When is it time to replace your screens
and cutters?
Because they are subject to daily use, the
cutters and screens 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 foils and
cutters need replacing:
Irritation:
As screens get worn, you may
notice that your skin feels more sensitive
after a shave, particularly when you apply
aftershave.
Pulling:
As cutters wear, your shave may
not feel as close and you may feel your
shaver is pulling at your whiskers.
Wear-through:
You may notice that the
cutters have worn through the screens.
The replacement for this shaver is model
SP-67 (screens) and SP-69 (screens and
cutters).

Turn the shaver off.

Extend the trimmer to its maximum
height by pressing the right trimmer
button.

Use the cleaning brush to sweep off any
clippings that may have accumulated

machine oil one-third and two-thirds of
the way along the blade.

Using your fingertip, spread the oil along
the teeth.
3.
Run the trimmer for a few seconds to
distribute oil.
Replacing Cutters and
Screens
To prevent inadvertent damage to the cut-
ters and screens, do not attempt to remove
them from the head assembly unless you
are replacing them. Removal instructions
are included with the cutter and screen
replacement packages.

removed unintentionally:
1.
Hold the assembly in the
middle of the "T".
2.
Gently slide the plastic
portion of the cutter
assembly over the top
of the oscillator tip.

Do not push downward on the ends of
the cutters, as you may bend the cutter,
reducing its ability to operate smoothly.

Do not remove cutters from the plastic
pieces they are attached to, as you may

Cleaning Your Shaver
Remington® recommends cleaning
your shaver after every use for optimal
performance.
1.
Turn shaver OFF.
2.
Remove the head assembly
by squeezing on both
release buttons and pulling
up from the body of the
shaver.
3. Screens-
Do not use the
brush to clean the screens.
Instead, blow the shavings
out or rinse the screens
under cold or warm water.
4. Cutters and trimmer-
Use the cleaning brush
to sweep any loose hairs
from the cutters and
trimmers, or rinse/dunk
them in cold or warm
water. Do NOT use hot
water.
5.
After cleaning, return the
foils and head assembly
to their original position
on the shaver.
6.
If the shaver was rinsed with water hold
it facing downward into the sink, and
turn it on for a few seconds to dispel
additional water. A gentle shake will
also help.
7.
To clean the external surfaces of the
shaver, use a damp cloth. Do NOT use
strong detergents or other chemicals.
8.
To dry, wipe the surface of the overall
shaver with a dry towel. Do NOT use a
hairdryer or heater to dry the shaver.
