while the appliance is cooling down do not touch the heated bristles or allow children or those with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge to touch the appliance whilst it is cooling.

The ghd glide™ has the following safety features:

1. Sleep mode: if the ghd hot brush has been left on and has not been used for 60 minutes, a safety feature will automatically turn the hot brush off. The hot brush will play the sleep mode tune, the plate will start to cool and the light will slowly pulse till the plate reaches a safe temperature.

1. To restart the appliance while it is in sleep mode, simply turn it on by pressing and holding down the ON/OFF button for more than 1 second.
