To get the best performance out of your
Smooth&Silky®Titanium Shaver,daily
cleaning is recommened.Just click the
shaver into the base and press the CLEAN
button, and the system will automa tically
take itself through the cleaning and
lubricating process.

During cleaning,the system turns the
shaver on and off while it jet cleans the
shaver head in a specially formulated
cleaning/lubricating fluid. The yellow light
flashes through the entire 25-minute
cleaning cycle and glows steadily when
cleaning is completed.The system then
automatically enters charging mode. Once
your shaver has been fully cleaned and
charged, the system shuts itself off, making
it an ideal storage unit for your shaver
between uses.

The cleaning solution will provide about 25
cleanings under normal circumstances.Like
any liquid, the solution is subject to evapo­ration, especially in hot weather,so the
number of cleanings you get may vary.You
can minimize evaporation by keeping the
cleaning base and the solution out of direct
sunlight.

Cleaning Cautions

■ Use only the power supply cord supplied

with this product.

■ To prevent the cleaning solution from

spilling, make sure to keep the cleaning
base on a flat surface, and be careful
not to tip, jolt, or transport the base
when it is filled. It’s a good idea to
avoid placing the unit on polished,
lacquered, or an y other surface that is
susceptible to damage by isopropyl
alcohol, just in case the unit does get
bumped and its contents spills out.

■ Do not place the cleaning base in an

enclosed area,like a cabinet, unless it is
empty.Always operate and store it in a
well ventilated area. Do not store it over
radiators.

■ The cleaning base contains highly

flammable liquid. Keep it a way from
sources of ignition. Do not smoke near
the cleaning base.Keep out of reach of
children. Discard cleaning solution bottle
after contents have been poured into the
cleaning base.

■ Do not block fan area on the cleaning

base.

Before using read the important safety
instruction section in front of the manual.

Charging

Your new Smooth&Silky® Titanium should
be charged for 24 hours before it can be
used for the first time. It can be charged in
the cleaning base or by plugging the cord
into the shaver directly.

Preparing the System

Adding the cleaning solution:

1. Press the latch buttons on the sides

of the cleaning base and lift off the top
section.You will
need to keep the
buttons pressed in
as you lift.

2. The cleaning solu­tion tank is in the
bottom section.
Remove the filter
from the tank and
set aside.

3. Pour the bottle of
cleaning solution
into the base of the
unit through the
opening where the
filter was removed.
Fill the tank to the
bottom of the fill
tab.

4. Return the filter
back to its original
position.

NOTE: It is important to make sure the filter
is in place to keep the unit operating
properly.The filter collects hair clippings
and debris that could permanently clog the
system and render it inoperable. Make sure
to replace the filter whenever you replace
the cleaning solution.

5. Return the top section of the cleaning
base by lining up the three tall posts
with the three holes in the tank. Push
down the top until the two latches click
into place.

6. You can dispose of the cleaning solution
bottle and cap with your normal trash, or
recycle where local ordinances apply.

Operating the
Charging/Cleaning System

Plug the power cord into the cleaning base
and then into an electrical outlet.

Remove the shaver’s clear plastic head
guard and place the shaver into the unit,
head side down. Push the shaver down and
slide its “tail”toward the “neck” of the
base until it clicks into place.

Charging

Your shaver automatically
begins to recharge as soon
as it clicks into place in
the cleaning base.While it
is charging, the green indi­cator light will flash; when
it is fully charged the
green light will stop blink­ing and glow steadily.

How to Use

Cleaning

To activate cleaning mode, simply press the
CLEAN button on the cleaning base.The
yellow indicator light flashes through the
entire cleaning cycle,which lasts approxi­mately 25 minutes.When the cleaning
cycle has been completed, the yellow light
will stop blinking and glow steadily.The
unit then returns to charging mode.

! Wait until the cleaning cycle has finished

before removing the shaver from the base.
If the shaver is removed during the clean­ing cycle it will be covered with the special
cleaning/lubricating solution and will be
unusable.

Solution levels

The cleaning solution will slowly evaporate
with use. When the solution levels get low,
the red replacement indicator light will
begin to flash. This means you have
enough cleaning solution left for approxi­mately 5 more cleanings. If the red light
stops blinking and glows steadily,the unit
will not operate until the solution and filter
have been replaced.

Replacing the Filter and Solution

Remington® cleaning solution and filters
were specially designed for the WDF­7000CS.The cleaning solution contains a
high percentage of alcohol and a special oil
that lubricates your shaver each time it is
cleaned.The filter is specially designed to
collect hair debris to keep solution clean.

