Thank you.

For having placed your trust in CARRERA – and for giving us

the opportunity to prove you right with our hot air brush.

Everything is driven by one idea.

Each CARRERA appliance follows a clear concept.

No consideration of existing gender roles, no pink for women

or blue for men. Since when did quality and performance

have a gender?

We create technology maximising user friendliness, handling

and aesthetics and bringing performance to life. Directly

when switching on the appliance and even after many years.

Performance is not just delivered by the motor alone, but

results from the skilful interplay of each individual component.

We just call it the CARRERA boost.

Although we have not reinvented the wheel, we had the cour-

age to do right what is crucial and to dispense with everything

that is unimportant.

That is our style. And you will rediscover it in each further

CARRERA appliance.

replaced by the manufacturer, its service

agent or similarly qualiﬁed persons in order

to avoid a hazard.

 Installation of a residual current appliance

(FI/RCD) with a rated residual operating cur-

rent of no more than 30 mA is recommend-

ed to provide additional protection. Ask

water. Do not use the appliance again, but have it checked by

a specialist.



Should liquid get into the appliance, pull out the mains plug

immediately. Have the appliance checked before operating it

again.

DANGER of electric shock

Do not operate the appliance if it or the cable shows visible

signs of damage or if the appliance has been dropped.

Only connect the mains plug to a properly installed socket, which

is easily accessible and supplies voltage matching the rating

plate. The socket must still be easily accessible after connection.



Ensure that the cable cannot be damaged by sharp edges or

hot surfaces. Do not wrap the cable around the appliance (cable

break danger!).



Make sure the cable is not trapped or crushed.

… after each use,

… if a fault occurs,

… when you are not using the appliance,

… before cleaning the appliance and

… during thunderstorms.



To avoid any risk, do not make any changes to the appliance or

accessories. Do not replace the cable yourself

either. Repairs

must only be carried out by a specialised company.

24

GB

DANGER – Fire hazard

Never leave the appliance unattended while plugged in.



Never cover the appliance or place it on soft objects (e.g. bath

towels). Always place the switched-on/hot appliance on a solid,

level, heat-resistant surface.



Make sure that the air intake and air outlet are never blocked.

Keep the air intake grille away from long hair or objects that

could be drawn in.



This appliance is equipped with an overheat protection. In

the event of overheating caused, for instance, by covering

the air intake and air outlet grille, the appliance will switch off

automatically. If this happens, set the on/off switch to 0 (off),

pull the mains plug and allow the appliance to cool sufﬁciently.

Before switching it on again, make sure that the air intake grille

is not blocked by hair or foreign objects.



Do not switch on the appliance simultaneously with another

appliance with high power consumption connected to the

same power strip.



Never use petroleum, alcohol or other inﬂammable cleaning

agents.



Never use the appliance in combination with styling products.



Do not use an extension cable.

DANGER of burns

Do not direct the hot airﬂow at eyes, hands or other areas of

the body that are sensitive to heat.



Never touch the hot surfaces of the appliance.



Allow the appliance to cool down completely before you clean

it or put it away.



Allow the styling attachment to cool before removing it from

the appliance.

WARNING! Risk of injury

Place the cable in such a way that no one trips over it

or steps on it!

25

GB

CAUTION! Risk of material damage

Never place the appliance on hot surfaces (e.g. hot plates) or

near heat sources or open ﬁre.



Do not use any harsh or abrasive cleaning agents.



Store the appliance at a temperature between −10 °C and

+40 °C.

NOTES:



The ceramic coating of the styling attachments ensures even heat

distribution and allows styling your hair in a particularly gentle way.

The ceramic coating is particularly gentle to stressed or colour-

treated hair, thus ensuring a long-lasting colour brilliance of dyed

hair.



This appliance is equipped with an ionisation function, permanent-

ly releasing ions onto the hair to reduce the static charge of the

hair and allow easier styling. Single drops of water are divided into

tiny particles.

Thus, the hair dries faster and more gently.

The result is healthy, smooth and shiny hair whose natural moisture

is retained.
