Get Protected There’s one rule when you expose your hair to heat- the hair must be protected. This product guards against heat and friction to keep your hair shiny and incredibly soft. It’s a fantastic tool for instantly transforming all hair textures, enhancing strands’ flexibility to reform and hold shape. Our stylist agree, “It’s the one product you need on a trip”. Our Stylists Suggest: Spray liberally 6-8 inches away from mid-shaft to the ends. Use both on damp hair before you blow-dry and on dry hair before curling or flat ironing o shield hair from damaging heat.

Este producto protege el cabello del calor y de la fricción para que tenga un pelo increíblemente suave y brillante. Es una herramienta perfecta para transformar al instante todo tipo de cabellos, aumentando la flexibilidad del pelo para moldear su forma y mantenerla. Nuestro estilista añade que “es el producto necesario en los viajes”. La sugerencia de nuestro estilista: Aplíquelo generosamente a una distancia de 15-20 cm de la mitad del cabello a las puntas. Utilícelo en el pelo húmedo antes de secarlo y en el pelo seco antes de moldearlo o plancharlo para que proteja el cabello del calor

Operating instructions

This appliance is intended for household use

only. Use an Alternating Current (60 hertz) only. Standard dryers are designed to operate at 110 to 125V AC. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade

is wider than the other). As a safety feature, this

plug ts in a polarized outlet only one way. If

the plug does not t fully in the outlet, reverse

the plug. If it still does not t, contact a qualied

electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.

IMPORTANT

1875 WATT OPERATING GUIDE

Use of this dryer on the same circuit or fuse

with other electrical products or appliances may trip a 15 amp circuit breaker or blow a 15 amp fuse. NEVER replace the fuse with

one rated higher than the capacity of the circuit. Doing so could result in an

electrical re.

This appliance is equipped with an Appliance

Leakage Circuit Interrupter (ALCI), a safety feature that renders it inoperable under some abnormal conditions, such as immersion in water. To make sure that the ALCI functions properly, perform the test described below. The purpose of this test is to allow you to make sure the water sensing system (ALCI) is working. REPEAT THIS

TEST EVERY TIME YOU USE THE APPLIANCE TO CONFIRM THE ALCI IS OPERATIONAL (Fig. 1).

1 Plug in the appliance and press the ‘test’

button on the plug. The appliance stops working. You hear a click

and the reset button pops up.

2 Unplug the appliance. 3 Press the reset button and put the plug back

into the outlet.

4 If the ALCI does not function properly or if

immersion occurs, do not try to reset. Call 1-800-243-7884 for assistance.

Note: If the appliance turns off and the reset

button pops up during use, the appliance could be

malfunctioning. Remove the plug from the outlet and

let the appliance cool down. Then reinsert the plug

into the outlet. The appliance should now function

normally. If not, call 1-800-243-7884.

Overheat protection

If overheating occurs, an automatic safety device shuts off the hairdryer or the heat to prevent damage or personal injury. If the hairdryer or the heat shuts off, unplug the appliance and let it cool down for 10 to 15 minutes before you use the appliance again. Make sure the air grilles are clean.

Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase and welcome

to Philips! To fully benet from the support that

Philips offers, register your product at www.philips. com/welcome. The TRESemmé Philips Thermal Creations dryer is a powerful hairdryer with a professional design and performance. Moreover, this hairdryer has features that protect your hair from damage and give you the reassurance of the best results. The ion function produces negatively charged ions,

which prevent static and yaway hair, leaving it

manageable and shiny. Next to the ion function, this hairdryer contains a Nano-diamond ceramic element that produces a gentler warmth than a conventional heating element, thus protecting your hair from overdrying.

Drying

1 Plug the appliance into an electrical outlet. 2 Settheairowswitchtothegentleorhigh

setting to turn on the appliance.

3 Set the temperature switch to the cool, warm

or hot setting.

4 Turn the ion function on or off with the

ion slide switch.

The ion function reduces frizz and static electricity and is particularly suitable for almost-dry hair.

Note: You may notice a characteristic odor when

you turn on the ion function. This odor is a normal

occurrence caused by the ions that are generated.

5 To dry your hair, make brushing movements

with the hairdryer at a small distance from your hair (Fig. 3).

Tip: When you have nished drying each section, press

the cold shot button and direct the cool airow at

your hair. This xes your style and adds shine.

Concentrator

The concentrator enables you to direct the airow

straight at the brush or comb with which you style your hair.

1 Snap the concentrator onto the

appliance. (Fig. 4)

To disconnect the concentrator, pull it off the appliance.

Cleaning and maintenance

This hairdryer is virtually maintenance-free. No lubrication is needed. For proper operating performance, the hairdryer must be kept clean. When cleaning is needed:

1 Turn off and unplug the appliance. 2 Let the appliance cool down in a safe, dry

place out of the reach of children.

3 Remove dust and lint from the air outlet and

inlet grilles with a small brush or the brush

attachment of a vacuum cleaner. Blocked air outlet and inlet grilles cause the hairdryer to overheat. Make sure you keep the air inlet and outlet grilles clean.

4 Wipe the outer surface of the hairdryer with

a dry cloth. Never immerse the appliance in water or any other liquid, nor rinse it under the faucet.

There are no other user-serviceable parts. For assistance, call 1-800-243-7884.

Storage

Caution: Never allow the power cord to be pulled or twisted, or severely bent. Never wrap the cord tightly around the hairdryer. Damage will occur at the point of entry into the hairdryer, causing it to rupture and short. Inspect the cord frequently for damage. Stop use immediately if damage is visible or if the hairdryer stops or

operates intermittently. If the cord or hairdryer is damaged or does not operate properly, stop using it and call 1-800-243-7884 for assistance.

1 Turn off and unplug the appliance. 2 Let the appliance cool down in a safe,

dry place out of the reach of children.

3 Store the appliance in a safe, dry location. Do

not hang the appliance by its cord. Do not put any stress on the cord, as this could cause the cord to fray and break.
