Remington® shavers need no adjustments  
to their heads or cutters before you shave.  
The heads will automatically adjust to the  
contours of your face.It is not necessary to  
apply pressure while shaving,just let the  
shaver glide lightly on your skin.This gentle  
touch makes shaving easier and helps  
avoid possible skin irritation.  
Slide the ON / OFFbutton to the OFF  
position.  
Connect the cord to the shaver and  
then to the electrical outlet.The  
Charging Indicator light will glow green,  
indicating your shaver is charging.  
Your shaver cannot be overcharged,  
so you can leave it plugged in and  
charging between shaves.  
Hold the shaver so  
all the heads touch  
your face together.  
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 head  
touches the skin.This could cause skin  
irritation.  
use.Hold the shaver  
as shown in the illustration. To conserve  
battery energy (on rechargeable shavers  
only),it is recommended to use the trim-  
mer only when needed for trimming.When  
through using,push the trimmer button  
downward to lock into the OFF position.  
As with every shaver, your shave will  
improve over time.So allow about three  
weeks to develop an effective shaving style  
and for your beard to adjust to the new  
shaver. The adaptation period may take a  
little longer if your skin is sensitive,or if you  
alternate between shaving methods.  
Use only the supplied cord.  
The R-846 is designed for cordless  
operation only. Plugging in the cord will  
not provide the power to shave.  
Trim sideburns  
Simply touch the  
edge of the trimmer

it easier for them  
to enter the cutting chamber.  
Always use a clean,dry shaver. Make  
sure that the cutter head assembly is in  
the locked position.  
Once fully charged,your shaver will run up  
to 40 minutes without a cord.  
Never press hard.  
Pressing only flat-  
tens your whiskers,  
which makes it  
harder for them to  
enter the cutting  
chamber. It will  
also wear out the  
cutting surface more quickly.  
Wait at least 15 minutes  
Corded Operation  
after getting up before  
shaving,to ensure your  
face is free of puffiness  
that may be present  
from sleeping.  
The R-950/960/970 have a corded operation  
feature that allows you to run the shaver  
directly off the cord in cases when batteries  
are low. Simply connect the cord to the  
shaver and then to an electrical outlet. Turn  
the shaver on and proceed to shave.  
Note: Your shaver will not recharge during  
corded operation,so after shaving,turn the  
shaver off and leave it plugged in so it can  
be recharged.

For an even better shave…

can help maximize your shavers perform-

beard.Both absorb moisture and facial oils,  
helping set up the hairs so they enter the  
cutting chamber more easily. They make  
shaving quicker and more comfortable.
