Instructions for use
Before use:
- Remove the appliance’s protective film.
Use:
- Unroll the cable completely before plugging it
in.
- Connect the appliance to the mains.
- Turn the appliance on using the on/off switch.
- Select the desired temperature using the
switches. Select the temperature according to
hair type.
- In general it is advisable to select the lowest
temperature for very fine, dyed or damaged
hair. Use higher temperatures for hair that is
curly, thick or difficult to manage. Consult the
table below:
Temperature Hair type
130° - 160° Fine, bleached or damaged hair
160° - 190° Normal, dyed or wavy hair
190° - 210° Thick or curly hair
- Wait for the temperature, which appears on
the digital temperature display, to match the
selected temperature. The hair straightener will
be ready for use.
- The appliance has an integrated PTC
resistance system to keep the temperature of
the entire plate area stable.
- The ceramic-tourmaline plates emit negative
ions, which eliminate static electricity therefore
avoiding frizz and improving overall results.
Moreover, the tourmaline has an easy-glide
surface, which helps to reduce straightening
time.
- For perfect hair straightening, separate a
lock of hair that is not too thick put it in a
perpendicular position between the plates and
gently pull from the roots to the tips.
- If necessary, repeat the operation again.
- Proceed gradually with the rest of the hair.
- To give more shape o your hair, follow the
same operation as described previously, but
this time turn the straightener inwards (like
the brush when brushing your hair). If you
would like to create an informal look, turn the
straightener outwards so that the tips of your
hair face outwards.
Once you have finished using the appliance:
- Turn the appliance off, using the on/off switch.
- Unplug the appliance from the mains.
