How to use the locking switch?
The locking switch is used to hold the plates together when the straightener is not in
use for easy and convenient storage. After use, turn the appliance off and allow to cool.
Hold the straightener handle together and slide the locking switch across to secure the
plates. To unlock, simply slide the locking switch in the other direction.
How to use the heat protection mat/storage pouch?
The heat protection mat also doubles as an instant storage pouch.To use the pouch as a heat protection
mat, simply unzip and unfold the pouch until it opens completely. Place the straightener on the silver
heat protection surface and begin styling your hair.
To use the storage pouch, unzip the pouch until it is completely open. Simply place the straightener with
power cord and plug inside the pouch.To close, simply zip the storage pouch closed and fold the heat
mat up and then click the pouch together. Ensure that the appliance is switched off and has cooled down
before storing. Never allow the plates to touch the power cord or plug, as this may scratch the surface of
the straightener and/or the straightening plates.
How does the ionic feature work?
Many aspects of modern living, including air conditioning, contact with man-made fibres and air
pollution add to the build-up of static electricity in the hair. Even brushing and towel-drying the hair
can increase these levels.This static charge causes the scales, or cuticles of the hair, to push hair strands
apart, resulting in a rough hair surface. Consequently, hair may have a dull appearance.
High levels of static charge cause hair to become‘flyaway’ and difficult to style. The advanced internal
ionic generator conditions hair by emitting negative ions to reduce static, by leaving hair silky and shiny
with reduced frizz.
Buzzing noise
This product will make a faint buzzing noise, due to the Ionic conditioning technology™ function. This
noise is completely normal, and part of standard operation of this product.

What is the CeramicTEC™ advanced ceramic heating technology?
This straightener features a microprocessor controlled professional ceramic heater for perfect results by
intelligently maintaining a high heat level.The internal ceramic heater allows for ultra fast heat up and
consistent heat delivery.This system provides consistent styling power so that every strand of hair is set
with the same level of heat and comes out the same way, for a perfect, flawless finish.
What is Ceramic Intense PlateTechnology?
Ceramic Intense PlateTechnology has 2x the ceramic content of regular Ceramic Technology™.
It helps to tame and reduce frizzes and flyways by helping to prevent heat damage and spreading
heat evenly and consistently. Hair damage is minimised as heat is distributed evenly from the styling
appliance avoiding harmful hot spots.
