ignore the electronic indicators as they are in “start-up cycle”.

power outlet. Check to ensure that the shaver is OFF. The Charging Indicator Light will glow

the shaver stored away if it will not be used for an extended period of time (2-3 months).

TIPS FOR BEST RESULTS
• Your Remington Power Series WETech shaver is waterproof. You may use shaving foam or
cream with your shaver. You may also shave in the shower.
• Always hold the shaver at a right angle to the skin so that all three heads are touching the
skin with equal pressure.
• Stretch skin with the free hand so hairs stand upright, making it easier for them to enter the
cutting chamber.
• Use moderate to slow, circular stroking movement. The use of short, circular motions in
stubborn areas may obtain a closer shave, especially along the neck and chin line.
• Do not pres s hard against the skin to avoid skin irritation and/or damage to the rotar y heads.
**We recommend that you use your new shaver daily for up to four weeks to allow time for your
hair and skin to become accustomed to the new shaving system* *

REPLACING YOUR HEADS & CUTTERS
It is very important to replace your head and cutters when necessar y to ensure a close,
comfor table shave without irritation. We recommend they be replaced every 12 months. Here
are some signs of head and cutter wear, indicating that replacement is needed:
• Irritation: As t he heads get excessively worn you may experience some skin irritation. This
would be especially noticeable when you apply moisturizing 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.
Replacement heads & cut ters may be obtained from your local retailer, or directly from
Remington®. Simply fill out the enclosed accessory order form or alternatively your order can
be proces sed over the phone via the Remington® Service Hotline - refer to page 8.
