USE

Straightening: Plug in the appliance, switch on and allow to heat up. The default temperature is 200°C.
For a smooth straightening, press once on the Protect button and the straightener will reach 180°C; twice and the straightener will reach 160°C; three times and the straightener will reach 140°C; and four times and the straightener will reach 200°C. Press the same button again and the straightener will return to 180°C.
For an intense straightening, press once on the Intense button and the straightener will reach 220°C; twice and the straightener will reach 235°C. Press the same button again and the straightener will return to 220°C.
The indicator light corresponding to the temperature level selected flashes until the temperature is reached.
Thoroughly brush hair and section. Start with the underneath sections of hair. Take a section of about 5 cm width and place it between the 2 hot plates, being careful to avoid touching the hot surface of the appliance with your hand. Hold the hair firmly with the straightener and slide slowly along from the roots to the tips. Let the hair cool down before you comb it. After use, switch off and unplug the appliance. Allow to cool before storing away.
Styling: To create perfectly shaped bobs use as above but turn the appliance under at the end of your hair and hold in place for a couple of seconds and then release. For flick-ups follow the same procedure but angle the appliance out at the end of your hair instead of under.

Notes:

• The first time you use the unit, you may notice a little steam and a particular odor: this is common and will disappear the next time you use it. Note: When you are straightening, you might see some steam. Do not be concerned, this could be because of evaporation of the sebum, some residual hair products (leave-in hair care, hairspray, etc.) or excess water that is evaporating from your hair.
• The ioniser within the device frees gives off ions which have an anti-static effect, leaving your hair nice and soft with a shine. Please note: It is quite normal to hear a slight noise, similar to a crackle: this is the characteristic noise of the ion generator.
• Always select a lower temperature during the first use.
• It is possible to use a heat protection spray for optimal protection of the hair.
• If straightening is not effective enough, tighten the plates more firmly on your strand and let the appliance glide more slowly.

MAINTENANCE

• Unplug the straightening iron and allow to cool completely.
• Clean the plates using a soft, dampened cloth, without soap, to preserve the optimal quality of the plates. Do not scratch the plates.
• To protect the plates, store the straightening iron with the plates closed tightly.
