• Check the condition of the mains cord regularly. Do not use the appliance if the plug, the mains cord or the appliance itself is damaged.
• If the mains cord is damaged, you must have it replaced by Philips, a service centre authorised by Philips or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

Caution

• For additional protection, we advise you to install a residual current device (RCD) in the electrical circuit that supplies the bathroom. This RCD must have a rated residual operating current not higher than 30mA. Ask your installer for advice.
• The straightening plates and the plastic parts near the plates reach a high temperature quickly. Prevent the hot surfaces of the appliance from coming into contact with your skin.
• The maximum temperature occurs just after heating up. The actual temperature during use may be lower.
• Always unplug the appliance after use.
• For safety reasons, the straightener automatically switches off after having been on for 1 hour.
• Wait until the appliance has cooled down before you store it.
• Always switch off the appliance before you put it down, even if it is only for a moment.

Electromagnetic fields (EMF)

This Philips appliance complies with all standards regarding electromagnetic fields (EMF). If handled properly and according to the instructions in this user manual, the appliance is safe to use based on scientific evidence available today.

Using the appliance

Straighteners are powerful styling tools and must always be used with care.

As with all straighteners that reach salon-high temperatures, do not use the appliance frequently to avoid damage to the hair. If you use the straightener incorrectly or at the wrong temperature setting, you could overheat your hair or even burn it. Always make sure you select a temperature setting that is suitable for your hair type.

Straightening

1 Put the plug in the wall socket.
2 Press the on/off button.

The default temperature setting of 120 appears on the display. As soon as the appliance has heated up to this setting, the word 'READY' appears on the display.
The word ‘SONIC’ appears on the display (see section ‘Sonic vibration’).

Never leave the appliance unattended when it is plugged in. Always put the appliance on a heat-resistant surface when it is heating up and when it is hot.

3 Select a temperature setting that is suitable for your hair.

• Always select a low setting when you use the straightener for the first time.
• For coarse, curly or hard-to-straighten hair, select a medium to high setting (170 and up).
• For fine, medium-textured or softly waved hair, select a medium to low setting (160 and below).

Take extra care with pale, blonde, bleached or colour-treated hair, since it is susceptible to damage at high temperatures.

4 To set the temperature setting, press the + button to increase the temperature setting or press the - button to decrease the temperature setting. (Fig. 2)

The display shows the selected temperature setting.
When the appliance has heated up to the selected setting, the word ‘READY’ appears on the display.
The bars on the display show the remaining usage time of the appliance. The total usage time is 60 minutes. Every ten minutes one of the six bars disappears. After 60 minutes, the appliance switches off automatically.

5 Comb or brush your hair so that it is disentangled and smooth. (Fig. 3)

Use a comb to divide the hair into sections. Do not put too much hair in one section.

Note: It is better to section off the crown area and to straighten the hair underneath first, followed by the top area.

ENGLISH10

6 Take a section that is not wider than 5cm. Place it between the straightening plates and press the handles of the appliance firmly together.
The sonic vibration starts (see section ‘Sonic vibration’).
7 Slide the straightener down the length of the hair in 5 seconds, from root to hair end, without stopping to prevent overheating (Fig. 4).
8 Repeat this process after 20 seconds until you have achieved the desired look.
9 Let your hair cool down. Do not comb or brush it before it has cooled down, as this would ruin the hairstyle you have just created.

Sonic vibration

The appliance is equipped with sonic vibration. When you switch on the appliance, the word ‘SONIC’ appears on the display. The vibration does not start when you switch on the appliance, but when you press the straightening plates together. To switch the sonic vibration on and off, use the sonic vibration on/off button.

Note: When the sonic vibration is on, the plates make a rattling sound when they are only slightly in contact. This does not affect the performance of the appliance.

1 To switch off the sonic vibration, press and hold the sonic vibration on/off button until the word 'SONIC' disappears from the display.
The sonic vibration is now switched off.

2 To switch on the sonic vibration again, press the sonic vibration on/off button until the word 'SONIC' appears on the display.

The sonic vibration is now switched on.
