GETTING STARTED

CHARGING YOUR APPLIANCE

It is recommended to fully charge your appliance before using it for the first time.
Ensure the product is switched off.
The adaptor automatically adjusts to a main voltage between 100V and 240V.
Connect the shaver to the adaptor and then to the mains.

CHARGING INDICATOR

Charge Level	Indicator
Charging	LED will show
Fully charged	LED will continue to show

Run time from fully charged is up to 50 minutes.
Charge time from empty is 4 hours.
To preserve the life of your batteries, let them run out every 6 months then recharge for 24 hours.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

It is recommended that you use your new shaver daily for up to two weeks to allow time for your beard and skin to become accustomed to the new shaving system.

Make sure your shaver is properly charged.
Switch the shaver on by pressing the on/off switch.

SHAVING

Stretch the skin with your free hand so the hairs stand upright.
Hold the shaving head so that the foils touch your face.
Use short linear strokes.

TRIMMING

Slide up the trimmer release button to activate the trimmer.
Hold the trimmer at a right angle to your skin.
To retract the trimmer, push the top rear of the trimmer down until it locks under the trimmer release button.

STUBBLE LOOK

Fit the stubble head guard to your shaver for a 3-day stubble look.

TIPS FOR BEST RESULTS

Always hold the shaver at right angles to the skin so that all foils are touching the skin with equal pressure.
Use moderate to slow stroking movements. The use of short linear motions in stubborn areas may obtain a closer shave, especially along the neck and chin line.
DO NOT press hard against the skin in order to avoid irritation and damage to the foil heads.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Care for your appliance to ensure a long lasting performance. We recommend you clean your appliance after each use. The easiest and most hygienic way to clean the appliance is by rinsing the appliance head after use with warm water.

REMINGTON-F4002AU-Style-Series-Foil-Shaver-fig-2

Remove the shaver head (pull the head up and off FIG A).
Tap out the excess hair shavings and rinse the foils under running water (Fig B, C).
Do not clean the shaving foil with a brush.
Replace the head assembly by placing the assembly on top of the hair pocket, press down and click into place.
- Lubricate the teeth of the trimmer every six months with a drop of sewing machine oil.

REPLACING THE FOILS AND CUTTERS

To ensure continued high quality performance from your shaver, we recommend the foils and cutters are replaced regularly.

SIGNS THAT YOUR FOIL/S AND CUTTER/S NEED REPLACING:

Irritation: as foils get worn, you may experience skin irritation.
Pulling: as the cutters wear, your shave may not feel as close and you may feel the cutter pulling your hair.
Wear through: you may notice that the cutters have worn through the foils.

TO REPLACE THE FOIL/CUTTERS

Remove the shaver head (pull the head up and off).
Fit the new head assembly over the hair pocket and press down to click into place.

BATTERY REMOVAL

Note: The battery is not intended to be removed or replaced under normal use. The only time the battery should be removed or the unit opened or disassembled, is at the end of the product’s useful life before it is discarded.

The F4002AU contains a nickel metal hydride battery. Once the shaver has reached the end of its life, to ensure proper disposal of the product, please take the appliance to a recycling centre, where the internal rechargeable battery should be removed by a professional and recycled separately.

Caution

Do not put in the fire or mutilate your batteries when disposing as they may burst and release toxic materials. Do not short circuit as it may cause burns.
We suggest you use local waste management centres to recycle this product at end of life.

RECYCLING

To avoid environmental and health problems due to hazardous substances, appliances and rechargeable and non-rechargeable batteries marked with one of these symbols must not be disposed of with unsorted municipal waste.
