HOW TO USE
-
Clean the appliance and Nozzles before using. Refer to the section “How to clean and maintain” immediately following this section.
Drying Basics -
Towel dry hair to remove excess moisture. Blot with the towel rather than rub the hair to avoid causing excess frizz and split ends.
-
Comb through and detangle the hair with a wide toothed comb.
-
Turn the ON/OFF & Speed Switch to 0 (using dry hands), plug the power cable and switch it on. Turn on by selecting desired heat setting.
-
Direct the appliance at the hair and not the scalp. Begin by briskly blowing all over the hair to remove excess water using position 3 and the fastest airflow using the Infinity Speed Dial (Full Power & High Temperature).
-
When hair is mostly dry, section the hair and begin to style using position 2 and medium airflow using the Infinity Speed Dial (Half Power & Medium Temperature). Begin at the nape of the neck and brush hair while following the motion with the appliance.
-
Work up to the scalp, sides and front of hair until entire head is dry and desired style in complete.
Hair Concentrator Nozzle -
The removable Hair Concentrator Nozzle allows for styling accuracy and control, whilst creating a more focused and powerful airflow. Point the nozzle at a 90° angle to the section you are drying while brushing under it, working from roots to ends. Keep the
-
Nozzle pointed downward at all times and never let it touch the hair.
Hair Diffuser Nozzle -
The removable Hair Diffuser Nozzle helps to reduce the amount of frizz for all hair types. It enhances curls you already have or, in some cases, discover waves you didn’t even know were there if your hair is typically straight or slightly wavy. Another benefit is the reduced amount of damage to the hair when you use a Diffuser. Lay your curls onto the Diffuser and proceed to dry using position 2 and the slowest airflow using the Infinity Speed Dial. Only work your way up to position 3 and higher and faster airflow using the Infinity Speed Dial if you need to. You can lean your hair over and dry upwards for the length of your hair, and place it near your head to dry your roots as needed.
-
Should the hair dryer stop working for any reason, turn it off at once and let it cool down.
Safety Protection
If the appliance overheats, the thermal switch will be activated, leading to the motor being shut off. Turn the ON/OFF & Speed Switch to ‘0’ (OFF). Switch the appliance off and unplug the power cable from the electric mains. Allow the appliance to cool for at least 15 minutes before using the appliance.
HOW TO CLEAN AND MAINTAIN

- Clean the appliance with a damp cloth. DO NOT immerse the appliance in water or other liquids, and avoid spraying water, in order to avoid damage or leakage.
