OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
This straightening iron is intended for house­hold use. Use on Alternating Current (60 hertz) only. This unit is designed to be operated at 120V AC.
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.
Hair should be clean and completely dried before using the straightening iron. Plug the iron into an electrical outlet. Turn on unit. The Power/Low 310ºF setting will become illuminated.
To turn off, press Off button (light will go off). Never leave your straightening iron on and unattended. However, should you fail to turn the unit off it will shut itself off automatically within 60 minutes.
WARNING: The straightening iron's pure ceramic plates will get very hot within a few seconds and should not be placed in contact with the skin after the straighten­ing iron has been turned on.
The iron’s unique 5 ultra-high heat 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-to­straighten hair, keep the heat setting on high. You can vary the iron’s temperature according to your particular need!

Start with a hair section that is 1" wide and no more than place a hair section between the two hot plates, close to the scalp. Trap hair between the plates by firmly squeezing the handles together. While maintaining the tension, slowly pull the unit down along the hair sec­tion toward the end of hair. For best results, use a light styling product before blow-drying hair. At the end of hair section, release the pressure on the handle and allow the hair section to slide out. Repeat process on addi­tional sections of hair until you achieve the hair style you desire. It may be necessary to repeat process on certain areas, depending on the texture of your hair.
Some experience is necessary when learning to use this straightening iron. After using the iron several times, you will learn the ideal way to straighten and style your hair.
A bonus protective heat shield storage pouch has been included to safely store product away when hot. Great for use at home or when traveling.

STYLING WITH THE NEW PURE CERAMIC
TECHNOLOGY EASY-GLIDE PLATES
The plates of your new straightening iron have an easy-glide pure ceramic surface, the newest technology. You’ll find not only that hair glides easily over the surface of the plates as you’re straightening, but it's simpler to clean styling products residue, etc. off after each use. The pure ceramic surface also helps smooth down flyaways and frizzies. It evenly distributes heat so that the style you create has a salon-perfect, silky smooth, shining finish. Hair also slips right through the plates after it’s straightened.
The new ceramic technology is a pleasure to work with and makes styling your hair easier and the results more professional.
USING INSTANT HEAT, THE 5 ULTRA-
HIGH HEAT TEMPERATURE SETTINGS
& UNIFORM HEAT RECOVERY SYSTEM
This styling iron features a ceramic heater that maintains temperature during use for precision styling. It heats up to the temper­ature you’ve selected for your hair type.
This Instant Heat technology has 5 ultra­high heat temperature settings. There is a temperature range that’s gentle and safe for every type of hair, from the finest to the curliest and most resistant and helps you create the look you want. And that’s not all. Conair’s professional salon standards of engineering provide you with a uniform and improved heat recovery system that maintains the iron at constant temperatures. There is a constant surge of power to ensure that heat is continuously and quickly delivered for optimal styling results, unlike other units, which lose heat during use. This provides consistent styling power so that every strand of your hair is set with the same level of heat and comes out the same way for a perfect finish.

MAINTENANCE
Your straightening iron is virtually maintenance­free. No lubrication is needed. Keep all vents and openings clear of dirt and dust. If cleaning becomes necessary, disconnect the unit from the power source, allow to cool and wipe exterior with a cloth. If any abnormal condition occurs, unplug the unit, allow it to cool, and return it for repair to an authorized service representative only. No repairs should be attempted by the consumer.
CAUTION
NEVER allow the power supply cord to be pulled, twisted, or severely bent. Never wrap the cord tightly around the appliance. Damage will occur at the high flex point of entry into the appliance, causing it to rupture and short circuit. 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 is easy to store. Allow appliance to cool, then simply store out of reach of children in a safe, dry location. 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.
WARNING:
IF YOU THINK THE
POWER IS OFF WHEN
THE SWITCH IS OFF
YOU’RE WRONG.
KEEP AWAY FROM WATER
Everyone knows that electricity and water are a dangerous combination. But did you know that an electric appliance is still electrically live even if the switch is off? If the plug is in, the power is on. So when you are not using your appliances, keep them unplugged.
ALWAYS UNPLUG
