RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

► Connect the hair dryer only to a correctly installed mains power socket providing electrical energy at the level detailed on the rating plate. ► Under no circumstances may the hair dryer be submerged in fluids, or fluids be permitted to enter the appliance housing. Do not expose the appliance to humidity and do not use it outdoors. Should liquids enter the housing, disconnect the appliance from the power source immediately and arrange for it to be repaired by a qualified technician. ► Disconnect the hair dryer from the mains power socket if defective operation is apparent and before cleaning it. ► To disconnect it, pull only on the plug itself, not on the power cable. ► Do not wrap the power cable around the appliance and protect the cable from being damaged. ► Should the power cable of the appliance be damaged, to avoid potential risks it must be replaced by the manufacturer, his customer service or by a qualified technician. ► Do not kink or crush the power cable and lay it in such a way as to prevent people from stepping on or tripping over it. ► Do not use extension cables. ► Never touch the hair dryer, the power cable or the plug with wet hands. ► Disconnect the hair dryer from the power source immediately after use. The appliance is completely free of electrical power only when you unplug it.GB

► You are not permitted to open or repair the housing of the hair dryer. Should you do so, appliance safety can no longer be assured and the warranty will become void. Ar- range for the hair dryer to be serviced and repaired only by qualified specialists. ► Never use the appliance near water, parti-cularly not near sinks, baths or other vessels. The proximity of water presents a risk, even when the appliance is switched off. After use, always disconnect the plug from the mains power socket. As additional protection, the installation of a faulty-current protection unit with an activation power rating of not more than 30 mA is recommended for the power circuit in the bathroom. Consult your electrician for advice. WARNING!

1) Insert the plug into a power socket.

2) Switch the hair dryer on with the blower level switch 5.

The hair dryer is fitted with two function switches. With these you can separately select the strength of the air flow (blower level switch 5) and the level of heat (heat level switch 6): Blower levels 0 The hair dryer is switched off reduced air flow full power air flow Heat levels cold air flow low heating level high heating level

SHTK 2000 A1 Cooling level With the cooling level button 7

you can produce a cooler air flow with every combination of blower and heat levels. Ionisation function This hair dryer is equipped with an ionising function: When drying the hair using a hair dryer, the hair takes on a static charge and begins to “fly”. The ionisation function ensures that this charging of the hair is neutralised and cancelled. The hair becomes soft, supple, shiny and easier to style. Please note, however, that the ionisation function will only work optimally if the attachments (finger diffuser 8/styling nozzle 1) are removed as the attachment will interfere with the application of the ions to the hair. Therefore, use the hair dryer without attachments for maximum ionisation effect. Drying and styling hair ■ For quick hair drying, we first recommend using a high blower and heater setting for a short period. After slightly drying the hair, switch to a lower blower and heater level to shape the hair. ■ With the supplied styling nozzle 1 you can apply a directed airflow to shape and style your hair. Place the styling nozzle 1 on the front of the hair dryer such that it engages and is seated firmly into place. ■ If you no longer require the styling nozzle 1, wait until the appliance has cooled down and pull it off with a downwards snapping motion: ■ If you want to dry your hair very gently, or use the dryer with so-called “air- dried perms”, attach the finger diffuser 8. First remove the styling nozzle 1, if it is fitted, and then attach the finger diffusor 8, such that it engages and is seated firmly into place.GB

 9 ■ SHTK 2000 A1 ■ If you no longer require the finger diffuser 8, wait until the appliance has cooled down and pull it off with a downwards snapping motion: ■ Before you comb your hair out, allow it to cool so that the shaping and styling can retain its form. ■ For cooling the hair you can use the cooling level button 7

or level of the heat level switch 6. Cleaning

from the hair dryer.

2) Clean the openings of the air intake grill 3 with a soft brush.

3) Replace the air intake grille 3 back onto the hair dryer so that the lugs on

the air intake grille 3 engage in the slots on the housing of the hairdryer. Turn the air intake grill 3 clockwise a little way so that it clicks into place and sits tightly.
