INSTRUCTIONS
Getting Used To Your Shaver
As with every shaver, your shaver will improve over time. So
allow about three weeks to develop an effective 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 it your alternate between shaving methods.
To Shave
Push the on/off button locking bar
inward and push upward on the on/off
button to actuate the shaver for shaving.(Locking bar on rechargeable
models only.)
To Trim
To use the Easy-View™pop-up trimmer,
simply push the trimmer button up.The
trimmer will pop-up for use.Hold the
shaver as shown in the illustration.To
conserve battery energy (on rechargeable shavers only),it is recommended to use the trimmer only
when needed for trimming.When through using,push the
trimmer button downward to lock into the off position.
Trim Sideburns
Simply touch the comb-edge of the
trimmer to the desired line for neat,
clean sideburns.
Trim mustache
Hold shaver at desired trim line for a
quick easy,professional trim.The trimmer can also be used to trim the upper
edge of your moustache.
Shaving Tips and Instructions
For a smoother,more comfortable,moisture free shave,use
a Remington®Pre-Shave Powder Stick.For those who prefer
a liquid,use the non-greasy Remington®Pre Shave Lotion,
specially formulated with a unique suspended powder and
aloe for extra conditioning and protection.
Tips For Use
• Clean your shaver frequently.
• Always keep the protective headquard on the cutter head and keep
the trimmer in the “off” position when the shaver is not in use.
• Before using,make sure that the cutter head assembly is in locked
position.
• Wait at least 15 minutes after getting up before shaving.
• Thoroughly cleanse and dry skin prior to shaving.
• Your R-850 cord/cordless shaver should not be used strictly as
a cord-operated shaver, as continued cord only use will result in
reduction of battery life.
Operation Instructions
The MicroFlex™shaver needs no adjustments to the heads or cutters
before you shave.The floating heads will automatically adjust to the
contours of your face.It is not necessary to apply pressure while shaving...let the shaver glide lightly on your skin.This gentle touch makes
shaving easier and helps avoid possible skin irritation.
