Removing the Headguard

Before operating your shaver, remove

the Headguard, which protects

the Foils and Cutter Assembly. It is

important to remove the Headguard

correctly to avoid damaging the clips

that hold it firmly to the shaver.

1. Press lightly on the top of the

headguard.

2. Lift the lower rear edge.

3. Pull the Headguard away from

the shaver.

Operation

Use of this shaver at voltages other

than the ones specified below will

cause damage and will void the war-

ranty. Model XT-100 uses 105-130

VAC, 60 Hz.

Charging

Before using your shaver for the first

time, put it on charge for 24 hours.

NOTE: It may take up to 3 cycles for

the battery to reach full capacity.

To charge your shaver:

■ Slide the power button to the

OFF position.

■ Connect the supplied power

adapter to the shaver’s cord socket

and then to an electrical outlet.

■ Your shaver cannot be overcharged,

so you can leave it plugged in and

charging between shaves.

■ To preserve the life of the batteries,

allow them to fully discharge every

six months, then recharge them for

24 hours.

NOTE: LEDs illuminate behind the

green lens when the shaver is

charging.

To Shave

With the shaver unplugged, slide the

ON/OFF button upward to turn on.

Note that this shaver is designed

only to operate on power from its

batteries; it must be charged before

using.

Comfort Guard

■ The comfort guard lever can be

kept in the down position while

shaving to expose the entire

trimmer.

■ To avoid irritating sensitive areas

of the face and neck, raise the

comfort guard and shave normally.

The guard will allow hair to pass

through and be cut, but will keep

the trimmer away from the skin.

■ To trim facial hair, simply lower the

comfort guard.

Getting Used To Your Shaver

As with every shaver, your shave will

improve over time. Allow about three

weeks to develop an effective shav-

ing style and for your skin to adjust

to the new shaver. The adaptation

period may take a little longer if your

skin is sensitive, if you are switch-

ing from a different way of shaving,

or if you alternate between shaving

methods.

When you first removed your shaver

from its box, you may have noticed

what appear to be small particles

of white or gray power on the foil

in or around the cutter assembly.

The particles are from a coating of a

special lubricant applied to the new

foil and cutters to smooth breaking

in your new shaver. They will disap-

pear with use.

To shave

Slide the ON/OFF button upwards.

Hold the shaver so the foil is

perpendicular to your face. This

allows the shaver to work the way it

was designed for the closest shave

and minimum wear. Avoid holding

the shaver at an angle. This will

distort the screen and could cause

skin irritation.

NOTE: This shaver is designed only

to operate from it’s batteries: it must

be charged before using.

Shave with 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.

Never press hard. Pressing only flat-

tens your whiskers, making it harder

for them to enter the cutting cham-

ber. It will also wear out the cutting

surface more quickly.

How To Use

Before you begin:

■ 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 use a clean,

dry shaver.

Cleaning Your Shaver

To assure smooth, efficient perfor-

mance, it is important to clean your

shaver. Cleaning your Remington

®

Shaver is easy.

1. Remove the Head

Assembly by holding

onto the sides of the

Head Assembly at

the arrows, press

the two head release

buttons while gently

lifting the assembly

away from the shaver.

2. Tap the base of the Head Assembly

lightly on a flat surface. This

should dislodge most of the hairs

trapped within it. To guard against

inadvertent damage, do not

remove the Foil Assembly.

3. Next, clean the

Cutter Assembly

while it is still on

the shaver. Hold the

shaver and Cutter

Assembly as shown,

and using the brush

supplied, lightly brush and blow

the hair clippings from between

the blades.

Tip: To help reduce wear and tear,

spray the Head Assembly with

Remington

®

Spray Shaver-Saver

®

Lubricant after every shave. This

helps remove hairs while keeping

your shaver operating smoothly.

Cleaning & Maintenance

Cleaning Cautions

■ Do not use an aggressive cleansing

agent as this may destroy the

shaver coatings.

■ Do not remove or replace the head

assembly while shaver is running

as it may cause damage to the

unit's screen or cutter.

Trimmer Care

Cleaning

■ When you clean your shaver, just

brush off any clippings that may

accumulate around the trimmer

assembly.

■ Every six months apply a drop

of light machine oil one-third

and two-thirds of the way along

the blade.

■ Using your fingertip, spread the oil

along the teeth.

■ Run the trimmer for a few

seconds to distribute oil.
