The IONIC function The IONIC function facilitates gentle, easy hair styling by preventing a static charge in the hair. It uses the build-up of a negative ‘ion-cloud’ to prevent ‘fl yaway’ hair caused by a positive charge. The IONIC function is automatically enabled; its effect is enhanced by the ceramic-coated air outlet grille Styling nozzle The styling nozzle can be fi tted to the air outlet to facilitate shaping the hair during blow drying. Volume diffusor The volume diffusor is also fi tted to the air outlet. The volume diffusor is useful for maintaining the volume and natural look of curly hair. Move the diffusor with a slightly circular motion over the head. Air-fl ow and temperature controls By using different combinations of the air-fl ow and temperature controls, various settings are possible when drying the hair. The air-fl ow control regulates the air-fl ow intensity, while the temperature control regulates the heat of the air-fl ow. With the air-fl ow control set to the ‘0’-position, the hair-dryer is switched off. Cool function The cool function can be used at any time during the drying process. It will supply cooler air, which helps fi rming and shaping the hair. Operation Connect the hair dryer to a suitable wall socket and select the desired power setting with the switches integrated in the handle.
