REPLACING THE FOIL & CUTTERS

It is very important to replace the foil and cutters when necessary to ensure a close, comfortable shave without irritation. We recommend they be replaced every 6 months. Here are some signs of head and cutter wear, indicating that replacement is needed: · \

Irritation: As the 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 foil & cutters may be obtained from your local retailer, or directly from Remington®. Simply fill out the enclosed accessory order form
- refer to pages 9 & 10, or alternatively your order can be processed over the phone via the Remington® Service Hotline.

HOW TO REPLACE THE FOIL & CUTTERS Please refer to the specifications’ table on page 5 of this manual that lists the correct replacement part number for your shaver. Remove the foil assembly by pressing the foil assembly release buttons on either side of the head and lifting the assembly upwards to remove from the hair pocket

Grasp each cutter between your thumb and forefinger and pull upwards to remove
Snap each new cutter into the top of the drive shaft.

Note: Do not push on the ends of the cutters as this may cause damage and reduce their effectiveness.

Insert the new foil assembly on top of the hair pocket, press down and click into place.
