3. BRINGING INTO SERVICE
Your appliance will heat up very quickly (ready to use in less than 60 seconds) and the temperature
will remain stable throughout use.
- Plug in the appliance.
- To open the tongs, press the "Lock System" button.
- Set the ON / OFF switch to position I: temperature 130 will then appear on the digital screen.
- Wait for less than 60 seconds: as soon as the word “OK” appears on the digital screen, the appli-
ance will be ready to use in the minimum temperature position (130°C).
- Select the ideal temperature for your hair using the -/+ buttons: press the – button to reduce the
temperature or the + button to increase it.
The digital screen will show the selected temperature. As soon as the appliance reaches the re-
quested temperature, the word “OK” will appear.
- If you wish to use the Turbo function (an extra 20°C for a few seconds for tufts and unruly locks),
press the Turbo button. This function will stop by itself after a few seconds.
Note: You can stop this function at any time (for example, if you set it by mistake) by just pressing
the Turbo button again. The function will then stop immediately.
- To turn the appliance off, press the ON/OFF button for 2 seconds.
- Unplug the appliance after use and let it cool down completely before storing.
Note: To avoid any handling error (inadvertently pressing the +/- buttons during use) this appliance
is equipped with a locking function.
If you wish to lock your temperature setting during use, press the + or – button for 2 seconds. Your
appliance will then lock; a padlock sign will appear on the screen.
If you wish to change your appliance’s temperature, you will need to unlock it by again pressing the
+ or – button for 2 seconds. Your appliance will then unlock; the padlock sign will disappear from
the screen.
You can then vary the temperature by pressing the +/- buttons.
4. USE
Hair must be untangled, clean and dry (or just slightly moistened).
• Do not use the appliance on synthetic hair (wigs, extensions, etc.).
• Form a small lock a few centimetres in width, comb it and place it between the plates.
Hold the hair firmly between the plates and slide the appliance slowly from the roots to the tip of
the hair.
• If your hair is very thick or curly, you can optimise the result by lightly spraying water onto the
strands before smoothing.
• The ceramic coating on the plates protects your hair against overheating by uniformly spreading
the heat.
• Wait for the smoothed hair to cool down before styling.
HAIRDRESSER’S TIPS
• Always start by smoothing the locks underneath. Work from the back of the neck first before
going onto the side of the head and finish with the front.
• To avoid streaks along the lengths, work using a smooth and uninterrupted movement.
• To highlight, apply hair setting lotion before smoothing.
5. MAINTENANCE
CAUTION! Always unplug your appliance and allow it to cool before cleaning it.
• To clean the appliance, unplug it and then wipe with a damp cloth and dry with a dry cloth.
