Read all instructions before using this appliance. s An appliance should never be left unattended when it's plugged in, except when charging a recharge able appliance. s Close supervision is necessar y when this appliance is used by, on, or near children or invalids. [. . . ] This means you have enough cleaning solution left for approxi mately 5 more cleanings. If the red light stops blinking and glows steadily, the unit will not operate until the solution and filter have been replaced. Replacing the Filter and Solution Only the Remington® special cleaning solution and filter can be used with the Smart System. The cleaning solution contains a high percentage of alcohol and a special oil that lubricates your shaver each time it is cleaned. The filter is specially designed to collect hair debris yet allow for the system to clean your shaver. To refill the cleaning solution and replace the filter, follow the steps for "Preparing the System" above. But before replacing the upper portion of the unit, rinse out the tank with fresh water and allow it to air dry to remove any sediment. Wipe off the unit periodically with a damp cloth and remove any hair debris that has collected where the shaver sits. To Charge Your Shaver The MS-5500 and MS-5700 can also be recharged by plugging it into the cord directly. s Use only the charging adapter supplied with the shaver. s Connect the cord to the shaver, then plug the charging adapter into the electrical outlet. A charging indicator light will come on. s Your shaver cannot be overcharged, so you can leave it plugged in and charg ing between shaves. s To preserve the life of the batteries, let them fully run out every six months, then recharge them for a full 24 hours. s Cord/cordless rechargeable shavers can run directly off the cord if necessary. They will not recharge while you are shaving, so after shaving with the cord, turn the unit off and set it aside to charge. Cord/cordless shavers should not be used strictly as cord-operated shavers, as continued cord-only use will result in reduction of battery life. s Quick Charge provides up to three weeks of shaving after a one-hour charge, or a single shave after a five-minutes charge. s If your shaver's charge runs out in the middle of a shave, you can push the power reserve button to get an extra 5 minutes of power. NOTE: If your shaver battery is completely discharged or the shaver has not been used for a long time, the shaver may not start when operated using the cord. If this happens, charge the shaver for approximately five minutes before shaving. Preparing the System Cleaning solution: 1. Press the latch but tons on the sides of the cleaning base and lift the upper portion off the unit. You will need to keep the buttons pressed in as you move the upper portion away from the base. The cleaning solution tank is in the unit's bottom portion. Remove the filter from the tank and set aside. Operating the Charging/Cleaning System Plug the power cord into the cleaning base and then into an electrical outlet. 2 Place the shaver into the unit, head side down, and slide its "tail"toward the "neck"of the base until it clicks into place. Charging Your shaver automatically begins to recharge as soon as it clicks into place in the cleaning base. While it is charging, the green indicator light will flash; when it is fully charged the green light will stop blinking and glow steadily. Cleaning To activate cleaning mode, simply press the CLEAN button on the cleaning base. The yellow indicator light flashes through the entire cleaning cycle, which lasts approximately 25 minutes. When the cleaning cycle has been completed, the yellow light will stop blinking and glow steadily. The unit then returns to charging mode. 3 3. Pour the bottle of cleaning solution into the base of the unit through the opening where the filter was removed. Fill tank to the bottom of the fill tab.
