Read these instructions for use carefully before using the appliance and
save them for future reference.

the local mains voltage before you connect the appliance.
◗If the mains cord is damaged, it must be replaced by Philips, a
service centre authorised by Philips or similarly qualified persons

current device (RCD) with a rated residual operating current not
exceeding 30mA in the electrical circuit supplying the bathroom.
Ask your installer for advice.

Preparing for use
Hair
1The Salon Airstylist is most effective when the hair is slightly
damp. Slightly dampen your hair if it is dry.
Never use the appliance on wet hair!
2Comb or brush the hair so that it is untangled and smooth. Use a
comb to divide the hair into locks. Do not put too much hair in
one lock.

Connecting and disconnecting attachments
Do not insert the mains plug into the wall socket until after you have
connected the attachment.
1Connect the attachment to the styler by aligning the arrows on
the attachment with the arrows on the styler and pressing the
attachment home ('click') (fig. 2).
2To remove the attachment from the appliance, press the release
button (1) and pull the attachment in the direction of the arrow

Using the appliance
Making curls
We advise you to perform a curl test to determine how long the brush
should be held in your hair to achieve a good result. Start with 8 to 10
seconds.You may have to hold the brush in your hair longer for tighter
curls. Less tight curls will require less than 8 seconds.
1Snap the retractable bristle brush onto the appliance (see chapter
'Preparing for use').
2Divide the hair into locks.
3Take a lock of hair and wind it round the brush. Make sure the
end of the lock is wound in the required direction.
- Do not wind too much hair round the brush at a time.
- Do not wind a lock of hair more than twice round the brush.
- The thinner the lock of hair, the tighter the curl will be.
- Make sure the lock of hair is in contact with the barrel of the brush.
◗If you wind the hair at right angles to the scalp, you will give your
hair optimum lift and volume.
4Switch the appliance on by selecting the preferred setting: (fig. 4).
- I: gentle airflow for easy styling
- II: warm airflow for fast styling

5Keep the brush in your hair until the hair is warm to the touch.
6Switch the appliance off and remove the brush from your hair by
pressing the bristle retraction knob and turning it in the direction
of the arrows (fig. 5).
7Let the curls cool down before combing, brushing or finger-
combing the hair to finish your style.
8When you have finished curling, switch the appliance off and
remove the brush (see chapter 'Preparing for use').
Shaping your hair
1Snap the shaping brush onto the appliance (see chapter 'Preparing
for use').
2Insert the brush pins into your hair until they touch your scalp.
3Switch the appliance on by selecting setting I or II.
4Lift a lock of hair at the roots on the sides of your head and
move the brush along the lock from root to tip.This technique
will tame stray ends and help promote shine and softness.
