Using the appliance
Straighteners are powerful styling tools and must always be used with care.
As with all straighteners that reach salon-high temperatures, do not
use the appliance frequently to avoid damage to the hair. If you use the
straightener incorrectly or if you use it at the wrong temperature setting,
you could overheat your hair or even burn it. Always make sure you select a
temperature setting that is suitable for your hair type.
Straightening
1 Put the plug in the wall socket.
2 Set the on/off switch to ‘I’.
The blue power-on light goes on.
,
Never leave the appliance unattended when it is plugged in. Always put
the appliance on a heat-resistant surface when it is heating up and when
it is hot.
3 Turn the temperature wheel to select the required temperature
setting. Select a temperature setting that is suitable for your
hair. (Fig. 2)
Always select a low setting when you use the straightener for the rst
time.
For coarse, curly or hard-to-straighten hair, select a medium to high
setting.
For ne, medium-textured or softly waved hair, select a medium to
low setting.
Take extra care with pale, blonde, bleached or colour-treated hair, since it
is susceptible to damage at high temperatures.
4 Turn the temperature wheel to set the temperature.
5 Let the appliance heat up for at least 30 seconds.
6 Comb or brush your hair so that it is disentangled and
smooth. (Fig. 3)
Use a comb to divide the hair into sections. Do not put too much hair in
one section.
Note: It is better to section off the crown area and to straighten the hair
underneath rst, followed by the top area.
7 Take a section that is not wider than 5cm. Place it between the
straightening plates and press the handles of the appliance rmly
together.
8 Slide the straightener down the length of the hair in 5 seconds, from
root to hair end, without stopping to prevent overheating (Fig. 4).
9 Repeat this process after 20 seconds until you have achieved the
desired look.
10 Let your hair cool down. Do not comb or brush it before it has
cooled down, as this would ruin the hairstyle you have just created.
Cleaning
Never immerse the appliance in water or any other liquid, nor rinse it
under the tap.
1 Switch off the appliance and unplug it.
2 Let the appliance cool down completely on a heat-resistant surface.
3 Clean the appliance with a damp cloth.
