please see instructions below.

8 In order to use the rotating barrel in an anti-clockwise

direction, push the barrel lock (B) to the bottom, following
the direction of the arrow on the tongs handle (see fig 1).

9 In order to have the tongs barrel rotating in either direction

whilst styling, select the mid-point on the handle lock (see fig 1).

10 When you have finished with the tongs, push the on/off

switch (A) into the off (0) position.
