the handles together to lock the plates. To unlock, press the handles together and push the

WARNING: DO NOT engage the plate-locking switch during styling, and DO NOT lock the
plates onto hair, as serious damage to hair or even injury could result.
Start-up
• Plug the straightener into an electrical outlet
• Press the Power Button (On/Off) and the LED Temperature Display will start blinking
showing the default setting or the last memory setting.
Adjusting Plate Temperatures:
• Both Left (L) and Right (R) plates, which are labeled for easy reference, can be set at the
same temperatures or adjusted to have one side hotter or cooler than the other.
• Slide the Dual Heater Control Switch to the "L" to set the temperature on the Left plates.
• Slide switch to the "R" to set the temperature on the Right Plates. To set both plates at
the same temperature, move switch to the "LR" position.
Caution: Straighteners with heat controls operate at high temperatures when used on
high settings. When using for the first time, begin with the LOWEST setting. Please read
all instructions carefully before using. For best results, follow these guidelines:
Heat Selection Hair Type
100 °C - 165 °C
For fine, thin hair
165 °C - 193 °C
For normal, medium-textured hair
195 °C - 235 °C
For wavy, thick, coarse hair
Helpful Styling Hints
• Hair should be clean and dried completely before using any styling tool.
• Separate a 2.5 cm section of hair, gently place hair between the Straightening plates
and clamp the straightener down firmly on the hair. You will achieve professional results
if you work from the scalp to the ends of your hair.
• Carefully slide the iron along the isolated section, making sure the hair is heated and
straightened all the way to the ends. The ends will probably require less heat than the
hair which grows closer to the scalp.
• For best results, hold end of hair while smoothing the hair section.
• To create flips or curls, use rounded edge of Straightening Plates to curl ends out or
under.
• To remove hair from the flat iron, release pressure and allow the hair to gently slip out
from the Straightening Plates.
• The straightening process does not require overlapping; separate each section of hair
and work on it as indicated above.
• Allow hair to cool before combing or brushing.
• Repeat the process until you have achieved the look you desire.
• When styling is complete, press and hold the Power Button (ON/OFF) to turn off.
Unplug the appliance and allow it to cool before storing.
