Place the tong on a flat, hard, heat resistant surface ensuring the
barrel does not come into contact with the surface. Plug in to any
household (120/240V AC) power outlet. Press the on/off switch to
switch the tong on. The LED indicator light on the top of the
handle will illuminate. The LED on and ready indicator light will
flash while the barrel of the tong is heating to the temperature
selected. When the temperature selected has been reached the
LED on and ready indicator light will be steady. To select a higher
temperature rotate the variable heat dial clockwise towards “+”.
To select a lower temperature press rotate the variable heat dial
anti-clockwise towards “-”. The lowest temperature setting is
80°C. The highest temperature setting is 210°C. Take extra care
when using the tong, as it can get very hot. It is important to
establish the correct temperature for your hair type prior to use to
prevent over drying or damage to your hair. If in doubt, start with
the low temperature setting first and increase the temperature
gradually.
