Cleaning and Maintenance
When is it Time to Replace
Your Heads and Cutters?
I
t is very important to replace your
heads and cutters when necessary
to ensure a close, comfortable shave
without irritation. We recommend
they be replaced every 12 months.
Here are some signs of head and
cutter wear, indicating that replace-
ment is needed.
Irritation
As the heads get excessively worn you
may experience some skin irritation.
This would be especially noticeable
when you apply after-shave 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.
The replacement part for models
R-600 & R-650 is model #SP-27.

Repeat this process
for each of the 3
heads. Clean each
head and cutter set
one at a time to
prevent mixing
cutter components.
(These should be
kept as sets). After
cleaning, place
cutter retainer
assembly in the hair pocket, and
secure by turning center knob
approximately 1/4 turn clockwise
.
Caution:
Never put the shaver
completely under water. Do not use
any aggressive cleansing agent as
this may destroy the shaver coatings
.
■
To clean and lubricate your
shaver’s cutters and head
assembly, apply Remington
®
Shaver Saver
®
(SP-4) Lubricant.
The lubricant helps remove hair
clippings while reducing wear.
A quick spray after each shave
keeps your shaver operating at
peak performance.
Caution:
Do not remove or replace
the head assembly while shaver is
running or plugged into an electrical
outlet as it may cause damage to the
unit’s cutters
.
The shaver shall not be
used until it has dried.
■
Worn or damaged parts should be
replaced with Remington
®
branded
replacement parts only.
Cleaning your shaver
TO ASSURE OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE,
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU CLEAN
YOUR SHAVER AFTER EACH USE.
Before cleaning, detach the handheld
unit from the power supply cord before
cleaning.
The cutting system of this
shaver was designed to be cleaned by
rinsing under warm running water or
by brushing.
Cleaning your
Remington
®
branded
shaver is easy.
■
Open the hair
pocket by pressing
the release button
and rotating away from the body of
the shaver. You may blow out the
stubble thoroughly, or rinse the shaver
head in water. Rinse both sides of the
head assembly.
■
At Least Once a
Week:
For more complete
cleaning, remove the
cutter retainer
assembly from the
hair pocket by turning the center knob
approximately 1/4 turn counter clock-
wise. Hold cutter retainer assembly as
shown, and remove head by turning
approximately 1/8 turn in the direction
shown. Brush clean both the head
and the cutter. Reassemble head to
cutter retainer assembly by aligning
and turning head 1/8 turn in the
opposite direction.
