3. GETTING STARTED
Attaching and removing accessories:
• For the hair dryer (depending on model):
Attach the hair dryer directly to the handle by locking the ring, without using the styling
iron. To remove it, follow the above procedure in reverse order.
• For other accessories:
All the accessories are attached in the same way.
Attach all the accessories when the appliance is cold to avoid the risk of burns.
1. Attach the accessory to the styling iron (Fig. 1).
2. Attach the styling iron to the handle and turn the locking ring on the handle to lock
the accessory in place (Fig. 2).
• To remove the accessories:
1. Remove the styling iron from the handle by unlocking the ring.
2. Press the eject button on the styling iron and remove the accessory.
NB: To change the straightening plates or crimping plates, pull the end of the plates and
slide the plates as shown in the diagram (Fig. 3).
The straightening plates and crimping plates form a single accessory. To change them,
just turn over the plates.
When putting the plates back in position, be sure to clip them as far into their casing as
they will go.
When removing accessories, always hold them by the plastic part - the metal parts will
be very hot.
Plugging in your appliance:
When you have attached an accessory to the handle, place the appliance on a flat
surface.
• Plug it in and set the switch to position 1 or 2.
• Wait a few minutes to allow your appliance to reach its working temperature (6 min for
the styling iron; 7 min for the straightening and crimping plates).
The ceramic coating of the plates will protect your hair from excessive temperatures, by
distributing the heat uniformly.

Use this product on clean, untangled, DRY hair (to avoid damaging your hair).

1 - STYLING IRONS
- Gather a small section of hair (approx. 2 to 3 cm across).
- Press the lever to open the tong, then slip the tips of the hair between the roller and the
tong.
- Release the lever to close the tong. Check that all the hair tips are correctly wound
under the tong, in the direction of the curl.
- Hold the insulated plastic end with the other hand.
- Turn the styler to wind the section of hair around the accessory. Wind the hair, working
towards the scalp. Take care not to burn yourself.
- Keep the iron in place for around 20 seconds (longer for tighter curls).
- Unwind the iron halfway, then open the tong and allow the section of hair to slide free.
- Repeat the procedure with different sections of hair to form more curls.
PROFESSIONAL TIPS
• To create extra volume: divide your curls using your fingers.
• To obtain really tight curls: wind small sections of hair at a time.
• For softer curls: wind on more hair.
• To prevent flyaway ends: check that the hair tips are trapped under the tong and lying
in the direction of the curl.
• For a more natural, wavy look: lightly brush or comb your hair once the curls have
cooled.
