Basic cleaning

• Remove the packaging material and all protective foils.

• Make sure that the brush adapter is no longer hot before removing it.

Changing the brush adapter

Tip:

Adjust the size of the brush adapter used to the length of your hair. Use the volume brush for long hair and the round brush for shorter hair.

This hair volume styler includes two different brush adapters 3 and 4, which can be changed as desired. To do so, proceed as follows:

1. Make sure that the mains plug has been pulled.
2. Make sure that the function switch 7 is set to the 0 position (see fig. D).

3. Turn the locking ring 2 to the right and take the brush adapter 3 or 4 off (see fig. A and B).

4. Attach the desired brush adapter to the hand piece 5 (see fig. A and B).

5. Turn the locking ring to the left. The brush adapter will audibly lock into place. The arrow on the hand piece is under the arrow on the locking ring (see fig. B).

You can now use the hair volume styler.
