Safety instructions

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.
• 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. Arrange for the hair dryer to be serviced and repaired only by qualifi ed specialists.

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

Never use the appliance near water, particularly 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 30mA is recommended for the power circuit in the bathroom. Consult your electrician for advice.

WARNING! RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY!

This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.
Children shall not play with the appliance.
- Cleaning and user maintenance tasks shall not be carried out by children unless they are supervised.
- When it is switched on, NEVER lay the hair dryer down or leave it unsupervised.
- Never place the hair dryer close to sources of heat and protect the power cable against potential damage.
- Do not take the hair dryer into use if it has fallen down or is damaged in any way. Arrange for the appliance to be checked and/or repaired by qualified technicians.
- Do not cover the air intake grill while operating the appliance. Clean the grill at regular intervals.
The hair dryer becomes hot when it is in use. Hold it only by the grip when it is hot.

ATTENTION! DAMAGE TO PROPERTY!

• Never pull the power cord out of the device beyond the point indicated with a red mark.
  Always pull the power cord out of the device up to the point indicated with a red mark when you use the device. Otherwise it could overheat!

Operation

NOTE

Before use, pull the plug out of the device up to the point indicated with a red mark!

Heat and blower levels

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):

Blowerlevels

The hair dryer is switched off

reduced air flow

full power air flow

Heat levels

cold air flow

low heating level

high heating level

3) After use, switch the appliance off in that you place the blower level switch 5 into position "O". Then remove the plug from the wall socket.
4) Press the cord retract button ② to feed the cord back into the device.

Coolinglevel

With the cooling level button 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.

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 jet ① you can apply a directed airflow to shape and style your hair. Place the styling jet ① on the front of the hair dryer such that it engages and is seated firmly into place.
If you want to dry your hair very gently, or use the dryer with so-called "air-dried permis", attach the finger diffuser ③. First remove the styling jet ①, if it is fitted, and then attach the finger diffusor ⑧, such that it engages and is seated firmly into place.
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 or level of the heat level switch.

Cleaning

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

Always remove the mains plug from the socket before you clean the appliance.
Under no circumstances may you immerse the appliance in water or other liquids when cleaning it!
After being cleaned, the hair dryer must be completely dry before using it again.

WARNING - RISK OF PHYSICAL INJURY!

• Allow the appliance to cool sufficiently before cleaning it.

CAUTION - PROPERTY DAMAGE!

• Do not use any aggressive cleaning liquids or solvents. They could damage the surface.

Cleaning the housing

GB

Use a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild soap solution to clean the housing and attachments.
Please dry everything off properly before using the appliance again.

Cleaning the air suction grill

WARNING - RISK OF FIRE!

Clean the air intake grill 3 at regular intervals with a soft brush.

1) Turn the air intake grille 3 slightly so that it can be removed 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 grille ③ slightly so that it engages and is firmly seated on the housing.

Storage

CAUTION - PROPERTY DAMAGE!

• First pack and transport the hair dryer when it has completely cooled down. Otherwise, it could damage other items.
  Clean the hair dryer as described in the section "Cleaning".
  Retract the cord by pressing the cord retract button 2.
  Store the hair dryer at a dustfree and dry location.

Troubleshooting

Should your hair dryer not function as expected, fi rst remove the plug from the mains power socket and allow the appliance to cool down for a few minutes. The appliance is fit tted with an overheating protector!
