HOWTO USE LISSIMA ?
The basic technique for straightening hair from the roots to the ends is as follows:
- After shampooing your hair, dry it well on a towel and comb to remove any tangles.
- Dry your hair slightly using the hair dryer function (with or without the concentrator attachment) leaving it
damp.
- Fix the " Ultra-liss system " straightener attachment in place and select speed " 1 ".
Place the dryer at the roots of your hair, above and below the lock of hair to be straightened, ensuring that
the lock of hair goes through the smoothing prongs (Fig.7 and 8).
-Turn the dryer slightly so the lock of hair is caught between the prongs, then slide the dryer along the
length of the hair to the ends (Fig.9).
Repeat until you achieve the required result.

4.TIPS ON ACHIEVING A PERFECT STYLE
The LISSIMA dryer offers a number of possibilities. Here are a few techniques and tips on how to smooth
your hair into various straight styles.
10
STYLINGTIPS
GB
Volume at the roots:
Once your hair is dry and straightened, place the dryer at the roots again, under the lock of hair to be styled,
insert the smoothing prongs into the thickness of the hair and start smoothing the lock in the opposite direction
to the way the hair grows for about 3 cm (Fig. 11), then hold the dryer against the scalp for 5 secs with the
"cool air shot" button pressed, (Fig. 12) and finally allow the dryer to slide to the end of the lock of hair (Fig.13).
To give overall volume to your hairstyle, you must apply this process to each lock of hair.
12
13
11
A smooth, shaped fringe:
Dry your fringe, leaving it damp.Take the whole fringe in one hand, place the dryer at the root of your hair,
under the fringe and smooth the hair vertically above your head (Fig.14), then slide the dryer slowly to the
end of the fringe
To curve your fringe inwards, take the fringe in your other hand and place the hair between the smoothing
prongs, following the curve of the dryer (Fig.15). Keep this position for 5 seconds with the "cool air shot"
button pressed to set the curved shape.
14
15
Turning the ends of your hair under or flicked up:
You can give this shape to a few locks of hair only or achieve an all-over effect.
The dryer should be under the lock of hair.
Straighten the lock of hair in question and when you reach the end, block the ends of your hair with your
other hand or a comb (Fig.16), turning the hair around the rounded base of the dryer.To emphasise the
shape, turn the dryer further inwards.
To flick your hair out at the ends (Fig.17): Follow the same method but with the dryer above the lock of hair

27
- Dry your hair until just damp using the normal hair dryer function.
- Separate the hair into two parts vertically, from the crown of your head to the base of the nape (Fig.28).

root -> end movement.
- Repeat the process until both sides of the nape are perfectly smooth.
- Continue with the hair at the sides of your face and end by the top of your head and fringe (if there is one).
-To obtain a straight style with curved volume, use this technique by placing the dryer under the lock of hair.
-To obtain a straight, flat style, the dryer should be held above the lock of hair.
-To ensure the ends are very smooth and straight and not curved (Fig.29), slide the dryer to the ends of your hair

and styling gel, etc..)
- Caution! never use the dryer with a chemical perming product. Your hair would not survive!
5. MAINTENANCE
GB
CAUTION!: always disconnect the dryer before cleaning.
A- Cleaning the dryer:
-Your dryer needs very little maintenance. You can wipe with a dry or damp cloth.
Removable grill for easy maintenance:
this appliance is equipped with a rear grill and an ultra-fine filter (Fig.31) so as
to prevent hair from entering the appliance. It is recommended to clean the fil-
ter regularly.
- Never use surgical spirit or similar to clean your dryer.
- Never immerse the dryer or attachments in water.
- Dry the parts you have cleaned very carefully.
31
32
B- Cleaning the attachments:
- We recommend regular cleaning of the straightener attachments with
the small cleaning brush provided.
- First remove the straightener attachment, then remove any hair clogging the
plates, using the part of the cleaning attachment with rigid teeth (Fig.32), then
finish with the soft brush.
6. PROTECTION OFTHE ENVIRONMENT
At the end of the life of your product, it should go to a specially-adapted waste recycling centre.
7. INTHE EVENT OF A PROBLEM
LISSIMA blows cool air !:
1) You have inadvertently pressed the "cool shot" button
2)The thermostat has cut out because the "Ultra-liss system" or rear grill need cleaning with the cleaning
attachment (cf. Paragraph 5).
If the problem persists after cleaning, contact the After-Sales Service.
3)You are allowing your hair to remain too long in contact with the "Ultra-liss system".
The straightening effect is not efficient enough !:
Your hair is too wet, dry it off a little.
