Important
• The styling attachments and the inset plates of the "Crimper/
Straightener " will become hot during use. Prevent contact
with the skin. Do not allow the mains cord to touch any hot
parts.
• Never immerse the appliance in water. You may clean it with a
damp cloth, but first remove the plug from the wall socket.
• Washing your hair or using the "Flat plate" of the Crimper/
Straightener attachment will remove the waves and curls.

Making the "Geometricks" MultiStyler ready for use
How to change the styling attachments (fig. 2-6)
• When changing styling attachments during use only touch the plastic
parts. The metal parts are hot!
- To release the styling attachment, turn the clamping ring (C) in the
direction of the arrow (fig. 2).
- Pull the styling attachment from the handle (fig. 3).
- When mounting the required styling attachment, ensure that the
heel rest (F) is at the underside (fig. 4).
- Insert the styling attachment firmly into the main unit (fig. 5).
- Secure by turning the clamping ring (fig. 6).
How to change the Crimper/Straightener inset plates (fig. 7-10)
• Ribbed side: for waves
• Flat side: for straight hair
- Open the Crimper/Straightener by pressing the handle downwards
(fig. 7).
- Take the plate by the cool tips (N) at the front side.
- Pull the plate out of the Crimper/Straightener (fig. 8).
- Turn the plate (fig. 9).
- Insert the plate into the Crimper/Straightener. Ensure that the
protrusions at the sides enter the runners correctly (fig. 10).
Heating up (fig. 11-12)
- Insert the mains plug into the wall socket. The "On"-light (B) will come on
and the styling attachment will heat up (fig. 11).
- When the "Ready"-dot (O) on the styling attachment becomes dark the
appliance is ready for use (fig. 12).
How to use
• Before styling, comb or brush the hair so that it is completely untangled
and smooth.
• Always ensure good contact between hair and styling attachment or
Crimper. For that reason, do not attempt to style thick tresses of hair and
do not double-wind the hair when using the styling attachments.
• You need only 5 - 10 seconds to make a curl or wave.
A setting lotion may be applied after washing the hair.

Styling attachments (fig. 13 - 18)
• Always style small tresses of hair (2 - 3 cm or 1 inch thick).
• For good results, wind a tress around the styling attachment in a spiral
form. The full length of the tress will then be in contact with the hot rod.
• Fix the end of the tress with the clip and wind the hair around the rod
towards the head.
After 5 - 10 seconds open the clip and remove the barrel from the hair.
- With "Spirals" wind the tress following the spiral profile on the styling
attachment.
- With "Curls" wind the hair in straight.
- With the "Brush" a clip is not required as the teeth grip the hair.
• Important: Always ensure that the hair ends are wrapped smoothly
around the barrel of the attachment: this will avoid bent ends.
• You can divide the curls with your fingers to add volume. Especially with
Spirals this will give you a stunning hairstyle.
"Crimper/Straightener" (fig. 19 - 21)
• Take tresses of hair of max. 5 - 6 cm or 2 inches thick.
• The clip enables you to open and close the Crimper/Straightener, so that
you can style a tress of hair section by section.
• Always start crimping or straightening close to the head. Then
successively treat the lower sections.
• You may press the two parts of the Crimper/Straightener together by
using your fingers. (Do not touch the plates!)
• Keep the hair in the Crimper/Straightener for 5-10 seconds. Then open
the Crimper/Straightener to treat the next section of the same tress.
Ensure that there is an overlap!
After use
- After use remove the mains plug from the wall socket.
- Place the appliance with the stand downwards on a safe place and allow
it to cool down.
Replacing the mains cord
If the mains cord of this appliance is damaged, it must only be replaced by
Philips or their service representative, as special tools and/or parts are
required.

For U.K. only:
This appliance is supplied with a non-rewirable 13 Amp. plug. The plug
must never be used without the fuse cover being in place.
If a replacement fuse cover is required, it must be of the same type or
colour as the coloured insert around the fuse cover.
Replacement fuse covers are available from Electrical Retailers or direct
from Philips, tel. 081 - 689 - 2166, ext. 8014.
Replacement 3 Amp. fuses must be BSI or ASTA BS 1362 approved.
Important safety information
If the non-rewirable plug is not suitable for the socket outlets in your home,
it can be removed and replaced by a plug of the correct type.
The non-rewirable plug must be cut from the mains cord, the fuse
removed, and the plug safely discarded to prevent further use.
The removed plug can be hazardous if inserted into a live mains socket.
