Models with IONIC function
The IONIC function facilitates gentle, easy
hair styling by preventing a static charge in
the hair. It uses the build-up of a negative
'ion-cloud' to prevent 'flyaway' hair caused
by a positive charge.
The IONIC function is automatically
enabled during use, irrespective of the switch
settings.
Operation
Switch positions
The appliance is equipped with a 3-position
switch allowing for the following settings:
Functions:
0 = Off
1 = Half power
2 = Full power
For a cooler air-flow, press the cool-air
button 'cool' and slide it forward.
Removing and changing the attachments
●
Always switch the appliance off and
allow it to cool down to room
temperature before changing or
removing any attachments.
- To remove any attachment, press and
hold the lock-/release button on the
housing, rotate the attachment anti-
clockwise until the dot mark is aligned
with the arrow symbol on the housing,
and pull it off from the front.
- To fit any attachment, follow the same
steps in reverse order while applying only
light pressure, making sure the dot mark
is aligned with the arrow symbol. Lock
the attachment in place by turning it
clockwise until both arrow symbols are
aligned.
- Without any attachment fitted, the
appliance can be used as a hair dryer.
Use
- The round brush is designed for shaping
the hair. To achieve this, the hair should
be divided into single strands (not too
thick) and then spread evenly over the
brush, turning them inwards or outwards
as desired.
- Apply for a few seconds at a time only,
while letting the hot air take effect on the
hair. Let the strands uncurl afterwards.
- Let the hair cool down sufficiently before
brushing it out.
Round-brush with retractable bristles
As the hot air heats up the metal cylinder,
the heat emitted has a direct effect on the
hair. The retractable brush is used in the
same way as the round brush. The bristles
can be retracted by moving the slide lock on
the attachment anti-clockwise.
