Notes on Use

This appliance is designed for drying hair and to be a styling aid. You have several options for using it. There are various attachments available to you:

Hair-Dryer Hood

If you wish to dry your hair gently and evenly, attach the hair-dryer hood attachment. Style your hair or put in curlers, as usual. Put on the hair-dryer hood.

NOTE:

• High temperatures can arise in areas with little or no hair between the hair-dryer hood and the skin. Select the correct heat /blowing level.
• Warm air can blow into the ears.
• Oil and grease can leave traces on the hair-dryer hood. Clean these as directed under "Cleaning".

Hair Dryer

If you wish to dry specific sections of your hair only, attach the styling nozzle. That will concentrate the air flow.

Round brush (Curling brush)

If you wish to style your hair curly, attach the round brush. Comb your hair and separate it into single strands. Twist one hair strand around the brush starting from the tips all the way to the hairline. Keep holding the appliance in that position for several seconds until the desired degree of drying and styling has been achieved.
