CLEANING YOUR STRAIGHTENER
Over time, you will find a natural build up on your straightening plates. This can be caused by
natural oils in your hair and styling products and lotions. At the first sign of build up, you should
clean your straightening plates. To do this, always switch your straightener off and wait for them
to cool down. Wipe with a damp cloth, or a non abrasive cleaning wipe. Failure to do this may
mean the build up becomes burnt onto the straightening plates and they will become difficult to
clean. If your straightening plates do become discoloured it will NOT affect their performance.
MAINS LEAD
As a safety precaution, and to prolong the life of your appliance, do not wrap the mains lead
around the straightener unit. Use the cable storage provided in the base unit.
HEAT PROTECTION MAT
The heatproof mat is designed to protect surfaces from heat damage. To use – rest
your straighteners on the mat, or wrap your straighteners inside when they have been switched
off. DO NOT clamp the mat between the straightening plates while your straightener is hot
as this can cause damage. With prolonged use you may find your heatproof mat becomes
discoloured – this is normal.
SAFETY INFORMATION
When using your hair straightener, basic safety precautions should always be followed.
Please read these instructions carefully before using the product, and keep them in a
safe place for future reference.
1.
This straightener is of professional standard, and reaches very high temperatures.
Always be careful not to allow the plates to come into contact with the skin.
2.
Do not leave the plates in contact with the hair for more than a few seconds.
The straightener reaches very high temperatures, so there is no need to leave the
hair between the plates for longer than a few seconds. This will avoid unnecessary damage
to the hair cuticle.
3.
Use the appliance for its intended use only.
4.
To protect against the risk of electric shock, do not immerse the appliance in water or any
other liquids.
5.
It is recommended that this appliance should not be used by children.
6.
Always unplug your appliance when it is not in use.
7.
Do not leave the straightener switched on while unattended.
8.
Do not use this appliance near bathtubs, showers, basins or other vessels
containing water.
9.
In the event of cable damage, do not attempt to replace the mains cable – return to
Morphy Richards.
10. After use, do not store until the product has cooled down.
11. Do not place the straightener on surfaces likely to be damaged by the heat.
12. Ensure your hair is completely dry before you begin straightening. Applying high
temperatures to damp or wet hair will increase the probability of hair breaking or becoming
permanently damaged.
13. Try and use your straightener for as short a time as possible – prolonged use can cause
unnecessary damage to your hair.
