Before using for the first time
The appliance and the heating plates should
be wiped clean with a slightly damp cloth
before use.
Operation
- The appliance should only be used on dry
or almost dry hair.
- Open the locking catch.
- Insert the plug into a suitable wall outlet.
- Use the slide switch to turn the appliance
on, selecting level 1 or 2. Pre-heating starts
as shown by the red indicator light. The
appliance is ready for use after around 3
minutes.
■
During the heating phase, the appliance
should be placed on a firm, heat-resistant
surface.
- 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 and allow
the heat to take effect for a slightly longer
period.
Selection of level 1 or 2
To prevent the hair from being damaged,
always start with level 1. Level 2 should only
be used for thicker hair, or if no satisfactory
result is achieved with level 1. If the hair can
be straightened in two cycles, an increase to
level 2 is not necessary, as the optimum
setting has already been reached.

clean the appliance with water and do not
