Philips Airstylist quattro 300 Manual page 7

Preparing for use
Before you start using the Airstylist, comb or brush the hair so
that it is untangled and smooth.
The Airstylist is most effective when the hair is slightly damp.
When your hair is dry, slightly dampen it. Never use the appliance
on wet hair!
Do not insert the mains plug into the wall socket until after you have
connected the attachment.
Using the appliance
Making curls in hair of any length
We advise you to perform a curl test to determine how long the
curling iron should be held in your hair to achieve a good result. Start
with 8 to 10 seconds.You may have to hold the curling iron in your hair
longer for tighter curls. Less tight curls will require less than 8 seconds.
1 Connect the curling iron to the styler by aligning the arrows on
the curling iron with the arrows on the styler and pressing the
curling iron home.You will hear a click (fig. 1).
2 Divide the hair into locks.
3 Take a lock of hair, open the clip by pressing the lever and place
the lock between the barrel and the clip (fig. 2).
4 Release the lever and slide the barrel to the end of the lock.
Wind the hair round the barrel. Make sure the end of the lock is
wound in the required direction.
- Do not wind too much hair around the barrel at a time.
- The thinner the lock of hair, the tighter the curl will be.
- Do not wind a lock of hair more than twice round the barrel.
5 Switch the appliance on by selecting setting I for a gentle, warm
airflow or setting II for a stronger and warmer airflow (fig. 3).
6 Keep the curling iron in your hair until the hair is warm to the
touch.
