GETTING STARTED
Hair should be clean and completely dry before using the hot brush. Plug the
brush into an electrical outlet. Turn on unit.
WARNING: The hot brush will get very hot within a few seconds and should not
be placed in contact with the skin after the hot brush has been turned on.
The brush’s unique 5 ultra-high heat temperature settings and Instant Heat

hair, a low temperature will provide the best results. If you have thick, wavy
or hard-to-curl hair, keep the heat setting on high. You can vary the brush’s
temperature according to your particular need!

6. To curl the ends of the hair under, wrap the hair ends around the barrel.
7. Repeat as necessary.
TO AVOID TANGLING, NEVER ROLL THE HAIR AROUND THE HOT BRUSH MORE THAN TWO
TIMES.
NOTE: There will be a slight buzzing sound from the hot brush which is from
the ionic generator releasing the ions. This is normal.
STYLING TIPS
• For a flicked-out style, place the hot brush on the top of the hair section
and glide down the hair, wrapping the hair ends around the barrel in an upward
direction.
• For added root volume, place the hot brush under the hair section close to
the roots.
• Hold the hot brush in place for a few seconds.
• Remove the brush from the hair.
• Continue around the hair section and repeat as required.
• During use, do not place this appliance on any heat-sensitive surface. After
use, switch off and unplug the appliance. Continue to keep it out of the reach
of children as it will remain hot for several minutes

appliance is switched on for more than 60 minutes continuously, then it will
automatically switch off.

ON/OFF button until the LED displays 300°F and starts to blink, then use the
+/- buttons to select the heat setting you require. This will turn on the hot
brush and you can continue to style your hair
USER MAINTENANCE
Your hot brush is virtually maintenance free. No lubrication is needed. Keep all vents and openings clear of dirt and dust. If cleaning becomes necessary, disconnect the unit from the power source, allow to cool and wipe exterior with a cloth. If any abnormal condition occurs, unplug the unit, allow it to cool, and return it for repair to an authorized service representative only. No repairs should be attempted by the consumer.
CAUTION
NEVER allow the power supply cord to be pulled, twisted, or severely bent.
Never wrap the cord tightly around the appliance. Damage will occur at the
high flex point of entry into the appliance, causing it to rupture and short
circuit. Inspect the cord frequently for damage. Stop use immediately if
damage is visible or if unit stops or operates intermittently.
STORAGE
When not in use, your appliance is easy to store. Allow appliance to cool,
then simply store out of reach of children in a safe, dry location. Do not
jerk or strain cord at plug connections. Do not wrap the line cord around the
appliance. Allow the cord to hang or lie loose and straight at the point of
entry into the appliance.
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 electric 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.
