This travel hair dryer is suitable for professionally styling your hair. The device allows you to dry your hair quickly and gently. The two-stage blower and temperature regulation allows you to adjust the travel hair dryer to suit your individual requirements. The built-in ion technology uses negatively charged ions to neutralise hair. Static charge in the hair is therefore prevented. In addition, the hair maintains its colour brilliance and is protected against drying. The additional cold air level serves to better hold your hairstyle in place. The device handle can be folded to save space in your luggage when travelling. The travel hair dryer can be adapted to the mains voltage (100-120 V or 220-240 V). The device is only intended for the purpose described in these instructions for use. The manufacturer is not liable for damage resulting from improper or careless use.12 13
