    • Before disassembly, unplug the device.

    • Make sure the device was not on for the last 10 minutes, because it might still be hot.

    • Using a Spanner 4.0 screwdriver, unscrew the 1.5mm screw from the exterior of the hairdryer.

    • Begin at the cord end of the product. Gently pry the two halves of the external casing open with the help of a Jimmy and push the front cap up and away from the external casing. The snap-fit should come loose.

    • After opening the first snap-fit, remove the gray cord protector by slightly pulling it backwards while keeping the gap open with your other hand.

    • Slide the cord protector down the electrical cord and out of the way.

    • Continue loosening the front cap from the external casing using the Jimmy. The snap-fits tend to snap back in place, so to prevent that use opening picks to keep the separated halves from snapping back closed.

    • Work your way around the product, opening one snap-fit at a time.

    • Take care while opening the snap-fits. If done gently, damaging the product can be prevented. It might take some time and patience, but prevents breaking the casing as a whole.

    • It is advised to open the snap-fits that are easier to access, and finish with the snapfits in the harder-to-reach spots, namely those in the area where the handle meets the head of the hairdryer (shown in the third picture).

    • Places where the snap-fits are located. Those are the most important points for opening it.

    • Using either tweezers or pliers, pinch and remove the sliders and button from the front cap.

    • The sliders can only be removed at the specific place, marked in the second picture. Here the slit is a bit wider, making it possible to push the sliders through.

    • Using the same driver as before, remove the 1.5mm Spanner 4.0 screw that becomes accessible after removal of the front cap.

    • At the back of the product, the two halves of the case are connected with a snap-fit cap. Loosen this cap by putting a screwdriver or other opening tool under the cap using it as a lever.

    • Unfortunately, to further access the insides of the product, it is necessary to break the snap-fit cap. There is no way to reach this part from the back.

    • Using the same tools and methods as before, pry the two external halves open the rest of the way.

    • The snap-fits joining these two halves are tougher than those of the front cap. You might need to use more force to release them.

    • Unscrew the third and last 1.5mm spanner 4.0 screw keeping the fan down, using the same spanner driver again.

    • Unscrew the 1.3mm Phillips #2 screw holding the circuit board down, using a Phillips #2 screwdriver or bit.

    • Slide out the inner components as a whole.

Do never open it…

It’s a disaster!

Thanks a lot. It’s hard to disassemble without cosmetic damage(

Thanks a lot. It worked for me. It's a shame they don't make it with a removable rear guard to remove hair build up on the fan. A bit of cosmetic damage but cleaned up with a sharp knife

Good job, exactly the info I needed. I would say difficulty is higher as it is almost impossible to execute this without damaging the edges.

Thanks a lot for the great description. I succeeded in repairing my hairdryer. The fan stopped spinning at the highest speed due to hairs caught in it. I removed them. Btw. I used tools for reparing a mobile phone which were very useful. I will add some pictures where I put crosses on the casing just to get an idea where the snap-fit caps are located. It helps to concentrate on these areas. I also succeeded in not breaking the snap-fit cap : )
