OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
This curling appliance is intended for
household use. Use on Alternating
Current (50/60 hertz) 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.
DUAL VOLTAGE
This curling iron has dual voltage. It will
automatically adjust to the proper voltage. Use an adapter plug with correct
configuration prior to use in outlet.
GETTING STARTED
20 temperature settings and instant
heat technology combine to provide
styling versatility for all hair textures. If
you have fine hair, a low temperature
will provide the best results. If you have
thick, wavy or coarse hair , keep the heat
setting high. Y
iron’s temperature according to your
particular need!
CURLING BASICS
1. Plug the curling iron cord into any
household outlet (120 - 125V). Press
“ON” button; the indicator light will
illuminate and begin flashing off and
on. The iron is at the desired temperature setting when LED light stops flashing and remains illuminated. The iron
will heat up very quickly. To turn of f,
press “OFF” button (light will go off).
Never leave your curling iron on and
unattended. However, should you fail
to turn the iron off, it will shut itself off
in approximately 70 minutes.
2. Section dry hair evenly, and comb
each section before winding. Pressing
the professional spring grip, place
curling iron midway up the hair section, then spread hair evenly between
spoon and barrel. Release professional spring grip 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.

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 and wipe exterior with a damp cloth. If any abnormal condition occurs, unplug the
curling iron, allow it to cool and
return it to the place of purchase for
exchange. No repairs should be
attempted by the consumer.
CAUTION
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.
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
