This appliance is for household use and may be plugged into any AC
electrical outlet (ordinary household current). Do not use any other
electrical outlet.
WARNING: This multiple temperature curling brush has been specially
designed to curl very coarse, thick, hard-to-curl hair. Due to this special
application, the barrel of this curling brush will be hotter on the HI (13-15)
settings than regular dual-heat curling brush. Due to the extreme heat
capabilities of this brush, the barrel will be very hot in the HI (13-15)
settings, so extra care should be taken when using.
• Keep unit away from contact with all skin areas. Do not touch brush
barrel with fingertips.
• For shorter hair, place a thin plastic comb between scalp and curling
brush barrel to avoid touching scalp.
• Place fingers of free hand on safety tip when more control is needed
for curling.
• Test small section of hair to determine correct heat setting for type
of hair.
SPECIAL FEATURE: This brush features solid-state electronic circuitry with
a heat sensor that detects temperature loss and quickly boosts the power
to bring the heat level back to optimum styling temperature. This allows
styling in half the time it takes with an ordinary brush.
TO USE: For a complete styling, hair should be clean, dry and free from dirt,
hair spray, creams, etc. (This brush can also be used for quick touch-ups
any time.)
PRE-HEAT: Rest the brush on its built-in safety stand on a smooth, flat
surface, and plug in. Turn on, set the heat control at the desired position,
and allow brush to heat.
HOW TO GET PROFESSIONAL RESULTS:
This unique curling brush has been designed with multiple temperatures,
providing very high heat in the HI (13-15) settings for curling very coarse,
thick, hard-to-curl hair, and very low heat in the LO (1-3) settings for curling
extra fine, damaged or dry hair. It also provides a full range of heat settings
between LO and HI, for all normal textures and thicknesses of hair.
FOR FAST HEAT-UP: Turn heat control dial to HI (13-15) settings. It will take
about 60 seconds to heat up. To reach optimum temperature, allow brush
to heat for 90 seconds. Then, select a temperature according to the type of
hair (see below for adjusting temperature).
TEST A SMALL SECTION OF HAIR BEFORE USING; THEN ADJUST
TEMPERATURE DEPENDING ON TYPE OF HAIR.
HEAT SETTINGS:
HI (13-15): These settings are very hot. Use only if hair is very coarse and
highly resistant, but in good condition.
MED/HI (9-12): Use heat settings in this range for dense, hard-to-curl hair in
good condition.
MEDIUM (7-9): Use heat settings in this range for thick, wavy hair in good
condition.
LO/MED (4-6): Use heat settings in this range for easy-to-curl, normal hair.
LO (1-3): Use LO heat setting for very fine, fragile, light-colored hair.

POLARIZED PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the
other). As a safety feature, this plug fits in a polarized outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit into the outlet, reverse the plug
and try again. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician.
Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
LINE CORD SAFETY TIPS
1. Never pull or yank on the cord or the appliance.
2. To insert plug, grasp it firmly and guide it into outlet.
3. To disconnect appliance, grasp plug and remove it from outlet.
4. Before each use, inspect the line cord for cuts and/or abrasion marks.
If any are found, this indicates that the appliance should be serviced
and the line cord replaced. Please return it to our Service Department
or to an authorized service representative.
5. Never wrap the cord tightly around the appliance, as this could place
undue stress on the cord where it enters the appliance and cause it to
fray and break.
DO NOT OPERATE APPLIANCE IF THE LINE CORD SHOWS ANY DAMAGE,
OR IF APPLIANCE WORKS INTERMITTENTLY OR STOPS WORKING
ENTIRELY.
IMPORTANT:
During the first few minutes of initial use, there may be a slight odor. This is
normal and will quickly disappear.
HOW TO USE
This appliance requires little maintenance and contains no user
serviceable parts. Do not try to repair it yourself. Refer it to qualified
service personnel if servicing is needed.
TO CLEAN: Unplug curling brush and allow to cool. Brush must be cleaned
only when cold. Use a soft, slightly damp cloth to wipe the handle. Do not
allow water or any other liquid to go into handle of the brush.
TO STORE: Unplug appliance and let it cool; store in its box or in a clean,
dry place. Store the cord loosely coiled. Never wrap the cord around unit;
this could cause the cord to wear prematurely and break. Do not put any
stress on cord where it enters the handle, as it could cause cord to fray
