(b) fits into the long handle.
•The energy supply must be switched off (switch (A) at position «0»).
•Press the release button (E) and pull off the handle (F).
•Insert a Braun energy cell into the handle as shown (arrow pointing outward). Push the handle with the energy cell back onto the appliance until it snaps into place.
Only use Braun energy cells. These are available from the store where this appli- ance was purchased, as well as from authorised Braun Service Agents. The energy cells can be taken out or changed at any time, even if they are only partly filled.
3Filling the water reservoir for the steam function
a)Pull the transparent water reservoir (C) off the appliance as shown.
b)Remove the long plug by turning it as indicated.
4 Switching on
a)To start the energy supply shift switch
(A) up to position «1». Wait 3 to 4 seconds.
Shift switch (A) further up to the «start» position until you can clearly hear a click.
b)Let the switch slide back to position «1».
c)The ignition indicator (B) illuminates to show that the appliance has ignited and is heating up. In the unlikely case that it does not heat up, make sure that switch (A) is on position «1» and push it up to «start» again.
d)After approx. 7 to 8 minutes, the appliance is ready for use.
5 Steaming
To add steam to a section of hair, press down the rubber top of the water reser- voir for approx. 2 to 3 seconds (you will feel a click). Steam will be released from the openings of the tong, giving the hair just the required amount of natural moisture for a more gentle styling and longer-lasting styles.
After use
Switch off the appliance by shifting switch (A) back to position «0». After use, always empty the water reservoir (C). Otherwise drops of water may get into the appliance and affect the heat up process for some time. After the water has dried out the appliance will work normally again.
Cleaning
Make sure the appliance is switched off and cold. Never immerse the appliance in water.
The tong and the handle can be cleaned with a soft damp cloth.
Storage
After use or cleaning, always place the heat-resistant protective cover (G) on the appliance. It ensures that the appliance is not switched on unintentionally.
