using the appliance
straightening your hair
Straighteners are powerful styling tools and must always be used with
care. As with all straighteners that reach salon high temperatures, do not
use the appliance frequently to avoid damage to the hair.
If you use the straightener incorrectly, you could overheat your hair or
even burn it. Always follow the steps below:
1 Put the plug in the wall socket.
 Set the on/off switch to 'on' (Fig. ).
 Pull the lock downwards to unlock the appliance if it is
locked (Fig. ).
Tip: If you lock the plates with the closing lock, the straightener heats up
more quickly.
 Let the appliance heat up for at least 60 seconds.
5 Comb or brush your hair so that it is disentangled and
smooth. (Fig. 5)
Use a comb to divide the hair into sections. Do not put too much hair in
one section.
Note: It is better to section off the crown area and to straighten the hair
underneath first. Then straighten the top area.
6 Take a section that is not wider than 5cm. Place it between the
straightening plates and press the handles of the appliance firmly
together.