To refill the cleaning solution and replace
the filter,follow the steps for "Preparing the
System" above. But before replacing the
top of the unit, rinse out the tank with fresh
water and allow it to air dry to remove any
sediment.

Wipe off the base periodically with a damp
cloth and remove any hair debris that has
collected where the shaver sits.

! To avoid damage to the cleaning system,

use only Remington® special cleaning
solution. The Remington® replacement
solution and filter,model #CC-100, is sold
at many major retailers and online at
www.remington-products.com.It can also
be ordered by phone at 800-736-4648 in
the U.S. or 800-268-0425 in Canada.

To Charge Your Shaver

(out of cleaning base)

The WDF-7000CS can also be recharged
by plugging the cord into the shaver
directly.

■ Make sure your shaver is turned off.

■ Use only the charging adapter supplied

with the shaver.

■ Connect the cord to the shaver, then
plug the charging adapter into the
electrical outlet.The shaver’s charging
indicator will light.

■ Your shaver cannot be overcharged, so
you can leave it plugged in and charging
between shaves.

■ To preserve the life of the batteries,let
them fully run out every six months,
then recharge them for a full 24 hours.

NOTE: If your shaver battery is completely
discharged or the shaver has not been
used for a long time, charge the sha ver
for approximately one to two hours before
shaving.After done charge for 16 hours
for full charge.

WDF-7000_IB 8/28/06 9:59 AM Page 8

Using shaver with soap or foam lather

When using soap or foam lather,the shaver
will glide smoothly over the skin, cleansing
away oil residue while at the same time
leaving skin soft and smooth.

Apply the soap or foam generously to the
skin. Do not use skin lotion, nourishing
cream, or shaving cream of the non­lathering type.

Adjusting to your new shaver

As with every shaver,your shave will
improve over time. So allo w 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, or if
you alternate between shaving methods.

To help smooth the transition to your new
shaver,a special lubricant has been applied
to the shaver’s screens and cutters.The
lubricant looks like fine, white or gray
powder,and disappears with use.

To shave

Push the ON/OFF button.

Hold the shaver so
both screens touch your skin at the same
time.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 screen
touches the skin at a time.This will distort
the screen and could cause skin irritation.

Never press hard. Pressing only fla ttens
your hairs, making it harder for them
to enter the cutting chamber.It will also
wear out the cutting surface more quickly.

Usage Tips

Removing the Headguard

Before operating your shaver,remove the
headguard, which protects the screen and
cutter assembly.Simply push up from the
front or the back until it pops off.

! Always keep the protective head guard on

the shaver head and keep the shaver in the
OFF position when the shaver is out of the
cleaning base and not in use.

Note:

In case of accidental separation of
shaver head:
To reattach head, hold in the fully open posi­tion, direct one of the two hinge pins on the
shaver into the corresponding slotted hole on
the head assembly,then swing the opposite
hinge pin into place.

service at 800-736-4648.

Maintenance

Replacing Screens and
Cutters

When is it time to replace your screens
and cutters?

Because they are subject to daily use, the
screens and cutters of your shaver will
wear and eventually require replacement to
maintain a close,comfortable shave. It is
very important to replace your screens and
cutters when necessary to ensure a close,
comfortable shave without irritation.

Depending on your shaving technique and
habits, the screens will usually last 6
months; the cutters, 12 months. If you are
replacing the cutters, it’s a good idea to
replace the screens at the same time.

Here are some signs that your screens
and cutters need replacing:

Irritation: As screens get worn, you may
notice that your skin feels more sensitive
after a shave.
Pulling: As cutters wear, your shave may
not feel as close and you may feel your
shaver is “pulling”the hairs.
Wear-through:You may notice that the
cutters have worn through the screens.
To prevent inadvertent damage to the cut­ters and screens, do not a ttempt to remove
them from the head assembly unless you
are replacing them. Removal instructions
are included with the cutter and screen
replacement packages.

To replace a cutter assembly that is
removed unintentionally:

1. Hold the cutter in the middle.The blades

will not cut your fingers, so no special
handling techniques are necessary.

2. Align the cutter so

the little bar on the
bottom meets the
opening in the clip.

3. Press down on the

center of the cutter
until it snaps into
place. Do not push do wn on the ends of
the cutter,as you may bend the cutter,
reducing its ability to cut cleanly.

4. Do not separate the cutter’s blades from

the plastic pieces they are attached to,
as this may damage the assembly.

The replacement part for this shaver is
model SP-130 (screens) and SP-132
(screens and cutters).
