Usage Tips
Straightening Your Hair
1. Hair should be dry and free of tangles before using the styling iron.
2. Plug the styler into an electrical outlet. Press and hold the ON/OFF button until
the unit turns on.
3. Adjust the temperature using the temperature buttons. The display will flash
while the unit heats up, then glow steadily when it has reached the selected
temperature.
4. Test the styler on a small section of hair, then adjust the temperature up or down
before styling the rest of your hair.
5. Divide hair into manageable sections and clip the upper layers on top of your
head and out of the way. Work with underneath layers first.
6. Take a small section of hair, pull hair down and away from your scalp, and hold it
taut.
7. Starting at the roots, clamp hair firmly between the plates and run the styler
down the entire hair strand, from root to tip, in one smooth stroke. Do not hold it
in one area for a long period of time or damage to hair may occur.
8. To create curves or flicks, rotate your wrist to turn the iron in toward your head
or out away from your head as you run the iron down the hair strand.
9. Repeat with all the sections of your hair, working with the underneath layers first,
then the top and sides.
10.When you are finished styling, press and hold the ON/OFF button to turn the unit
off, unplug it, and allow it to cool before storing.
NOTE:
■ If you find that you need a higher setting while straightening your hair, simply
adjust the temperature to a higher heat setting.
■ While straightening your hair, if you find that you need a lower setting, adjust the
temperature to a lower heat setting. Because the unit is already hot, it may take
a few minutes to cool off.
