How to Use

Usage Tips

Maintenance

Heat Settings

Take extra care when using a professional styler. To prevent hair damage, make sure to use the correct temperature setting for your hair type.

Setting Hair Type A. 1-10 Very fine, fragile,

damaged hair B. 11-20 Normal, easy to straighten hair C. 21-30 Thick, difficult to straighten hair

Auto-off

After approximately one hour, the unit will automatically shut itself off. To reactivate the unit, press the ON/OFF switch.

Dual Voltage Use

This appliance contains a special electronic circuit that automatically converts it for worldwide usage–from 120 to 240 volts AC, 50 to 60 Hz. Just plug it into the local outlet and use it as normal; the styler will automatically adjust to the local current. (You may need an adapter to allow the plug to fit into the local outlets, however.)

Straightening Your Hair

1. Hair should be dry and free of

tangles before using the styling iron.

2. Plug the styler into an electrical outlet. Press and hold the ON/OFF button until the unit turns on and the LED lights up.

3. Adjust the temperature using the temperature dial. The ready light will flash while the unit heats up, then glow steadily when it has reached the selected temperature.

4. Divide hair into manageable sections and clip the upper layers on top of your head and out of the way. Work with underneath layers first.

5. Test the styler on a small section of hair, then adjust the temperature up or down before styling the rest of your hair.

NOTE:

■ If you find that you need a higher setting while straightening your hair, simply adjust the temperature to a higher heat setting.

■ While straightening your hair, if you find that you need a lower setting, adjust the temperature to a lower heat setting. Because the unit is already hot, it may take a few minutes to cool off.

6. Take a small section of hair and pull hair down and away from your scalp, and hold it taut.

7. Starting at the roots, clamp hair firmly between the plates and run the styler down the entire hair strand, from root to tip, in one smooth stroke. Do not hold it in one area for a long period of time or damage to hair may occur.

8. To create curves or flicks, rotate your wrist to turn the iron in toward your head or out away from your head as you run the iron down the hair strand.

9. Repeat with all the sections of your hair, working with the underneath layers first, then the top and sides.

10. When you are finished styling, press and hold the ON/OFF button to turn the unit off, unplug it, and allow it to cool before storing.

NOTE: DUAL VOLTAGE APPLIANCE

■ Confirm the voltage available at each overseas location before using the appliance. For connection to a 240volt supply, use an attachment plug adapter of the proper configuration for the power supply receptacle.

Cleaning

■ Make sure the unit is unplugged and cool. Use a damp cloth to clean the plates and the outside of the power handle. No other maintenance of the unit is required.
