Signs and symbols
The following symbols are used in these instructions for use, on the packaging and the type plate for the device:

Intended purpose

Gently untangle and simultaneously quickly and gently straighten your hair using the Beurer HS 60 hair straightening brush. The hair straightening brush also has an integrated ion function. The hair straightening brush produces negative ions that counteract the static charge of your hair. This prevents hair from becoming statically charged and sticking out.

The hair straightening brush has 9 temperature settings from 120°C to 200°C. Thanks to the 9-step temperature regulation, you can select the correct temperature for your hair type. The button lock prevents the temperature from being adjusted unintentionally. A short heat-up phase means that the hair straightening brush is ready for use in minutes. The automatic switch-off protects the device against overheating.
