The Remington Limitless X9 XR1790AU is a rotary shaver designed for a close and comfortable shave. This manual provides comprehensive instructions for its use, care, and maintenance, ensuring long-lasting performance.
The Remington Limitless X9 is primarily a rotary shaver, featuring a pivoting head with three individual flexing heads that adapt to the contours of your face for an efficient shave. It is designed for use on facial hair only and is not intended for shaving hair on the head. The shaver is waterproof, allowing for both dry shaving and wet shaving with foam or cream, and can even be used in the shower.
A key feature of this device is its "Turbo" mode, which is activated by pressing the turbo button. This mode is specifically designed for shaving thick stubble, with the turbo button illuminating green when active. Pressing it again deactivates the turbo mode.
The shaver also includes a "Shave-Learn" LED system. This intelligent feature continuously analyzes the average time it takes for you to shave during use. The 5 LEDs act as an indicator of the remaining battery charge, specifically in terms of the number of shaves left. When fully charged, all 5 LEDs are lit, indicating enough charge for 5 or more shaves. As the battery depletes, the LEDs will show the remaining number of shaves (e.g., 4 LEDs for 4 shaves). These LEDs fade out after 5 seconds. During charging, the LEDs function as a fuel gauge, with each LED representing 20% of the battery charge. Once fully charged, all LEDs switch off.
For added versatility, the shaver comes with a detail trimmer and an adjustable stubble comb (1-5mm). These attachments allow for precise trimming and styling of facial hair.
To ensure optimal performance and a comfortable shave, several usage tips are provided. It is recommended to fully charge the shaver before its first use. When shaving, it's advisable to wait at least 15 minutes after waking up to allow any facial puffiness to subside. The shaver should always be held at a right angle to the skin, ensuring all three heads maintain equal pressure. Stretching the skin with your free hand helps hairs stand upright, facilitating their entry into the cutting chamber. Moderate to slow, circular stroking movements are recommended, especially in stubborn areas like the neck and chin line, for a closer shave. It's important not to press hard against the skin to avoid irritation or damage to the rotary heads.
The manual highlights that the quality of your shave will improve over time, suggesting an adaptation period of up to four weeks of daily shaving for your skin to adjust to the new shaver and for you to develop an effective shaving style. This period might be longer for sensitive skin, or if you are switching from a different shaving method or alternating between methods.
For wet shaving with gel, the same instructions as dry shaving apply, with the added caution to rinse the head and cutters under warm water after use to remove excess gel and debris.
Fitting the detail trimmer and comb attachment involves first switching off the shaver, then grasping the head and cutter assembly and pulling it away from the body. If using, the adjustable comb clips over the trimming attachment, and finally, the detail trimmer clips onto the body of the shaver.
The shaver also incorporates a "Travel Lock" feature to prevent accidental activation and battery discharge during storage or travel. To engage the lock, press and hold the turbo button for 3 seconds until a lock icon appears. To unlock, repeat the process until the icon switches off.
Proper maintenance is crucial for the shaver's longevity and performance. Regular cleaning after each use is strongly recommended. To clean, first ensure the shaver is switched off. Open the shaver head by pressing the release button, which will cause the head assembly to open. Rinse the head under a tap to wash away hair trimmings and carefully brush away any remaining hairs from the cutters. Finally, snap the head assembly closed. It's important to note that the individual cutters are designed to remain permanently in the shave head and should not be removed for cleaning.
The detail trimmer requires lubrication every six months with a drop of sewing machine oil to maintain its functionality.
Replacement of the head and cutters is essential for a close, comfortable shave without irritation. These parts should be replaced every 6 months. Signs that indicate the need for replacement include skin irritation (especially noticeable when applying moisturizing lotion) and a sensation of pulling or a loss of closeness during shaving, which suggests cutter wear. Replacement heads and cutters can be obtained directly from Remington, either by filling out an accessory order form or by calling their service hotline.
For cleaning the external surfaces of the shaver, avoid using strong detergents or other chemicals. To dry the shaver, wipe its surface with a dry towel; do not use a hair dryer or heater.
The manual also provides detailed instructions for removing the rechargeable battery, emphasizing that this should ideally be done by a professional due to sharp edges and potential injury. The battery must be removed before the appliance is scrapped and disconnected from the circuit board. Used batteries must be disposed of at an appropriate official recycling/collection point. It is explicitly stated not to operate the shaver once it has been opened.
Disposal and recycling information is also included, advising users to dispose of e-waste (anything with a plug, battery, or cord) through controlled recycling facilities rather than general household waste, and to contact local councils for more information.
