Problem
The appliance does
not work at all.
The styling results are
not what you
expected.
Solution
Perhaps there is a power failure or the socket is not
live.
Check if the power supply is working. If it is, check
whether the socket is live by plugging in another
appliance.
Perhaps the appliance overheated and switched itself
off.
Unplug the appliance and let it cool down for a few
minutes.
Make sure that the voltage indicated on the appliance
corresponds to the local mains voltage.
Perhaps the mains cord of the appliance is damaged.
The mains cord must be replaced by Philips, a service
centre authorised by Philips or similarly qualified
persons in order to avoid a hazard.
Perhaps you didn't let the appliance heat up long
enough.
Let the appliance heat up until the ready dot has
changed colour.
Perhaps you wound too much hair round the barrel or
put too much hair between the plates.
When using the curling attachments or the slide-on
brush, do not make the locks too thick.The thinner the
lock of hair, the tighter the curl will be.When using the
crimping/straightening attachment, make sure the locks
are no wider than 5 to 6 cm for a good result.
Perhaps you didn't leave the styling attachment in your
hair long enough.
Keep the styler in your hair for 5 to 10 seconds,
depending on the thickness of your hair.
