Introduction
.
This new Philips Duometricks Straight has been specially designed to give
beautiful results in a controlled and gentle way. The micro-glide structure of
the straightening plates increases the grip on your hair, offering you greater
control over the process of straightening. The removable comb attachment
guides the straightener through the hair optimally. The steam function
allows you to straighten your hair in a gentle way to give it a healthy and
shiny look. With the crimper plates you can add texture to your hair to
create an interesting look.
Important
.
Read these instructions for use carefully before using the appliance and save
them for future reference.
Check if the voltage indicated on the appliance corresponds to the
local mains voltage before you connect the appliance.
Check the condition of the mains cord regularly. Do not use the
appliance if the plug, the cord or the appliance itself is damaged.
If the mains cord is damaged, this appliance must be discarded.
Keep this appliance away from water! Do not use this product near
or over water contained in baths, washbasins, sinks etc. When used
in a bathroom, unplug the appliance after use since the proximity of
water presents a risk.
For additional protection, we advise you to install a residual current
device (RCD) with a rated residual operating current not exceeding
30mA in the electrical circuit supplying the bathroom. Ask your
installer for advice.
If the appliance overheats, it will switch off automatically. Unplug the
appliance and let it cool down for a few minutes.
Keep the appliance out of the reach of children.
Only use the appliance on dry or damp hair.
The plates of the appliance become hot during use. Prevent contact
with the skin.
Always unplug the appliance after use.
Wait until the appliance has cooled down before storing it.
Do not wind the mains cord round the appliance.
Preparing for use
.
1 Snap the micro-glide plates or crimper plates onto the appliance (fig.
1).
2 When you have put the micro-glide plates on the appliance, snap the
removable comb onto the side of the appliance opposite to the one
where the Cool Tip water reservoir is located (fig. 2).
The removable comb will guide the straightener through the hair more
easily.
3 Unscrew the Cool Tip water reservoir from the appliance and fill it
with cold water under a gently running tap (fig. 3).
The appliance can be used with or without water.
4 Keep the appliance upside down and screw the water reservoir back
onto the appliance (fig. 4).
Using the appliance
.
1 Insert the plug into the wall socket.
There is a ready dot on the appliance. When the appliance has
heated up, the ready dot will change colour to indicate that the
appliance is ready for use. This will take approx. 10 minutes (fig. 5).
2 While the appliance is heating up, comb or brush your hair so that it
is disentangled and smooth. Use a comb to divide the hair into locks.
Do not put too much hair in one lock (fig. 6).
3 To straighten your hair, take an approx. 2-inch (5 cm) wide lock of
hair, place it between the micro-glide plates and press the handles of
the appliance together. Start straightening at the roots (fig. 7).
4 If you have filled the Cool Tip water reservoir with water, the
appliance will automatically give off steam when you press the
handles together (fig. 8).
5 Move the straightener slowly and steadily towards the end of the
lock (fig. 9).
Let the locks cool down before finishing your style.
6 To create crimps, take an approx. 2-inch (5 cm) wide lock of hair,
place it between the crimper plates and press the handles of the
Visashave
HP6390/00
appliance together (fig. 10).
Keep the crimper plates in position for 5 seconds and then release your
pressure on the handles to allow the hair to slip out from between the
plates.
Repeat the process until you have achieved the desired look. Allow
your hair to cool down. Do not comb or brush it, as this would ruin
the hairstyle you have just created.
Cleaning
Always unplug the appliance before cleaning it.
Never rinse the appliance with water.
1 Clean the appliance with a damp cloth.
2 To prevent the build-up of scale, you should descale the appliance
regularly. Add 3-4 drops of vinegar to the Cool Tip water reservoir,
top up with water and screw it back onto the appliance. Insert the
plug into the wall socket. Wait 10 minutes and press the handles of
the straightener together 10 times at 20-second intervals to release
steam. Then unplug the appliance and rinse the Cool Tip water
reservoir under a tap.
Storage
Always unplug the appliance before storing it.
Unscrew the Cool Tip water reservoir and pour out the remaining
water (fig. 11).
Put the appliance in a safe place and let it cool down.
Do not wind the mains cord round the appliance.
The appliance can be stored by hanging it from its hanging loop (fig.
12).
