a qualied electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature. Use of this at
iron on the same circuit or fuse with other electrical products or appliances may trip a
15 amp circuit breaker or blow a 15 amp fuse. NEVER replace the fuse with one rated
higher than the capacity of the circuit. Doing so could result in an electrical re.

iron does not turn on, please press hard on the reset button.

HOW-TO STRAIGHTEN YOUR HAIR
Some experience is necessary when learning to use this straightening iron. Aer using
the iron several times, you will learn the ideal way to straight and style your hair.
3Divide the hair into manageable sections
and clip the upper layers on top of your
head and out of the way.
1Hair should be dry and free of tangles. Spray
HSI thermal protector (sold separately) onto
your hair and spread evenly with ngers.
5Starting at the roots, rmly clamp hair
between the two plates and glide down the
hair section towards the end in one smooth
motion. For longer hair, you may nd it’s
easier to straighten the back sections by
bringing it towards the front.
4Start by taking a 2” section from the side or
back of your head.
2Press power button to turn on at iron and
adjust the temperature according to your
hair type using the (+) and (–) buttons.
6Keep the iron moving to avoid damaging
your hair from excess heat. Adjust the heat
settings as needed before moving to the
next section of hair. Because the iron is
already hot, it may take some time to cool.

7Take another section of hair from the
bottom to continue straightening section
by section.

drop a few drops of HSI Argan Oil (sold

and apply evenly starting at the ends.
8To make it easier to manage, clip sections
of your hair to keep it out of your way while
you work on another section.
Never touch heating plates when hot
