HOW TO USE YOUR ULTIMATE STYLER
WARNING! This appliance reaches up to 235°C, please take care to avoid the hot plates
coming in to direct contact with the skin, in particular the ears, eyes, face and neck.
CAUTION! Do not place the appliance directly onto any heat sensitive surface whilst in
operation. Use the heat mat provided to protect the work surface whilst styling your hair.
•Ensure hair is dry and combed through.
•Press the I/0 button to switch the styler on.
• The styler will automatically heat up to 180°C. When it’s reached this temperature the
digital display will remain at 180°C.
•Use the temperature buttons (+/-) to select the preferred temperature.
•The temperature increases in 5°C increments for specific temperature control
(180°C-235°C). NOTE: Always start with a lower temperature setting and increase
gradually if required.
•The display will flash 3 times to confirm the temperature has been selected.
•After use, press the I/0 button to switch off and unplug the styler.
•Allow the styler to cool down before storing away.

TEMPERATURE MEMORY FUNCTION
The memory feature allows you to select your preferred temperature setting and store it
for consistent results during each use.
•To programme your preferred temperature, ensure the styler is switched on. Select the
temperature you require by using the temperature buttons (+/-) and by viewing the
digital display.
•Hold down the memory button (M) for 3 seconds. The temperature on the digital display
will flash 3 times to confirm the temperature has been stored.
•The memory function will store the selected temperature setting for all uses.
•When switching the styler back on for the next use, simply press the memory button
(M) and your stored temperature will be automatically selected.
NOTE: To reset the stored temperature at any time, simply select a different
temperature and hold down the memory button for 3 seconds, wait for it to flash 3
times and the new temperature will be stored.

STRAIGHTENING
• Ensure hair is dry and combed through.
• Divide hair into sections and place the section between the plates, close to the roots.
• Gently slide the plates down the length of the hair. If you want to create some shape at
the ends of the hair, slightly bend your wrist inwards or outwards as you reach the end
of each section.
• Repeat as necessary through the remaining sections of your hair.
• Use the heat protection mat to place your styler on between each section to protect
surfaces.
• Allow the hair to cool fully before combing through.

CREATING CURLS
•Separate a section of hair. The smaller the section the more defined the curl. The larger
the section the looser the curl or wave.
•Take the hair section and place between the plates, roughly 3 inches from the roots.
(See Fig. 1).
•Turn the styler 180° back on itself so that the hair is wrapped once around the outside
of the styler. (See Fig. 2).
•Slowly glide the styler along the length of hair from root to tip in a downward motion.
(See Fig. 3).
• Release the styler from the hair.
•To ensure the curl sits neatly in place, hold the end of the section you have curled and
twist it in the direction of the curl. (See Fig. 4).

HELPFUL TIPS
•Don’t rub hair with a towel when drying – this makes the cuticle rough, which can give
the appearance of frizz and therefore prevents shine.
•Try not to shampoo every day - washing too often can dehydrate your hair.
•Always use a heat protection product on your hair before styling.
•Adjust the temperature of your Ultimate Styler depending on your hair type to prevent
drying your hair out. Use the guide on page 8 to help find the right temperature for your
hair type.
•Experiment with your styler and unleash your creative side by using it for straight styles,
waves, curls and flicks!

AUTO SHUT-OFF
This appliance has an automatic shut off feature for added safety. If the appliance is
switched on for more than 72 minutes continuously, then it will automatically switch off.
If you wish to continue using the appliance after this time, simply press the on/off button
to turn the power on.

LOOKING AFTER YOUR ULTIMATE STYLER
•In order for your styler to retain its top performance it is important to make sure there
is no product build up on the plates. This will ensure the plates always glide smoothly
through the hair. When the styler is completely cool and unplugged, use a damp cloth
over the surface of the plates to wipe away any styling product.
•Keep the power cord away from the hot plates at all times.
•Before storing away, always allow the plates to cool down and place in the heat mat
provided for extra protection.
•To prevent cord damage, do not wrap the cord around the styler – always store the
cord next to it.
