SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance is intended for professional use. Use on Alternating Current (50-60Hz) only. Standard appliances are designed to operate at rated voltage.
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.

DUAL VOLTAGE
This curling iron has dual voltage. It will automatically adjust to the proper voltage. Use an adapter plug with correct configuration prior to use in an outlet.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

These styling appliances have a special protective application and the barrel will be extremely hot when the temperature regulator dial is set at its highest setting. Extra care should be taken when using. This product may emit smoke during initial use. The smoke is not harmful and will quickly disappear. It is only the protective application on the heating element being burned off.

SUPER STYLING GUIDE
Your best looks begin with a good haircut that’s well maintained. Always treat hair right with superior quality shampoos, conditioners, and finishing products.

FOR TOUSLED HAIR
Create soft, tousled waves by curling each hair section in a random direction. Then turn head upside down, shake, and gently scrunch hair with fingers. Bring head back to position and repeat for fullest volume.

FOR WIDE WAVES
Pick up a section of hair and place the curling iron under it, close to the scalp, making a half-turn downward. Remove the curling iron. Working with the same hair section, start where you left off and place the curling iron on top of the hair, curling it up a half turn. Proceed down the same hair section, alternating the curl upward and downward. Repeat procedure with remaining sections of hair. For best results, hair should be about 6–8 inches long.

CURLING IRON BASICS

1. Plug the appliance into a standard electrical outlet.
2. Power on the iron and choose the desired temperature.
3. Use the +/- temperature controls to select the setting for your hair type. You can use the chart outlined below as a reference. The iron will heat up very quickly
   TEMPERATURE SETTINGS| HAIR TYPE
   ---|---
   265°F (130°C) – 300°F (150°C)| Fragile, very fine hair
   320°F (160°C) – 340°F (170°C)| Thin, easy-to-curl hair
   355°F (180°C) – 375°F (190°C)| Normal textured hair
   395°F (200°C) – 410°F (210°C)| Wavy or curly hair
   410°F (210°C) – 430°F (220°C)| Coarse, very thick hair

The selected temperature automatically locks after 3 seconds. To unlock/change the temperature, press and hold the +/- temperature controls for 2 seconds. TEMPERATURE MEMORY FUNCTION: the iron automatically reverts to the last temperature selected when powered on.

4. Section hair evenly, and comb each section before winding. Place curling iron midway up the hair section then spread hair evenly between spoon and barrel. To avoid crimped ends, make sure they are securely wound under the spoon in the direction of the desired curl.5.
5. Wind the hair up as far as you want it curled, being careful not to let the iron touch the scalp. Hold in place for 8–12 seconds. For looser, free-flowing curls, roll more hair. For tighter, bouncier curls, roll less hair.
6. To remove the curling iron, unwind the hair. To set the curl, do not comb or brush hair until it cools.
7. Some experimenting is necessary when first using the curling iron or when changing to a different hairstyle

USER MAINTENANCE

Your iron is virtually maintenance-free. No lubrication is needed. Keep all vents and openings clear of dirt and dust.

WARNING: IF YOU THINK THE POWER IS OFF WHEN THE SWITCH IS OFF, YOU’RE WRONG.

KEEP AWAY FROM WATER Everyone knows that electricity and water are a dangerous combination, but did you know that an electrical appliance is still electrically live even if the switch is off? If the plug is in, the power is on. So when you are not using your appliances, keep them unplugged.

ALWAYS UNPLUG SMALL APPLIANCES.
