25. This device includes over-temperature sensors. If the unit becomes overheated during
use, the heater will stop and the Lighted Handle will blink quickly.
If the unit continues to overheat due to a dirty or clogged lter, the heat and the Reverse-
Air motor will shut down until the unit has cooled sufciently.
26. Hair sections too large can limit airow and result in the heater turning off by triggering
the over-temperature sensor. If the heater turns off, the unit will continue to operate,

Using Your RevAir Device
Before you get started
Designed to work on all hair types, RevAir’s patented technology is customizable so you can achieve
the best results for your unique hair. When considering your hair type; wavy, curly, coily, or straight,
also consider its length, width, and density.
Think too about the hair’s porosity - is it damaged by chemical treatments such as coloring, bleaching,
or relaxing? These are all important factors in determining the Reverse-Air speed and heat levels
needed to produce the best results for your unique hair. Be prepared to experiment a bit to get it
perfect for your hair type.
Unwind the electric cord from the Cord Wrap
Plate. The plug is equipped with an ALCI safety
feature.
Press the TEST button - you will hear a click, and
the RESET button will pop out. Press RESET
and you are ready to insert the plug into a wall
outlet.
Only insert into a 120V/60hz 15amp outlet.
On the back of the device, there is a Circuit
Breaker.
Should there be a power surge or short, the
breaker will trip, turning off the power to the unit.
The face will be white when it is tripped. If this
happens, unplug the unit from the wall and push
to reset the breaker.
If the issue continues, contact
support@myrevair.com or (440) 462-6100.

Powering RevAir
Once the Base Unit is plugged in, the device is
now ready to be powered on.
Locate the Main Power On/Off Switch at the
top of the Base Unit directly below the Handle.
Once switched to the On position, the Handle
will illuminate.

The effectiveness of Reverse-Air means less
heat is needed than blow-drying. So, even on
high ( II ), RevAir heat is relatively low.
Still, your hair may require even less, so
we recommend you experiment with both
high ( II ) and low ( I ) settings.
As a nishing step, turning heat to the no heat
setting ( O ) duplicates the cold shot found on
most blow dryers.
Note: The Wand includes an internal sensor to
monitor heat levels minimizing heat exposure.
The heat will not turn on unless the Base Unit is
powered on.
II = High Temperature (800 watts)
O= No Heat | Cold Shot
I = Low Temperature (400 watts)
Temperature Control (heat level settings)
Using Your RevAir Device
Reverse-Air provides the tension needed to stretch
and straighten hair. Different hair types require
different levels of Reverse-Air speed/tension. If
the speed is too high for your hair, it could slightly
tangle therefore it is important to experiment to nd
personalized settings that work best for you.
In general, healthy and thicker hair (thick strands)
tend to work well on higher levels. Those same levels
may not suit damaged or ne hair (thin strands). Also,
shorter hair may manage better than longer hair at
higher levels. There are no rules to Rev, so start low
and slow and test your way up.
Testing the Tensions Settings:
We recommend you begin with clean, towel-dried
hair. Before feeding hair into the powered-on
device, be sure the Reverse-Air Speed is set no higher than Level 2.
After 10 seconds, pull the hair out of the wand to check the level of dryness and to and to see if any
tangles are beginning to form at the end of the section.
If you do not see any tangles forming, and think you need additional tension, move up to the next
speed setting for an additional 10 seconds. Repeat until you nd your ideal tension level.

How you Rev is likely to be as unique as your hair. So, take your time exploring different techniques
to see what works best for you.
First, determine your best heat and speed level settings*. Next, follow these steps to Rev
your hair: *See “Before You Get Started” section on page 11 to determine your best Rev settings.
• Detangle & comb through freshly washed and conditioned hair.
• Section your hair. Think through your section pattern and either
pre-clip or manage your sections as you progress.
• RevAir works best on clean, damp hair in conjunction with any
Tribology hair primer.
• CAUTION: Prior to using RevAir, any leave-in product should be
applied sparingly. Do not saturate the hair with leave-in hair care
products or water to the point of dripping. Do not apply oils or
sticky xatives to the hair prior to Reving. Any excess substance
on or in the device can cause damage and void your warranty.
• Power on the Base Unit. Set the Temperature Control (Wand) and
Reverse-Air Speed Dial (Base Unit) to the level ideal to your hair
How to Rev Your Hair
The Wand includes a sensor to
monitor heat levels. Should a
section of hair be too large in
volume, the Heat Chamber will shut
down indicating the section size
should be reduced.
Removing the section of hair from
the Wand will allow cooling. Simply
remove the section and retry with
less hair. The Heat Chamber will
resume automatically.
Note: The shut-o will be indicated
by a noticeable change in sound
from the Heat Chamber Blower
during use.
TROUBLESHOOTING TIP
NO HEAT? With the Wand set to ( I) or ( II ), and the Base powered on, if you
do not feel any heat at the Wand Mouth, double-check your Wand to Hose
connections are secure. See pages 19-20 for Wand connection troubleshooting.
If you continue to experience issues, please email support@myrevair.com
or visit support.myrevair.com.

Another option for storage is to leave the Base
Unit where it is used and place the Wand into the
RevAir Get a Grip Wand Holder (sold separately).
Learn more at myrevair.com.
Storing Your RevAir
To store your RevAir once nished, wrap the Hose
twice around the Base Unit going clockwise. The
Wand should reach the Wand Docking Hook
on the left side of the Base Unit.
Secure the Wand to the Wand Docking Hook
via the Wand Docking Groove on the right side
of the Wand.
How to Rev Your Hair
type and condition. CAUTION: When using Reverse-Air speed Level 1, use Low ( l) or No
Heat ( O) only. High Heat ( II ) should only be used when Reverse-Air Speed Dial is set at
Level 2 or higher.
• Take your rst section – gathered from about a 3-inch by 3-inch area of scalp, slightly more
or less depending on how dense/thick your hair is. Too much hair will limit the airow while
too little hair will compromise the Reverse-Air velocity and smooth ow. Those with average
hair density are likely to be able to complete their head in 7-10 sections.
• Feed the section of hair into the Wand until the Wand Mouth reaches your scalp. Slowly
move the Wand mouth across the scalp, or lightly dab, as to reach all the roots of that
section. The heat generated from the Wand kept rm or close to your scalp, will dry the
section’s full length.
• Do not pump the Wand, repeatedly moving the Wand up and down the length of the hair is
not necessary, and may compromise smooth airow along with your nal results.
• Drying time varies by hair type and texture, but the common range is from 30 to 90 seconds
per section.
• After about 30 seconds, pull the Wand about 2 inches from the scalp to feel if the root is still
damp. When dry pull the Wand away allowing the section to fall free. Repeat this process
section by section until complete.
• Note: Hair should not be left in the Wand for more than 120 seconds continuously. Check
hair periodically throughout the drying process.
• Pro Tip: For added volume, we recommend Reving one section at the crown by pulling the
section slightly forward and straight up.
