HOW DOES THERMOCERAMIC TECHNOLOGY WORK?

The straightener contains a special ThermoCeramic heating element which ensures it heats up to a very high temperature in seconds. This high heat is then maintained throughout use (unlike traditional elements where heat fluctuates throughout use) to guarantee straight hair all day.

The ceramic coated plates ensure that the hair cuticle lies flat once styled. This ensures that your hair reflects light and therefore appears healthy and shiny. The ceramic coating also acts as a barrier to protect your hair from the high temperature reached by the element. This minimises damage to the cuticle.

USING YOUR STRAIGHTENER:

After washing your hair, it’s really important to prepare it for styling. If you use lots of heated styling tools on your hair use a heat protection spray before you begin styling. Always dry the excess water from your hair using a towel, and then use a wide tooth comb to detangle and smooth your hair.

Use your hairdryer until your hair is completely dry. Divide your hair into sections, and comb each section through. Use sectioning clips to clip hair out of the way so you can straighten hair thoroughly.

Plug in your hair straightener base at the mains. There is space for cable storage in the straightener base, so you may need to unwind the cable to reach your mains socket.

Select the best heat setting for your hair type by sliding the switch to position 1 for fine hair, or position 2 for thicker, coarser hair types. Place the straightener securely in the base unit. Use the on/off switch to switch your straightener on. The red light will illuminate to show that the straightener is switched on. The green light will also flash to show your straightener is heating up.

When ready for use, the green light will stop flashing and become solid. Lift your straightener from the base (the green light will switch off to indicate the straightener has been removed from the base.) Clamp a section of the hair between the straightening plates, as close to the roots as possible. Gently slide the straightener down your hair shaft to the ends. For more difficult sections of hair, you may need to do this again. Repeat on all sections of the hair.

To ensure optimum performance, you will need to replace the straightener back in the base approximately every 4 minutes. It’s really easy to do this while you section the next piece of hair to straighten. Leave the straightener in the base for a few seconds and full temperature will be regained. The green light will illuminate and begin to flash to indicate the straightener has been replaced on the base and is reheating. The green light will become solid again to show the straightener has reached full temperature and is ready to use again.

Don’t forget to switch off your straighteners at the base unit when you have finished straightening. Never wind the mains cable around the straightener – use the cable storage available in the base unit.

WIRING

The product is fitted with a 13A (BS1363) plug. A 13A fuse (BS1362) must be used. Check the voltage on the rating plate of your appliance corresponds with your house electricity supply which must be AC (Alternating Current). If the socket outlets in your home are not suitable for the plug supplied with this appliance the plug should be removed and an appropriate one fitted.

IMPORTANT: THE PLUG, REMOVED FROM THE MAINS LEAD, IF SEVERED, MUST BE DESTROYED AS A PLUG WITH BARED FLEXIBLE CORD IS HAZARDOUS IF ENGAGED INTO A LIVE SOCKET OUTLET.

CLEANING YOUR STRAIGHTENER

Over time, you will find a natural build up on your straightening plates. This can be caused by natural oils in your hair and styling products and lotions. At the first sign of build up, you should clean your straightening plates. To do this, always switch your straightener off and wait for them to cool down. Wipe with a damp cloth, or a non abrasive cleaning wipe. Failure to do this may mean the build up becomes burnt onto the straightening plates and they will become difficult to clean. If your straightening plates do become discoloured it will NOT affect their performance.

MAINS LEAD

As a safety precaution, and to prolong the life of your appliance, do not wrap the mains lead around the straightener unit. Use the cable storage provided in the base unit.

SAFETY INFORMATION

When using your hair straightener, basic safety precautions should always be followed. Please read these instructions carefully before using the product, and keep them in a safe place for future reference.

This straightener is of professional standard, and reaches very high temperatures. Always be careful not to allow the plates

to come into contact with the skin.

Do not leave the plates in contact with the hair for more than a few seconds. The straightener reaches very high temperatures, so there is no need to leave the hair between the plates for longer than a few seconds. This will avoid unnecessary damage to the hair cuticle.

Use the appliance for its intended use only.

To protect against the risk of electric shock, do not immerse the appliance in water or any other liquids.

Always unplug your appliance when it is not in use.

Do not leave the straightener switched on while unattended.

The appliance should be used with the stand provided.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, it’s service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

The appliance is not intended for use by children or other persons without assistance or supervision if their physical, sensory or mental capabilities prevent them using it safely. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

In the event of cable damage, do not attempt to replace the mains cable, return to Morphy Richards.

After use, do not store until the product has cooled down.

Do not place the straightener on surfaces likely to be damaged by the heat.

Ensure your hair is completely dry before you begin straightening. Applying high temperatures to damp or wet hair will increase the probability of hair breaking or becoming permanently damaged.

Try and use your straightener for as short a time as possible – prolonged use can cause unnecessary damage to your hair.
