Using The Appliance - ECG ZV 117 Instruction Manual

USING THE APPLIANCE

1. Carefully place the straightener on a firm, flat and heat resistant surface and make sure that the surface is
not in contact with the plates of the straightener.
2. Plug the straightener in the electrical outlet and press and hold (for 2 seconds) the switch 4 to turn it on.
3. The default temperature setting is 180 °C. During the heating the temperature indicator flashes until the
set temperature is reached.
4. Once the set temperature is reached (in about 30 seconds) the temperature indicator stops flashing and
you can use the straightener.
5. Never use in combination with hair styling foam, hairspray, gel, etc.
Microprocessor control and temperature selection
Thanks to the highly sophisticated microprocessor display with LED indicators, you can adjust the setting of
the hair straightener according to your specific needs.
• Individual temperature setting: Using the temperature selection buttons 2 and 3, you can set the
working temperature in 20 °C steps in range from 140 °C to 220 °C. We recommend to use the following
temperature settings:
Strong, tough ... and for professional results 200 °C – 220 °C
Creating a hairstyle
• Pay attention when using the appliance, the work surfaces have very high temperature.
• Make sure that the hair is completely dry before styling.
• To make it easier to style your hair, divide it in the middle or on the sides, and fasten the parts, which you
are not straightening with clips.
• It is necessary to comb your hair before straightening it to disentangle it.
• Divide the hair into layers and start with straightening from the bottom layers. After straightening the
bottom layers continue with the middle ones and finally straighten the top layers at the parting.
• When you have shorter hair, insert between the scalp and the straightener a comb to prevent contact of
the skin with the hot plates. Do not use the hair straightener too close to the skin of the head, ears and
neck.
• Switch the straightener off and disconnect from the outlet after use.
• You can finish the styling by application of hair balm. Rub the balm in with your palms with smooth
motions from the roots to the tips.
Note: We recommend that people with dyed, fragile, damaged and fine hair use lower degree setting.
To save time and effort, using the maximum amount of heat, established on the highest setting, is
recommended for people with healthy rough, strong, exotic and resistant hair.
Automatic safety shutoff
• The appliance shuts down automatically after 30 minutes for safety reasons. If you want to continue with
hair styling, simply press again the ON/OFF button 4.
