Important Safety Information
Please read all instructions carefully before using this appliance. Failure to follow these safety guidelines may result in electric shock, fire, or personal injury.
- Electrical Safety: This unit is designed for 110-120 Volt USA outlets only. DO NOT use a voltage converter or adapter as it will damage the unit and poses a safety risk. The appliance is equipped with an ALCI (Appliance Leakage Current Interrupter) safety plug, which is a critical safety feature. Test the ALCI plug before each use by pressing the "TEST" button, then the "RESET" button. If it does not reset, do not use the appliance.
- Water Hazard: DO NOT use this appliance in bathrooms or places with high moisture concentration. Keep away from water. Do not immerse in water or use while bathing. If the appliance falls into water, unplug it immediately. Do not reach into water.
- Burn Hazard: The heated bristles and barrel can become very hot. NEVER let heated bristles touch your skin, ears, fingers, or any part of your body. Allow the appliance to cool completely before storing.
- Children: Keep out of reach of children. This appliance is not intended for use by children. Cleaning and user maintenance should not be performed by children without supervision.
- Cord Care: Do not wrap the power cord around the appliance. This can damage the cord and lead to electrical failure. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent, or similarly qualified persons to avoid a hazard.
- Ventilation: Ensure the air vents are not blocked during use to prevent overheating.

Operating Instructions
Follow these steps for effective and safe styling:
- Prepare Hair: For best results, towel-dry your hair to remove excess water. The brush works most effectively on damp, not soaking wet, hair. Detangle your hair before styling.
- Select Setting: Rotate the control dial at the bottom of the handle to select your desired heat and speed setting:
- COOL: Cool air with high speed, ideal for setting styles.
- LOW: Warm air with low speed, suitable for fine or damaged hair.
- HIGH: Hot air with high speed, for quick drying and styling thicker hair.

- Section Hair: Divide your hair into manageable sections using clips.
- Styling Technique:
- Place the brush close to the roots and brush downwards towards the ends.
- The unique oval-shaped barrel and 360° airflow allow for efficient drying and styling.
- For added volume, place the brush near the roots and roll it upwards, holding for a few seconds before releasing.
- The combination of Nylon Pin & Tufted Bristles helps to detangle hair, improve volume, and add shine while preventing scalp irritation.
