  5. Power Connection: Plug the power cord into a suitable electrical outlet. Ensure the voltage matches the specifications of the dryer.

6. Operating Instructions

Before use, ensure your hair is towel-dried. For optimal results and hair protection, always apply a heat protectant product.

  1. Power On/Off: Slide the power button to turn the dryer ON or OFF.
  2. Adjust Heat Settings: Use the temperature control buttons to cycle through the available heat settings (e.g., cool, warm, hot). The LED screen will display the selected temperature.
  3. Adjust Speed Settings: Use the speed control buttons to adjust the airflow intensity.
  4. Lock Mode: The dryer features a lock mode to maintain your preferred temperature and speed settings during use. Refer to the on-screen indicators for activation.
  5. Using Concentrators: For precise styling and straightening, attach either the small or wide concentrator. Direct the airflow down the hair shaft from roots to ends.
  6. Using the Diffuser: For enhancing natural curls and waves, attach the diffuser. Gently cup sections of hair with the diffuser, lifting towards the scalp. Use a low heat and speed setting for best results.
  7. Cool Shot: Press and hold the cool shot button to deliver a burst of cool air. This helps to set your style and add shine by closing the hair cuticles.
