To Trim
To use the Easy-
View
TM
locking 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.
NOTE:
It is important to always use
the button to close the trimmer to
avoid damaging the locking mecha-
nism.

comb-edge of the
trimmer to the
desired line for neat,
clean sideburns.
Trim Mustache
Hold the shaver at
desired trim line for
a quick, easy, professional trim. The

How To Use
To Shave
Push the on/off button to activate the
shaver for shaving.
The MicroFlex
®
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 shav-
ing…let the shaver
glide lightly on your
skin. This gentle touch makes shav-
ing easier and helps avoid possible
skin irritation.
Use short, circular strokes. Use your
free hand to stretch your skin. This
encourages your whiskers to stand
out, making it easier
for them to enter the
cutting chamber.
Getting a Close, Comfortable
Shave
The Best Technique
It’s simple to get a great shave from
your new shaver. Here are a few
tips for getting the closest shave
possible:
Always use a clean,
dry shaver. Make sure
that the cutter head
assembly is in the
locked position.
Wait at least 15
minutes after getting
up before shaving,
to ensure the face is
free of puffiness that
may be present from
sleeping.
Make sure your face
is clean and dry
before starting.

Always keep the protective head
guard on the cutter head and keep
the trimmer in the “off”position
when the shaver is not in use. The
head guard must be put on with
the rear tab to the back of the
shaver.
For a Better Shave
To help maximize your shaver's
performance, consider using the
Remington
®
Pre-Shave Powder Stick
(SP-5). Just rub over your beard.
It absorbs moisture and facial oils,
helping set up the hairs so they enter
the cutting chamber more easily. It
makes shaving quicker and more
comfortable.
ComfortSelect
TM
Suspension
System
Your Remington
®
shaver is equipped with
ComfortSelect
TM
suspension system
for personalized comfort. For a closer
shave, move the ComfortSelect
TM
lever to the right. For a more com-
fortable shave with less irritation,
move the lever to the left.
A shaving
appliance is a
washable shaver,
the hand-held
part of which
may be cleaned
under water.
