GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is for use on a circuit having a nominal rating of 125 volts and is
factory equipped with a specific electric cord and plug to permit connection to

qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
This appliance is equipped with a thermostat that will cycle “OFF” if the
temperature exceeds the comfort level due to a partially blocked air inlet or air
outlet opening. In the event that the appliance stops working during use, turn
off the switches and allow the appliance to cool down so that the thermostat
can automatically reset. During use, do not block the air inlet grille.
PROPER USE
The brush is exclusively designed for human hair care. It is only intended for
household private use and not suitable for commercial purposes.
Only use the brush as described in this user manual. Any other use is
considered improper and may result in damage to property. The brush is not a

Warranty conditions
Dear Customer,
The ALDI warranty offers you extensive benefits compared to the statutory
obligation arising from a warranty:
Warranty period: 3 years from date of purchase.
6 months for wear parts and consumables under nor-
mal and proper conditions of use (e.g. rechargeable
batteries).
Costs: Free repair/exchange or refund.
No transport costs.
Hotline: Free hotline.
ADVICE: Please contact our service hotline by phone, e-mail or
fax before sending in the device. This allows us to pro-
vide support in the event of possible operator errors.
In order to make a claim under the warranty, please send us:
• together with the faulty item, the original receipt and the warranty
card properly completed.
• the faulty product with all components included in the packaging.
The warranty does not cover damage caused by:
• Accident or unanticipated events (e.g. lightning, water, fire).
• Improper use or transport.
• Disregard of the safety and maintenance instructions.
• Other improper treatment or modification.
After the expiry of the warranty period, you still have the possibility to have
your product repaired at your own expense. If the repair or the estimate of
costs is not free of charge you will be informed accordingly in advance.
This warranty does not limit the statutory obligation of the seller arising from
a warranty. The period of warranty can only be extended in accordance with
a legal standard. In countries where a (compulsory) warranty and/or spare
part storage and/or a system for compensation are/is required by law, the
statutory minimum conditions apply. In the event that a product is received
for repair, neither the service company nor the seller will assume any liability
for data or settings possibly stored on the product by the customer.
