Safety instructions

⚠️ Reduce the risk of electric shock

- ALWAYS set the voltage selector on the hairdryer to the rating of the local power supply. Under no circumstances should you operate the travel-hairdryer on a 230-240 V mains supply when the voltage selector switch is set at 120 V (or vice-versa). It would destroy the appliance and the guarantee would be void. Adjust the voltage selector with a coin. Make enquiries about the rating of the local electrical mains supply with the energy supplier or with the hotel personnel. First when this has been done insert the plug into a power socket and then switch your travel-hairdryer on.

- Connect the travel-hairdryer only to correctly installed power sockets with a current rating of 120 / 230-240 V at 60 / 50 Hz.

Under no circumstances may the appliance be submersed in fluids or fluids be allowed to permeate the housing.

- Do not expose the appliance to humidity and do not use it outdoors. Should liquids enter the housing, unplug the appliance from the power socket immediately and have it repaired by a qualified technician.

Warning

Under no circumstances should you use the travel-hairdryer in the close vicinity of baths, washbowls or other receptacles containing water. The proximity of moisture presents a danger, even when the appliance is switched off. After use, always remove the plug from the power socket.

• As additional protection we recommend the installation of a residual-current-operated protective device with a rated tripping current of not more than 30 mA in the bathroom circuit. Ask your electrician for advice.
• In the event of operating malfunctions and before cleaning the appliance, remove the power plug from the wall socket.
• To disconnect, always pull the plug from the power socket, do not pull the power cord.
• Do not wrap the power cable around the appliance and protect it from being damaged.
• Do not crease or crimp the power cable and place it in such a way as to prevent anyone from stepping on or tripping over it.
• To avoid risks, arrange for defective power cables and/or plugs to be replaced immediately by qualified technicians or our Customer Service Department.
• In order that you can disconnect the appliance quickly in an emergency, do not use extension cables.
• NEVER grasp the appliance, power cable or power plug with wet hands.
• Unplug the appliance immediately after use. The appliance is completely free of electrical power ONLY when unplugged.

- You may not open the housing or repair the appliance yourself. Should you do so, appliance safety can no longer be assured and the warranty will become void. Permit only authorised technicians to repair a defective appliance if repairs should be necessary.

⚠️ Risk of burns and physical injuries

• This appliance is not intended for use by individuals (including children) with restricted physical, physiological or intellectual abilities or deficiencies in experience and/or knowledge unless they are supervised by a person responsible for their safety or receive from this person instruction in how the appliance is to be used. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
• Never lay the travel-hairdryer down when it is switched on and never leave a switched on appliance unsupervised.
• Do not place the appliance close to sources of heat and protect the power cable from damage.
• Do not operate the appliance if it has sustained a fall or is damaged. Arrange for the appliance to be checked and/or repaired by qualified technicians.
• Do not cover the ventilation grid while operating the appliance. Clean it at regular intervals.
• The appliance becomes hot when in use. Hold it only with the grip when it is hot.

The travel-hairdryer is only intended for use in drying and shaping human hair and absolutely not for use with wigs and hairpieces made of synthetic material.

Operation

• Always set the voltage selector on the hairdryer ① to the rating of the local electrical power supply, if you do not the appliance could be damaged. Adjust the voltage selector ⑤ with a coin. Make enquiries about the rating of the local electrical mains supply with the energy supplier or with the hotel personnel.
• Fold the travel-hairdryer ① open until the grip ③ audibly locks in.
• If necessary, select a suitable plug adaptor and insert the power plug on the appliance into the plug adaptor.
• Finally, insert the plug adaptor into the power socket.

• If you wish to use only the appliance power plug, insert the appliance power plug into the power socket.

• Place the styling jet ⑦ on to the front of the travel-hairdryer ①, until it audibly clicks in. To obtain a directed flow of air, turn the styling jet ⑦ into the desired position. Remove the styling jet ⑦ from the front of the travel-hairdryer ① if you wish to use a broader flow of air.

• Switch the travel-hairdryer ① on with the operating switch ④.

The travel-hairdryer ① is equipped with a three-position switch: "0" (Off), "I" (gentle airflow, warm) and "II" (strong airflow, hot). In the event of overheating, the travel-hairdryer ① automatically switches itself off.

Drying and styling hair

- For quick-drying of the hair, we recommend a short time at switch position "II", and afterwards switch to position "I" for forming and styling.

With the supplied styling jet ⑦ you can accurately direct the air flow for styling.

If you wish to dry your hair especially gently, or with so-called "air-dried permanent waves", use the finger diffusor ⑧.

• For this, remove the styling jet ⑦ and replace it with the finger diffusor ⑧.
• Before you comb out your hair, allow it to cool so that the shaping and styling can retain its form.

Important!

Pack and transport the travel-hairdryer ① only when it has completely cooled down. Otherwise it could damage other items.

The travel-hairdryer ① and the accessories can be packed and transported in the supplied storage bag.

- Use a soft cloth, lightly moistened with a mild detergent solution, to clean the housing.

Risk of electrical shock!
