Technical data

Safety instructions

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

•  Connect the hair dryer only to a correctly installed mains power socket providing electrical energy at the level detailed on the rating plate.
•  Under no circumstances may the hair dryer be submerged in fluids, or fluids be permitted to enter the appliance housing. Do not expose the appliance to humidity and do not use it outdoors. Should liquids enter the housing, disconnect the appliance from the power source immediately and arrange for it to be repaired by a qualified technician.
•  Disconnect the hair dryer from the mains power socket if defective operation is apparent and before cleaning it.
•  To disconnect it, pull only on the plug itself, not on the power cable.
•  Do not wrap the power cable around the appliance and protect the cable from being damaged.
•  Should the power cable of the appliance be damaged, to avoid potential risks it must be replaced by the manufacturer, his customer service or by a qualified technician.
•  Do not kink or crush the power cable and lay it in such a way as to prevent people from stepping on or tripping over it.
•  Do not use extension cables.
•  Never touch the hair dryer, the power cable or the plug with wet hands.
•  Disconnect the hair dryer from the power source immediately after use. The appliance is completely free of electrical power only when you unplug it.
•  You are not permitted to open or repair the housing of the hair dryer. Should you do so, appliance safety can no longer be assured and the warranty will become void. Arrange for the hair dryer to be serviced and repaired only by qualified specialists.
• Never use the appliance near water, particularly not near sinks, baths or other vessels. The proximity of water presents a risk, even when the appliance is switched off. After use, always disconnect the plug from the mains power socket. As additional protection, the installation of a faulty-current protection unit with an activation power rating of not more than 30 mA is recommended for the power circuit in the bathroom. Consult your electrician for advice.
• If the hairdryer is being used in the bathroom, disconnect the plug from the mains power socket after use, as the close proximity of water represents a hazard – even when the hairdryer is switched off.

WARNING! RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY!

•  This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.
•  Children shall not play with the appliance.
•  Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.
•  When it is switched on, NEVER lay the hair dryer down or leave it unsupervised.
•  Never place the hair dryer close to sources of heat and protect the power cable against potential damage.
•  Do not take the hair dryer into use if it has fallen down or is damaged in any way. Arrange for the appliance to be checked and/or repaired by qualified technicians.
•  Do not cover the air intake grill while operating the appliance. Clean the grill at regular intervals.
•  The hair dryer becomes hot when it is in use. Hold it only by the grip when it is hot.

Operation

NOTICE

• Before using the appliance for the first time, run it at the highest heat and blower level for approx. 2 minutes (see “Heat and blower levels”). This re-moves manufacturing residue on the heating elements inside the appliance.

Heat and blower levels

1.  Insert the plug into a power socket.
2.  Switch the hair dryer on with the blower level switch 4.

The hair dryer is fitted with two function switches. With these you can separately select the strength of the air flow (blower level switch 4) and the level of heat (heat level switch

Blower levels

After use, switch the appliance off in that you place the blower level switch 4 into position “0”. Then remove the plug from the wall socket.

Cooling level

With the cooling level button 6 you can produce a cooler air flow with any combination of blower and heat levels (except level “0”). If you wish to create a cold air stream, press and hold the cooling level button 6 . When you no longer need the cold air stream, release the cooling level button 6 .

Ionization function

This hairdryer is fitted with an ionization function. If hair is dried using a normal hairdryer, the hair becomes charged statically and starts to “fly”. The ionization function ensures that this charging of the hair is neutralized and cancelled. The hair becomes soft, supple, shiny and easier to style.
Please note, however, that the ionization function will only work optimally if the attachments (finger diffuser 7/ styling jet 1) are removed as the attachment will interfere with the application of the ions to the hair. Therefore, use the hairdryer without attachments for maximum ionization effect.

Drying and styling hair

•  To quickly dry hair, we recommend first of all using a high blower and heater setting for a short period. After drying the hair, switch to a lower blower and heat level to shape the hairstyle.

•  With the supplied styling jet 1 you can apply a directed airflow to shape and style your hair. Start by removing the finger diffuser 7 first with a downwards snapping motion. Fit the styling jet 1 by pushing it with light pressure onto the hair dryer so that it snaps into place and sits evenly on the hair dryer.
  If you no longer require the styling jet 1, wait until the appliance has cooled down and pull it off with a downwards snapping motion:

• If you wish to dry your hair especially gently, or create a so-called “air-dried wave”, then use the finger diffusor 7. Start by removing the styling jet 1 with a downwards snapping motion.
  Fit the finger diffusor 7 by pushing it with light pressure onto the hair dryer so that it snaps into place and sits evenly on the hair dryer. If you no longer require the finger diffusor 7, wait until the appliance has cooled down and pull it off with a downwards snapping motion:

• Before you comb your hair out, allow it to cool so that the shaping and styling can retain its form.

• You can use the cooling level button 6 to cool down your hair down.

Cleaning

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

•  Always remove the mains plug from the socket before you clean the appliance.

•  Under no circumstances may you immerse the appliance in water or other liquids when cleaning it!

• After being cleaned, the hair dryer must be completely dry before using it again.
  WARNING – RISK OF PHYSICAL INJURY!
  

• Allow the appliance to cool sufficiently before cleaning it.
  CAUTION – PROPERTY DAMAGE!

• Do not use any aggressive cleaning liquids or solvents. They could damage the surface.

Cleaning the housing

Use a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild soap solution to clean the housing and attachments.

Cleaning the air suction grill

WARNING – RISK OF FIRE!

Clean the air intake grill 2 at regular intervals with a soft brush.

1. 1 Turn the air intake grill 2 a little way anticlockwise so that it can be removed from the hair dryer.
2.  Clean the openings of the air intake grill 2 with a soft brush.
3.  Push the air intake grille 2 back onto the hairdryer so that the tabs on the air intake grille 2 click back onto the recesses on the hairdryer. Turn the air intake grille 2 clockwise a little way so that it clicks into place and sits tightly.

Storage

CAUTION – PROPERTY DAMAGE!

• First pack and transport the hair dryer when it has completely cooled down. Otherwise, it could damage other items.
•  Clean the hair dryer as described in the section “Cleaning”.
•  For storage purposes, you can hang the hairdryer up by the suspension loop 3.
•  Store the hair dryer at a dust free and dry location.

Troubleshooting

Should your hair dryer not function as expected, first remove the plug from the mains power socket and allow the appliance to cool down for a few minutes. The appliance is fitted with an overheating protector! Should the appliance still not function, consult the service department detailed under “Service”.
