OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Your Conair True Glow^TM All-In-One Nail Care Center operates on an AC adapter. Adapter can be plugged into the housing to operate the nail dryer or to charge the power handle. The adapter can also be used to operate the power handle directly. Your Conair True Glow^TM All-In-One Nail Care Center should be charged using only the charger supplied.

CHARGING

Ensure that the switch on the power handle is in the OFF position. Connect the appliance to the charger by inserting the small plug at the end of the charger lead into the corresponding socket in the end of the handle. Plug the charger into wall outlet and allow unit to charge for 16 hours prior to initial use. To ensure the longest life of the rechargeable cells, do not leave the appliance charging for more than 24 consecutive hours.

CORDED USE

1. Ensure the power handle is switched off.
2. Insert the small plug at the end of the charger lead into the corresponding socket on the end of the power handle.
3. The power handle has two interchangeable heads. The rotary head works with round attachments that spin in a circular motion and the linear head works with rectangular plates that move in a back-andforth motion. The rotary head is already attached to the power handle. Pull power handle up to remove from the tray attachment.
4. To change heads: twist the head in a counterclockwise motion and pull up; head comes off. Gently push other head onto plastic base and twist slightly with clockwise motion until head clicks into secure position.
   
5. To attach discs, plates or cones to the rotary head, insert metal post of disc into the white plastic tube on head and gently push down.

To attach plates to the linear head, match up rounded end of plate with round end of head and snap plate onto head. To remove attachments, simply pull off.

6. Your All-in-One Nail Care Center contains a number of attachments. The coarser discs and plates are ideal for shaping and eliminating ragged edges for a clean finish. The finer cones and plates smooth unsightly ridges. The polishing cone and disc provide the flawless, smooth surface needed for nail polish application and help polish nails to a healthy-looking luster.
7. To soften nails and cuticles before a manicure, pull out the manicurist's soap dish, fill it with warm, soapy water and soak your finger tips for a few minutes. Dry your hands thoroughly before using the power handle and attachments.
   
8. After you have attached a head and an appropriate attachment to the power handle, turn the power handle ON and carefully start shaping, smoothing or polishing your nails.
   
9. Your All-in-One Nail Care Center has a nail dryer that will help shorten fresh nail polish drying time. Simply insert your hand into the nail dryer, pushing down slightly. That will start the nail dryer. Check nails after a few minutes to see if polish is dry.
   
10. After using the Nail Care Center several times, you will find the attachment and speed combinations that give you the results you desire.

MANICURE

1. Soak your nails in warm soapy water using your manicurist's soap dish, then dry thoroughly.
2. Decide on the nail shape you want. The three most common nail shapes are round, square, or square with rounded edges.
3. Use the Smoothing Disc/Plate to smooth the edges of each nail. Then use the rounded end of the Cuticle Shaper to gently push the cuticles away from the nail plate. If desired, massage lotion or cream into the cuticle to help soften cuticle and promote healthy nails. Unwanted rough or hard skin can be reduced by using the Smoothing Disc. In cases where ridges and grooves are present, the Smoothing Disc/Plate can be used to gently and carefully reduce the unevenness, using short intermittent strokes. This is not recommended more than once every eight weeks.
4. To give nails a healthy, natural look, use the Polishing Disc or Cone,* maximum of 30 seconds per nail, taking care to avoid the cuticle.
5. Finish your manicure by using a moisturizing lotion or cream.

*Cones can be used on acrylic nails.

PEDICURE

1. Soak your feet for five minutes in warm, soapy water and dry thoroughly.
2. Use the Smoothing Disc/Plate to reduce the length of the nail. Toenails should be filed straight across to avoid ingrown toenails. Use a fine Smoothing Disc/Plate on a low speed as a finishing touch to the edges.
3. To reduce calluses or rough or hard skin, use the Sapphire Cones or a Smoothing Disc/Plate. The thickness or dead skin can be reduced by using the side of the Sapphire Cones. Where ridges and furrows are present, the Smoothing Disc can also be used to gently and carefully reduce the unevenness, using short intermittent strokes. This is not recommended more than once every eight weeks.
4. Finish your pedicure by using a moisturizing lotion or cream.
