CHARGING

Before using, read the important safety instructions in this manual.

  1. Ensure the product is switched off. Connect the shaver to the adaptor (Diagram A). A B C 6
  2. Connect to the mains (Diagram B) and charge for at least 4 hours when using for the first time (Diagram C). This first charge is important to the shaver’s battery life.
  3. When plugged, the charging indicator will light up.
  4. When empty, the battery should be charged for 4 hours, and will provide 60 minutes of shaving time.
  5. To preserve the life of the batteries, allow the shaver to fully discharge every six months, and then recharge them for 24 hours
  6. Do not shave in the shower with the power cord plugged into the shaver

Caution:

  • Make sure the shaver and your hands are dry when charging the shaver.
  • Always charge the shaver in a cool, dry place.
SHAVING

  1. Press power button to turn on. (Diagram D)
  2. Shave face and neck using short, circular strokes. (Diagram E)
  3. After shaving, turn the shaver off. (Diagram D)
SHAVING TIPS
  • The Remington® Power Series R3 is waterproof. You may use shaving foam or gel with your shaver. You may also shave in the shower.
  • Wait at least 15 minutes after getting up before shaving, to ensure your face is free of puffiness that may be present from sleeping.
  • Always hold the shaver at a right angle to the skin so that all three heads are touching the skin with equal pressure.
  • Stretch skin with the free hand so hairs stand upright, making it easier for them to enter the cutting chamber.
  • Use moderate to slow, circular stroking movement.
  • The use of short, circular motions in stubborn areas may obtain a closer shave, especially along the neck and chin line.
  • Do not press hard against the skin to avoid skin irritation and/or damage to the rotary heads.
  • As with every shaver, your shave will improve over time. Allow up to four weeks of daily shaving to develop an effective shaving style and for your skin to adjust to the new shaver. The adaptation period might take a little longer if your skin is sensitive, if you are switching from a different method of shaving, or if you alternate between shaving methods.
TRIMMING

Pop-up Trimmer:

  1. Push trimmer release button to engage trimmer. (Diagram F)
  2. Trim long, difficult hairs and side burns.
  3. Close trimmer by pressing down. (Diagram G)

Note: Lubricate teeth with oil every 6 months.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

Daily Cleaning:

  1. Open the shaver head by pressing the release button on the front of the shaver (Fig. H) and flipping open the head away from the body of the shaver (Fig. I).
  2. Tap out excess hair shavings.
  3. Rinse the head of the shaver in running water.
  4. Close the head assembly.

Monthly Cleaning:

  • Perform cleaning steps 1 and 2.
  • Hold the shaver upside down so that the open cutter assembly is facing towards you. Slide the blue cutter support frame upwards towards the shaver to release it from the assembly (Fig. J).
  • Pull the cutter support frame away from the inner cutters (Fig. K).
  • Thoroughly brush hairs from the inner and outer cutters. Rinse out remaining debris (Fig. L).
  • Place the cutter support frame back into position and lock into place (Fig. M-N).
  • Align the spring hinge into the slot at the back.

Warning:

  • Detach the power adaptor from the shaver before cleaning in water.
  • Shaver heads are suitable for cleaning under an open water tap.

Caution:

  • Shaver heads can be rinsed with water. The water temperature should not exceed 70 degrees. Unplug the shaver before cleaning with water.
  • Keep the adaptor and cable dry.

REPLACING THE HEAD & CUTTERS

Please refer to the specifications’ table on page 5 of this manual that lists the correct replacement part number for your shaver.

It is very important to replace your head and cutters when necessary to ensure a close, comfortable shave without irritation. We recommend they be replaced every 6 months. Here are some signs of head and cutter wear, indicating that replacement is needed:

  • Irritation: As the heads get excessively worn you may experience some skin irritation. This would be especially noticeable when you apply moisturizing lotion.
  • Pulling: When the cutters wear you may feel a sense of pulling and a loss of closeness when you shave. This is an indication that it is time to replace your heads and cutters.

Replacement heads & cutters may be obtained from your local retailer, or directly from Remington®. Simply fill out the enclosed accessory order form – refer to page 8 & 9, or alternatively your order can be processed over the phone via the Remington® Service Hotline.

BATTERY DISPOSAL

Note: The battery is not intended to be removed or replaced under normal use. The only time the battery should be removed or the unit opened or disassembled, is at the end of the product’s useful life before it is discarded.

  • The R3500AU contains a nickel metal hydride battery. Once the shaver has reached the end of its life, to ensure proper disposal of the product, please take the appliance to a recycling centre, where the internal rechargeable battery should be removed by a professional and recycled separately.
  • For more information about recycling of electrical and battery operated appliances, please contact your local council office or your household waste disposal service.

Caution: Do not put in the fire or mutilate your batteries when disposing as they may burst and release toxic materials. Do not short circuit as it may cause burns.

We suggest you use local waste management centres to recycle this product at end of life.
