Connecting the attachments
1 Insert one of the attachments into the handle. Make sure that the
stand is pointing downwards (Fig. 2).
2 Turn the locking ring on the handle to the right until the bold
arrow on the locking ring is in line with the arrow on the handle.
The attachment is now securely xed to the handle (Fig. 3).
Follow this procedure for all attachments.To detach the
attachments, turn the locking ring to the left and pull the
attachment out of the handle.
Unplug the appliance when you remove an attachment after or during
styling.Avoid touching the metal and ceramic parts of the attachment,
as they are hot.
Using the appliance
With the Salon Multistylist 8-in-1 you can create tight curls, large curls,
waves, ringlets, crimps and a sleek look.
1 After having connected the attachment to the handle, place the
appliance on the stand of the attachment and put the mains plug in
the wall socket.The pilot light goes on and the appliance starts
heating up (Fig. 4).
2 Start styling when the ready dot on the attachment changes
colour (Fig. 5).
3 When using one of the curling attachments or the brush
attachment, always make sure the end of the lock is wound in the
required direction.
4 How long you have to keep the styler in your hair depends on the
thickness of your hair. If you have ne hair, 5 seconds will be long
enough for a good result. Leave the styler in your hair longer (max.
10 seconds) if your hair is thicker.

When unwinding a lock of hair, make sure that you hold the brush
away from the underlying hair.

brush onto the curling attachment.

crimping/straightening attachment. Start crimping at the
roots (Fig. 10).

section of the same lock of hair between the plates. Make sure
there is an overlap. Repeat this process until you have reached the
end of the lock.

this would ruin them.
The waves, curls and crimps will disappear if your hair gets wet (for
instance when you wash it).You can also use the straightening plates to
make them disappear.
Sleek look

one by one by grabbing their cool tips and pulling them out of the
attachment (Fig. 11).
2 Turn the plates round and slide them back into the
attachment (Fig. 12).
Make sure that the edges of the plates are inserted properly into the
grooves.
