■ When using soap or foam lather, the
shaver will glide smoothly over the skin,
cleansing away oil residue while leaving
skin soft and smooth. Apply the soap or
foam generously. Do not use non-lather-
ing shaving cream, nourishing cream,
or skin lotion, as these will clog the
shaver’s screens.

the first time, you will need to charge it for
18-24 hours; it will
recharge more quickly after
its initial charge.
1. Take the charging base
that came with the
shaver, and plug its cord
into an electrical outlet.
2. Set the shaver securely
into the charging base.
The green light indicates your shaver is
charging. The shaver cannot be over-
charged, so you can leave it plugged in
and charging between shaves.
1. Turn the bottom tip of the shaver counter
clockwise and pull. The bottom third of
the shaver should easily pull away,
exposing the battery compartment.
2. Align the (+) and (-) symbols and
insert 2 AA alkaline batteries into
the compartment.
3. Return the bottom of the shaver to its
original position and turn the bottom
tip clockwise to lock it in place.

■ For best results, shave against the
direction your hair grows. However, your
Smooth & Silky® will shave your leg in
any direction.
■ If you’ve been shaving with a blade, your
skin may need up to 3 weeks to adjust
to an electric shaver. Once your skin
adjusts, you’ll get an incredibly close,
comfortable shave.
Wet/Dry Cautions
■ Charging stands are not submersible.
■ Always use cold or warm water to rinse
your shaver. Very hot water, sea water,
or cleanser could damage it.
Operating Your

■ Remove the protective
head guard before
■ Do not leave the shaver submerged in

button to turn the

Wet/Dry Use
Charging Cautions
■ Make sure the shaver and your hands
are dry when placing the shaver in the
charging stand.
■ When inserting the shaver into the
charging stand, avoiding pushing on
the screens, or they may become
damaged.
■ Always charge the shaver in a cool,
dry place.
■ The charging stand can only be used
in North America (120V, 60Hz).
All Smooth & Silky® shavers give you a
great, close shave wet or dry. Your Smooth
& Silky® shaver is fully submersible in
water, so you can shave with foam or soapy
lather, in the shower or the tub. Dry use is
great for a quick, close shave when you’re
in a hurry; no special preparation is
necessary. After shaving, wet or dry, simply
run the shaver under cold water to clean it.
(See “Cleaning & Maintenance’ section for
details.)
■ Hold the shaver so both
screens touch your skin at the same
time. 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 so only one
screen touches the skin at a time. This
can distort the screen and could cause
skin irritation.
■ After shaving, press the ON/OFF button
again to turn the shaver off.
■ Rinse the shaver head and replace
the protective head guard.
Trimming Tips
■ When trimming longer hairs, tip the
shaver slightly so the trimmer glides
across the skin.
■ Move the trimmer against the direction
of hair growth.

Cleaning & Maintenance
To replace a cutter assembly that is
removed unintentionally:
3. Use a Phillips head screwdriver to
remove the 4 screws that hold the
head assembly in place.
4. Lift the head assembly out of the shaver
by grasping the cutter and trimmer
drivers, lining them up in the central
position and pulling. Discard.
5. Remove the next 4 screws, so you can
lift the shaver’s upper outer shell off the
shaver and discard it.
6. Remove the two
screws
(located opposite
of the batteries)
holding the lower
housing. Remove
the lower
housing.
7. Cut the tape
holding the
batteries
to the inner
frame assembly,
and discard it.
8. Cut the 2 metal
tabs connecting
the batteries to
the inner frame.
9. Pull the batteries
free from the
inner frame and dispose of
properly.
Cleaning Your Shaver
Remington recommends cleaning your
shaver after every use for optimal
performance.
1. Turn the shaver OFF.
2. Press the side release
button to flip open the
head assembly.
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, or if you used
it in the shower, 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.
Replacing Cutters And
Screens
1. Hold the cutter in the middle. The blades
will not cut your fingers, so no special
handling techniques are necessary.
2. Align the cutter so the little bar on the
bottom meets the opening in the clip.
3. Press down on the center of the cutter
until it snaps into place. Do not push
down on the ends of the cutter, as you
may bend the cutter, reducing its ability
to cut cleanly.
When is it time to replace your screens
and cutters?
The cutters and screens of your shaver
will wear with use and eventually require
replacement to maintain a close, comfort-
able shave. It is very important to replace
your screens and cutters when necessary
to ensure a close, comfortable shave
without irritation.
4. Do not separate the cutter’s blades from
the plastic pieces they are attached to,
as this may damage the assembly.
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.
Rechargeable Battery
Removal
Here are some signs that you screens and
cutters need replacing:
When your WDF-1600 reaches the end
of its useful life, the batteries must be
removed from the shaver and be recycled
or disposed of properly in accordance with
your state and local requirements. If this
is not required by law, you may elect to
dispose of the shaver without the batteries.
Make sure shaver is unplugged before you
begin, to avoid possible electric shock
hazard.
Irritation: As screens get worn, you may
notice that your skin feels more sensitive
after a shave.
Pulling: As cutters wear, your shave may
not feel as close and you may feel your
shaver is “pulling” the hairs.
Wear-through: You may notice that the
cutters have worn through the screens.
To prevent inadvertent damage to the
cutters 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.
CAUTION: DO NOT PUT IN FIRE OR MUTI-
LATE YOUR BATTERIES WHEN DISPOSING
AS THEY MAY BURST AND RELEASE TOXIC
MATERIALS. DO NOT SHORT CIRCUIT AS IT
MAY CAUSE BURNS. DISPOSE PROPERLY
IN ACCORDANCE WITH YOUR LOCAL AND
STATE REQUIREMENTS.
How to Remove the Rechargable Battery:
1. Press the head release button to open
the shaver’s head assembly.
Storage
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.
While storing the product never wrap cord
around the product. Overtime the cord may
become worn and break.
The replacement part for the WDF-1200
& 1600 is model SP-130 & SP-132.
