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 clockwise. Hold cutter
retainer assembly
as shown, and
remove head by
turning approxi-
mately 1/8 turn
in the direction
shown. Brush
clean both the
head and the cutter.
Reassemble head
to cutter retainer
assembly by align-
ing and turning
head 1/8 turn in the
opposite direction.
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 reduc-
ing 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.

Model R-1000
A blue lighted fuel gauge displays the
amount of charge remaining in 20%
increments. When only 20% of the
charge remains, the recharge red
warning light illuminates.
Troubleshooting:
■ If your R-1000 shaver battery
is completely discharged or the
shaver has not been used for
an extended period of time,
the shaver may not start when
operated using the cord. If this
condition occurs, charge the
shaver for approximately five
minutes before shaving.
■ Your cord/cordless shaver should
not be used strictly as a cord-
operated shaver, as continued
cord only use will result in
reduction of battery life.
■ In order to preserve the life of
the batteries, they should be fully
discharged every six months and
then fully charged for 24 hours.
