introduction
The new Philips SalonStraight Active Ion provides super-
shiny straightening results. The ioniser generates streams
of negative ions that surround and condition your hair.
Ions reduce frizz and static electricity and leave your hair
looking soft, smooth and shiny.

Danger
-
Keep the appliance away from water. Do not use it
near or over water contained in baths, washbasins,
sinks etc. When you use the appliance in a bathroom,
unplug it after use. The proximity of water presents a
risk, even when the appliance is switched off.

Check if the voltage indicated on the appliance
corresponds to the local mains voltage before you
connect the appliance.
-
Check the condition of the mains cord regularly. Do
not use the appliance if the plug, the mains cord or
the appliance itself is damaged.
-
If the mains cord is damaged, you must have it
replaced by Philips, a service centre authorised by
Philips or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid
a hazard.

For additional protection, we advise you to install a
residual current device (RCD) in the electrical circuit
that supplies the bathroom. This RCD must have a
rated residual operating current not higher than
30mA. Ask your installer for advice.
-
The straightening plates and the plastic parts near
the plates reach a high temperature quickly. Prevent
the hot surfaces of the appliance from coming into
contact with your skin.

-
Do not wind the mains cord round the appliance.
-
Wait until the appliance has cooled down before you

-
The ceramic coating on the plates slowly wears away
over time. This does not affect the performance of
the appliance.
-
If you use the appliance on colour-treated hair,
the straightening plates may stain.
-
The maximum temperature occurs just after heating
up. The actual temperature during use may be lower.
Electromagnetic fields (EMF)

manual, the appliance is safe to use based on scientific
evidence available today.
Preparing for use
Washing your hair
Everybody wants shiny and beautiful hair. A good hair-
washing routine can help to achieve this.
1
Wet your hair thoroughly for 30-60 seconds.
2
Pour some shampoo into the palm of your hand.
Spread it between your hands and distribute it
evenly through the hair.
3
Gently massage your hair and scalp. Do not rough
up the hair or pull up long hair onto the scalp, as
this may cause tangles.
4
Massage your scalp with your fingertips. This
stimulates blood circulation and is gentler to the
hair cuticles.
5
Rinse your hair thoroughly, as poor rinsing can
result in dull hair. Finish with a cold rinse for extra
shine.
Drying your hair
To get super-smooth results, it is essential to prepare your
hair for straightening. Dry your hair with a hairdryer until
it is dry or almost dry to ensure a professional, smooth
finish.
1
After washing, squeeze excess water out of the hair
with your hands and then towel-dry the hair. Use a
comb to disentangle the hair gently from the roots
to the tips.
2
Divide the hair into sections using clips. Start at the
back.
3
To dry each section, pull a straightening brush
down the hair length. Follow the brush with the
hairdryer, with its nozzle pointing towards the hair
ends.
4
When you have finished drying each section, set the
hairdryer to the cool setting for a final cool shot.
This closes the cuticles and adds shine to the hair.
Tip: Philips SalonPro hairdryers have a lower drying
temperature and a stronger airflow than regular dryers.
Thanks to this combination, they dry just as quickly as
regular hairdryers but in a gentler way
Using the appliance
straightening your hair
Straighteners are powerful styling tools and must always
be used with care.
As with all straighteners that reach salon-high
temperatures, do not use the appliance frequently to
avoid damage to the hair. If you use the straightener
incorrectly, you could overheat your hair or even burn it.
Always follow the steps below:
1
Put the plug in the wall socket.
2
Push the on/off slide to 'ON'.
The power-on light goes on (Fig. 2).
,
The straightening plates heat up rapidly and are
,
ready for use within 90 seconds.
Never leave the appliance unattended when it is plugged
in. Never put the appliance on a surface that is not heat-
resistant when it is heating up and when it is hot.
Tip: If you lock the plates with the closing lock, the
straightener heats up more quickly.
3
Comb or brush your hair so that it is disentangled
and smooth. (Fig. 3)
4
Use a comb to divide the hair into sections. Do not
put too much hair in one section.
Tip: It is better to section off the crown area and to
straighten the hair underneath first, followed by the top area.
5
Take a section that is not wider than 4cm. Place
it between the straightening plates and press the
handles of the appliance firmly together.
6
Slide the straightener down the length of the hair in
5 seconds, from root to hair end, without stopping
to prevent overheating (Fig. 4).
7
Repeat this process after 20 seconds until you have
achieved the desired look.
8
Let your hair cool down. Do not comb or brush it
before it has cooled down, as this would ruin the
hairstyle you have just created.
9
Push the on/off slide to 'OFF' and unplug the
appliance after use. Put the appliance on a heat-
resistant surface.
Cleaning
1
Make sure the appliance is switched off and
unplugged.
2
Let the appliance cool down completely on a heat-
resistant surface.
3
Clean the appliance with a damp cloth.
storage
Never wind the mains cord round the appliance.
1
Make sure the appliance is switched off and
unplugged.

surface before you store it.
3
Use the closing lock to lock the straightening plates
together before you store the appliance.
