MAINTENANCE
Your curling iron is virtually maintenance- free. No lubrication is needed. Keep all vents and openings clear of dirt and dust. If cleaning becomes necessary, disconnect the curling iron from the power source, let it cool and wipe exterior with a damp cloth. If any abnormal condition occurs, unplug the curling iron, allow it to cool and return it for repair to an authorized service centre only. No repairs should be attempted by the consumer.
NEVER allow the power supply cord to be pulled or twisted. Never wrap the cord around the curl­ing iron. Damage will occur at the high flex point of entry into the curling iron, causing it to rupture and short. Inspect the cord frequently for damage. Stop use immediately if damage is visible or if unit stops or operates intermittently.
STORAGE
When not in use, your appliance should be dis­connected and stored in a safe, dry location out of reach of children. Do not jerk or strain cord at plug connections.
Do not wrap the line cord around the appliance. Allow the cord to hang or lie loose and straight at the point of entry into the appliance.

INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
This curling appliance is intended for house­hold use. Use on Alternating Current (60Hz) only. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
GETTING STARTED
The iron’s 20 temperature settings and Instant Heat technology provide styling versatility for all hair types. If you have fine hair, a low tempera­ture will provide the best results. If you have thick, wavy or hard-to-curl hair, keep the heat setting on high. You can vary the iron’s temperature accord­ing to your particular need!
SUPER STYLING GUIDE
Your best looks begin with a good haircut that’s well maintained. Always treat hair right with superior quality shampoos, conditioners, and finishing products.
CURLING BASICS
1. Plug the curling iron cord into a standard household electrical outlet (125V).
Never leave your curling iron on and unattended.
2. Section dry hair evenly, and comb each sec­tion before winding. Pressing the automatic curl release, place curling iron midway up the hair section, then spread hair evenly between spoon and barrel. Release automatic curl release to hold hair in place. Gently slide curling iron down to hair ends. To avoid crimped ends, make sure they are securely wound under the spoon in the direction of the desired curl.
Remember, always place the spoon above the hair strand when making a curl you want rolled under; place the spoon under the hair strand when mak­ing a flip style.
3. Wind the hair up as far as you want it curled, being careful not to let the iron touch the scalp. Hold in place for 8-12 seconds depending on the texture and length of your hair. For tighter, boun­cier curls, roll less hair. For looser, free flowing curls, roll more hair.
4. To remove curling iron, unwind the hair and press the automatic curl release. To “set” the curl, do not comb or brush hair until it cools.
