Valera Regenera AI Professional Hair Dryer Quick Start Guide
1. Auto Check
The hairdryer automatically performs a self-test cycle of its functions when the plug is inserted and when it is switched off.
Plug-in/Check
Each time the plug is reinserted into the socket (at least 20 seconds after the last time it was removed), the hairdryer automatically checks its functions. The self-checking LED lights flash in quick succession.
Check/Off
When switching off, the motor continues to run for a few seconds to cool down the components. The self-checking LEDs flash in quick succession until the appliance is completely switched off.

2. Turbo Booster
The function provides extra power during drying and styling.
You can instantly increase the airflow by holding down the TURBO BOOSTER button. The airflow is increased to approximately 90 m³/h, even if the hairdryer is already running at approximately 80 m³/h on the highest setting.
Airflow Comparison:
- TURBO BOOSTER: 90 m³/h
- Highest Setting: 80 m³/h
The Turbo Booster function can be activated for a maximum of 2 consecutive minutes.
3. CARE Dual Setting
For hair-type appropriate treatment, two settings - CARE and MAX - are available, each with 9 combinations of temperature and airflow, totaling 18 combinations.
