IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When using electrical appliances, especially when children are present, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
KEEP AWAY FROM WATER.
DANGER: As with most electrical appliances, electrical parts are electrically live even when the switch is off.

To reduce the risk of death by electric shock:

Always “unplug it” immediately after using.
DO NOT use while bathing.
DO NOT place or store appliance where it can fall or be pulled into a tub or sink.
DO NOT use near, place in or drop into water or other liquid.
If an appliance falls into water, “unplug it” immediately. DO NOT reach into the water.
DO NOT use an appliance with a twisted, bent or otherwise damaged cord.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electrocution, or injury to persons:

An appliance should never be left unattended when plugged in. Turn off the switch and unplug the electrical cord when not in use.
Close supervision is necessary when this appliance is used by, on, or near children or individuals with certain disabilities.
Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in this manual. DO NOT use attachments not recommended by the manufacturer.
Never operate this appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly, or if it has been dropped, damaged, or dropped into water. Return the appliance to a service center for examination and repair.
NOTE: Helen of Troy L.P. does not have an authorized service center. However, if this appliance is still under warranty, return it to the Helen of Troy Consumer Service Department for replacement.
Keep the cord away from heated surfaces. DO NOT pull, twist or wrap the cord around the appliance.
Never use while sleeping.
Never drop or insert any object into any opening.
DO NOT use outdoors or operate where aerosol (spray) products are being used or where oxygen is being administered.
This curling iron is hot when in use. DO NOT let eyes and bare skin touch heated surfaces. Use the handle.
DO NOT use an extension cord with this appliance.
DO NOT place the heated appliance directly on any surface while it is hot or plugged in. Use the stand provided.
Keep the safety stand extended forward while in use.
DO NOT operate this appliance with a voltage converter.

USER MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

Maintenance
Your appliance is virtually maintenance-free. No lubrication is needed. Keep heated surfaces clean and free of dust, dirt, and hair spray. If cleaning becomes necessary, unplug the appliance from the power source and clean with a damp cloth. If the cord becomes twisted, untwist prior to use.

WARNING : If any malfunction occurs, do not attempt to repair. This appliance has no user-serviceable parts.

STORAGE
Unplug appliance when not in use.
Allow appliance to cool and store out of reach of children in a safe, dry location. Never wrap the cord around the appliance since this will cause the cord to wear prematurely and break. Handle cord carefully for longer life and avoid jerking, bending sharply, twisting, or straining cord, especially at plug connections.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance may have a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.

HOW TO USE

IMPORTANT: During the first few minutes of initial use, you may notice smoke and a slight odor. This is normal and will quickly disappear.

• Keep heated surfaces away from contact with all skin areas. Do not touch barrels with fingertips.
• For shorter hair, place a thin plastic comb between scalp and iron to avoid touching scalp.
• Test small section of hair to determine correct heat setting for type of hair

PREHEATING

Plug the waver into an electrical outlet and slide the On/Off Switch to the “On” position.
Set the Temperature Dial at the desired position, and allow waver to heat.
It takes 60-90 seconds to heat up. For best results, allow waver to heat for 2-3 minutes before using.

CAUTION: Wavers with heat-control dials operate at high temperatures when used on high settings. When using for the first time, begin with the LOWEST setting. Please read all instructions carefully before using. For best results, follow these guidelines:

TEMPERATURE SETTINGS

Heat Selection Hair Type
280°F – 330°F For fine, thin hair
330°F – 380°F For wavy, medium-textured hair
380°F – 410°F For thick, coarse hair

Warning: Be very careful when using your waver as the barrels get very hot in the higher temperature settings.

STYLING
For styling, hair should be clean and dry.

Comb or brush out a two-inch wide section of hair and place between barrels.
You will achieve the best results if you work from the scalp to the ends of your hair. Lightly clamp the hair strand close to the scalp. Close clamp and hold the waver in this position for a few seconds, depending on the type of hair (5 seconds for fine hair and up to 8 seconds for medium to coarse hair).
To release, simply release the handles and let the hair slip out.
The waving process requires some overlapping; match the outermost wave of your hair with the barrels and hold in position again for a few seconds. Repeat the process until you have achieved the look you desire.
When styling is complete, slide the On/Off Switch to the “Off” position and unplug the styling tool.
Allow the hair to cool before combing, brushing, or touching.

Storage Loop
When styling is finished, turn the switch to “OFF,” unplug the appliance and allow it to cool. To store the appliance, use the thumb grip to press the barrels together, then push the storage loop up and hook it into the groove at the end of the thumb grip. DO NOT fasten the storage loop in the closed position while styling. Locking the heated waver onto the hair can cause serious damage to the hair.
