Temperature selection

To prevent the hair from being damaged,
always start with a low temperature setting,
e.g. 120 - about 150°C for thin or sensitive
hair, 160 - about 190°C for thicker hair. If the
hair can be straightened at that setting in two
cycles, no further increase in temperature is
necessary, as the optimum setting has already
been reached.
Operation
– The appliance should only be used on dry
or almost dry hair.
– Insert the plug into a suitable wall outlet.
– Use the On/Off switch to turn the appliance
on.
– Use the temperature control to set
the desired level, observing the above
instructions. Pre-heating starts as shown by
the red indicator light.
During the heating phase, the appliance
should be placed on a fi rm, heat-resistant
surface.
– Once the desired temperature has been
reached, the indicator light changes to
green.
– Take each strand of hair as close as
possible to the roots and place it between
the heating plates.
– Bring the two arms together on the hair and
gently pull through the hair, starting from
the roots and working your way out to the
ends.
– Open the arms.
– Check whether the result is as desired.
– If you wish the shaping to be more
pronounced, repeat the process, allowing
the heat to take effect slightly longer, or
dividing the hair into smaller strands.
– Switch off after use, remove the plug from
the wall socket, place the appliance on a
heat-resistant surface and allow it to cool
down.
