OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Before plugging in check the voltage on the rating label, corresponds to
the local mains voltage.
2. As a general guide, use the HIGH heat and speed setting for rough
drying for thicker hair, and the LOW setting for finer hair and more
precise control when styling. The cool setting can be used at the end to
set the style.
3. Wash and condition the hair, then gently towel dry hair to remove
excess water. DO NOT use the hair dryer on hair that is dripping wet.
4. Start styling at the back of the hair and work forwards.
5. Do not concentrate the airflow on any one area for an extended period
of time.
