SERVICING OF DOUBLE-INSULATED APPLIANCES

In a double-insulated appliance, two systems of insulation are pro-

vided instead of grounding. No grounding means is provided on

a double-insulated appliance, nor should a means for grounding

be added to the appliance. Servicing a double-insulated appli-

ance requires extreme care and knowledge of the system, and

should be done only by qualiﬁed service personnel.

Replacement parts for a double-insulated appliance must be iden-

tical to the parts they replace.

A double-insulated appliance is marked with the words “DOUBLE

INSULATION” or “DOUBLE INSULATED”.

ADDITIONAL SAFEGUARDS

► Electrocution possible if used or dropped in tub.

► Unplug after using.

► Household use only.

Never use the appliance near water, and keep it away from

sinks, baths and other similar containers. The proximity of water

is hazardous, even if the appliance is switched oﬀ. Always

disconnect the plug from the electrical outlet after use.

■ 6 │ US-EN SHAC 2100 A1

► Connect the hairdryer only to a correctly installed electrical outlet

providing electrical current at the level detailed on the rating plate.

► Under no circumstances may the hairdryer be submerged in

liquids, or liquids be permitted to enter the appliance housing.

Do not expose the appliance to humidity or use it outdoors.

If any liquid gets into the housing, unplug the appliance

immediately and have it repaired by a qualiﬁed technician.

► Unplug the hairdryer from the power socket if defective operation

is apparent and before cleaning it.

► To disconnect the appliance, pull only on the plug itself, not on

the power cable.

► Do not wrap the power cable around the appliance and protect

the cable from being damaged.

► Never touch the hairdryer, the power cable or the plug with

wet hands.

► Disconnect the hairdryer from the power source immediately

after use. The appliance is completely free of electrical power

only when you unplug it.

► You must not open or repair the housing of the hairdryer.

This is unsafe and invalidates the warranty.

► Children must not play with the appliance.

► NEVER put the hairdryer down or leave it unsupervised when it

is switched on.

► Never place the hairdryer close to sources of heat and protect

the power cable against potential damage.

► Do not cover the air intake grille while operating the appliance.

Clean it at regular intervals.

► The hairdryer becomes hot when it is in use. Hold it only by the

grip when it is hot.

SHAC 2100 A1

This product contains chemicals known to the

State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other

reproductive harm.

Important Cord Information

This appliance has a polarized plug. To reduce the risk of elec-

tric shock, this plug is intended to ﬁt into a polarized outlet only

one way. If the plug does not ﬁt fully into the outlet, reverse the

plug. If it still does not ﬁt, contact a qualiﬁed electrician.

Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

► A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord)

should be used to reduce the risk resulting from becoming

entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

► Longer detachable power-supply cords or extensions cords are

available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.

► If a longer detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used:

1) The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord

should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance;

2) The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the

countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or

tripped over unintentionally; and

3) If the appliance is of the grounded type, the cord set or extension

cord should be a grounding-type-3-wire cord.

Operation

Connect to power source

This appliance is ﬁtted with a safety connector 3, which contains

a fault current protection switch (RCCB). If the appliance malfunc-

tions (by coming into contact with water, for example), the RCCB

changes to "oﬀ" and the hairdryer will no longer have power.

If the fault current protection switch in the

safety connector 3 is no longer functioning, discontinue use.

Unplug the safety connector 3 and contact the Customer Service

department.

We recommend testing the safety connector 3 before each use

to make sure it is functioning perfectly:

1) Plug the safety connector 3 into an electrical outlet. Ensure

that the power being supplied from the electrical outlet

matches the voltage speciﬁed on the label.

2) Now press the "Test" button -. The "Reset" button  will

spring out a little more from the 3 safety connector.

Now the hairdryer cannot be turned on again. The fault

current protection switch is working.

3) Press the "Reset" button - so that it snaps into place.

You can now use the hairdryer.

SHAC 2100 A1

Heating and blower levels

1) Turn the hairdryer on with the function switch .

The hairdryer is ﬁtted with two function switches. You can use

these to separately select the strength of the air ﬂow (blower

level switch ) and the heat level (heat level switch ):

Blower levels

OFF hairdryer is switched oﬀ

reduced airﬂow

increased airﬂow

Heat levels

reduced heat level

medium heat level

high heat level

2) Once you have ﬁnished using it, switch the appliance oﬀ by

switching the blower level switch  to "OFF."

3) Then unplug the safety connector 3 from the electrical outlet.

Cold air level

With the cold air button  G you can produce a cooler air ﬂow

with any combination of blower and heat levels (except when

blower level is "OFF").

If you wish to create a cold air stream, press and hold the cooling

level button  G.

When you no longer need the cold air stream, release the cooling

level button  G.

■ 12 │ US-EN SHAC 2100 A1

Ionization function

With the ionic switch , you can switch to the ionization function

with any combination of blower and heat levels.

■ Ionic switch  in position " ": Ionization function is turned

on. The indicator lamp  illuminates.

■ Ionic switch  in position " ": Ionization function is turned

oﬀ.

When drying the hair using a hairdryer, the hair takes on a static

charge and starts to "ﬂy."

The ionization function ensures that this charging of the hair is

neutralized and cancelled. The hair becomes soft, supple, shiny

and easier to style.

Please note, however, that the ionization function will only work

optimally if the attachments (ﬁnger diﬀuser /styling jet ) are

removed, since the attachments will interfere with the application

of the ions to the hair. Therefore, use the hairdryer without attach-

ments for the maximum ionization eﬀect.

Drying and styling hair

■ To quickly dry hair, we recommend ﬁrst of all using a high

blower and heater setting for a short period. Also, set the ionic

switch  to " ." After drying the hair, switch to a lower

blower and heat level to shape the hairstyle.

US-EN │ 13 ■

SHAC 2100 A1

■ With the supplied styling jet , you can apply a directed

airﬂow to shape and style your hair. Start by removing the

ﬁnger diﬀuser  with a downwards snapping motion. Fit the

styling jet  by pushing it with light pressure onto the hairdryer

so that it snaps into place and sits evenly on the hairdryer. If

you no longer require the styling jet , wait until the appliance

has cooled down and pull it oﬀ with a downwards snapping

motion:

■ If you wish to dry your hair gently, or create a so-called "air-

dried permanent wave," then use the diﬀusor attachment .

Start by removing the styling jet  with a downwards snap-

ping motion.

Fit the styling jet  by pushing it with light pressure onto the

hairdryer so that it snaps into place and sits evenly on the hair-

dryer. If you no longer require the styling jet , wait until the

appliance has cooled down and pull it oﬀ with a downwards

snapping motion:

■ Before you comb your hair out, allow it to cool so that the

shaping and styling can retain its form.

■ 14 │ US-EN SHAC 2100 A1

■ You can use the cold air button  G to cool your hair down.

Cleaning
