M i c r o S c r e e n®2 Shaver. It will give you years and years of close, comfortable shaves. As with every shaver, your shave will improve over time. So allow about three weeks to develop an e ffective shaving style and for your skin to adjust to the new shaver.The adaptation period may take a little longer if your skin is sensitive, if you are switching from a different way of shaving, or if you alternate between shaving methods.
When you first removed your M i c r o S c r e e n®2 Shaver from its box, you may have noticed what appear to be small particles of white or gray pow­der on the MicroScreen or in or around the cutter assembly. The particles are from a coating of a special lubricant applied to the new foil and cut­ters to smooth breaking in your new shaver. They will disappear with use.
The Best Technique
It’s simple to get a great shave out of your new shaver. Here are a few tips for getting the closest shave possible:
Always use a clean, dry shaver.
Wait at least 15 minutes after rising

to allow the puffiness that most men experience upon waking to disap-

pear.
Make sure your face is clean and dry before starting.
Hold the shaver so all foils touch your face together. This allows the shaver to provide for the closest shave and minimum foil wear. Avoid holding the shaver at an angle so only one foil touches the skin. This will distort the foil and may cause some skin irritation.
Use short, circular strokes
and use your free hand to stretch your skin. This encourages your whiskers to stand out, making it easier for them to enter the cutting mechanism.
Never press hard. Pressing only flattens your whiskers, which makes it harder for them to enter the cutting mechanism. It will also wear out the foils more quickly.
Shaving Longer Hairs
Your MicroScreen®2 Shaver is equipped with a special push-up trimmer that allows you to shave stubborn long hairs on facial and neck areas or trim a beard or mustache quickly and easily. Just push the trimmer button upward until the trimmer locks into position. Stroke the hairs being trimmed lightly. To extend battery life, turn off the trimmer while you are shaving.
For a Better Shave...
To help maximize your shaver’s performance, consider using the Remington®Pre-Shave Powder Stick (SP-5). Just rub it over your beard. It absorbs moisture and facial oils, helping set up the hairs so they enter the cutting chamber more easily. It makes shaving quicker and more comfortable.
Cleaning Your Shaver
TO ASSURE SMOOTH, EFFICIENT PERFOR­MANCE, IT IS IMPORTANT TO CLEAN YOUR SHAVER. Cleaning your Remington®MicroScreen
2 Shaver is easy.
Remove the Head Assembly by holding onto the sides of the Head Assembly at the arro w s and gently lifting the assembly away from the shaver.
Tap the base of the Head Assembly lightly on a flat surf a c e . This should dislodge most of the hairs trapped within it. To guard against inadvertent damage, do not remove the Foil Assembly, except to replace it.
Next, clean the Cutter Assembly while it is still on the s h a v e r . Hold the shaver and Cutter Assembly as shown, and, using the brush supplied, lightly brush and blow the hair clippings from between the b l a d e s .
Ti p : To help reduce wear and tear, spray the foils and
Head Assembly with Remington®Spray Shaver- S a v e r Lubricant after every shave. This helps remove hairs while keeping your shaver operating smoothly.
Trimmer Care
The trimmer on your Shaver is easy to maintain.
When you clean your shaver, just brush off any clippings that may accumulate around the trimmer Assembly. Using the longer bristles on the brush supplied will enable you to get into the area between the trim­mer and the shaver.

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
®
R e m i n g t o n
MicroScreen®2 Shaver will wear and eventually re q u i re 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. Model DA-757 has a foil replacement indicator. The foil icon on the LCD display will flash when the foil is due for replacement. Some signs that your foils and cutters need replacing are :
Irritation. As foils get worn, you may notice your skin feeling sensitive after a shave, particularly when you apply aftershave.
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 order replacement foils and cutters, call 1-800-736-4648. 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 open-
ing at the top of the oscillator 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®2 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
Press lightly on the top of the Headguard.
Lift the lower rear edge.
Pull the Headguard away from the shaver.
