CGETTING STARTED
It is recommended that you use your new shaver daily for up to two weeks to
allow time for your beard and skin to become accustomed to the new shaving
system.
Your Remington Sensitive Foil shaver has been designed to help reduce irritation
and ingrowing hairs for men who experience these conditions when shaving.
The lifting combs at both edges of the cutting head help lift at lying, longer
hairs and feed them into the cutters. The shaver is designed to cut hairs at or
slightly above the skin surface to help prevent ingrown hairs. For best results, it
is recommended to use the shaver daily or every other day to maintain hair
length and to reduce ingrowing hairs.
