Getting started

dyson Airstrait Straightener - Getting started

Using your straightener

Your straightener is designed to be used with towel-dried hair, not dripping wet hair. Once towel-dried, detangle your hair with a brush or comb.
Your straightener should never be used without the fan motor on.
Straightening from wet
Before starting to straighten your hair, dry your roots with the arms of your straightener closed. You can use your straightener with the arms locked or just hold them closed.
For the optimum experience, use maximum airflow and a higher temperature, and direct the airflow towards your roots.

Unlock the arms and use the Mode select button to set your straightener to Wet mode.
Your straightener will give you a choice of temperatures that you can change according to your hair type and styling preference. Use lower temperatures for finer hair, and higher temperatures for thicker hair.
Hold your straightener so that the airflow is directed downwards and start to pass sections of hair through the arms. Repeat until each section is dry. Change the airflow and temperature settings as required.

Idle mode may cause lights to dim
High power appliances, such as your Dyson Airstrait™ straightener, may cause lights in your home to flicker or dim.
They draw more electricity, which temporarily takes power away from other appliances on the same circuit.
If light dimming occurs when using your straightener, try plugging in to a different outlet and circuit.
A professional can help to identify suitable outlets.

Cleaning your machine

Your straightener has been precisely engineered. To maintain outstanding styling performance, it needs to be kept free from hair product residue and debris. A little regular maintenance will optimise performance.

Cleaning the filter

Remove the filter
Unplug your straightener and let it cool down before cleaning your filter.
Hold the body of your straightener with one hand and the perforated filter unit with the other. Pull down on the filter unit to release it from the machine and onto the cable.
Gently pull the filter open and slide it off the cable.

Leave the filter unit to soak in warm, soapy water for at least 30 minutes.

Cleaning the tension bars

Over time, hair product residue may build up on the tension bars. These bars sit at the top of the inside of each arm and it’s important to keep them clean and free from debris.
Use a soft-bristled toothbrush and a small amount of warm water to brush away any debris. Dry with a clean, lint-free cloth.

Cleaning the diffusers

The diffusers are attached to the sides of the straightener’s arms.
We recommend these are kept clean, free from debris and hair product residue. This will keep them functioning effectively.
Ensure machine is switched off then slide the diffusers off the ends of the arms. Use a damp, lint-free cloth to remove any debris and hair product residue. You can also use a soft-bristled toothbrush to remove any stubborn residue.
Refit the diffusers to the arms once clean and fully dry. We recommend that you don’t use your straightener without the diffusers attached.
