The Grundig HS 5523 Hot Air Hairstyler is a versatile styling tool designed for domestic use, offering a range of features to help you achieve your desired hairstyle. This professional hair styler is equipped with detachable heated brushes, allowing for various styling options and ease of use.
Function Description:
The primary function of the HS 5523 is to dry and style hair simultaneously using a flow of hot air. It features a control switch (C) that allows you to turn the device on and off, as well as select between two temperature and blower settings.
- Setting 0: Turns the appliance off.
- Setting 1: Provides a gentle air flow and moderate temperature, ideal for gently drying and styling your hair.
- Setting 2: Delivers a strong air current and high temperature, suitable for quick drying and more intensive styling.
For enhanced styling and to set your hairstyle more lastingly, the device includes a "Cool Shot" button (G). When pressed and held, this feature interrupts the heating and provides a cool air flow, helping to fix your hairstyle in place.
The HS 5523 comes with three different sizes of hot air brushes (A), each designed for specific styling needs:
- Hot air brush medium (1): Ø 25 mm, suitable for creating smaller curls or adding volume to shorter hair.
- Hot air brush large (2): Ø 38 mm, ideal for larger curls, waves, or adding significant volume.
- Hot air brush extra large (3): Ø 50 mm, perfect for achieving loose waves, straightening, or adding maximum volume to longer hair.
The brushes are ceramic-tourmaline coated, which helps to distribute heat evenly and reduce static, contributing to a smoother, shinier finish. The device is powered via a mains cable (D) with an eyelet, allowing for convenient storage by hanging the appliance. An air inlet grille (E) ensures proper air circulation during operation.
Usage Features:
Before using the HS 5523, ensure your hair is thoroughly towel-dried after washing.
- Connecting to Power: Plug the mains cord (D) into a wall socket. Always check that the mains voltage on the device's type plate matches your local mains supply.
- Attaching Styling Brushes: The styling attachments (A) are detachable. To change an attachment, press the catch (B) located on the back of the device and turn the currently attached hot air brush slightly to the right. To attach a new brush, align the recess on the brush with the catch (B) on the device, then turn it slightly to the left until it clicks securely into place.
- Selecting Settings: Turn on the appliance using the control switch (C) and select your desired temperature and blower level (1 or 2) based on your hair type and styling needs.
- Styling: Use the chosen hot air brush to style your hair. The warm air flow helps to shape and dry your hair simultaneously.
- Using Cool Shot: If needed, press and hold the "Cool Shot" button (G) to provide a burst of cool air. This helps to set your style and make it last longer.
- Switching Off: After use, switch off the appliance using the control switch (C) and unplug the mains cable (D) from the socket.
Important Usage Notes:
- Never use the appliance in the bath, shower, or over a washbasin filled with water, and avoid operating it with wet hands.
- Do not immerse the appliance in water or allow it to come into contact with water, even during cleaning.
- If the appliance is used in the bathroom, always pull out the mains plug after use, as water nearby can still pose a danger even if the appliance is switched off.
- It is recommended to install a residual-current-operated protective device (RCD) with a rated residual operating current not exceeding 30 mA in your bathroom's electrical circuit for additional protection.
- Never place the appliance on soft cushions or blankets during operation, and ensure the air-induction and output openings are not covered.
- The appliance is equipped with an overheating protection system for safety.
- A metallised brush can become extremely hot during prolonged or intensive use. Adjust usage time to the accessory being used to avoid injury.
- Never wind the mains cable around the appliance, as this can cause damage.
Maintenance Features:
Regular cleaning and care will help maintain the performance and longevity of your HS 5523 Hot Air Hairstyler.
- Before Cleaning: Always pull the plug out of the socket before cleaning the appliance.
- Cleaning the Housing: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the housing of the device.
- Cleaning the Air Inlet Grille: Occasionally, clean the air inlet grille (E) with a soft brush to remove any accumulated hairs and dust. This ensures proper air flow and prevents overheating.
- Water Immersion: Never submerge the appliance in water.
- Cable Care: Regularly check the appliance and the mains cable for visible damage. If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service centre, or a similarly qualified person to prevent danger. Do not pull the plug out by pulling on the cable.
By following these guidelines, you can ensure safe and effective use of your Grundig HS 5523 Hot Air Hairstyler for many years to come.
