USING THE DEVICE
Before use
• Unpack the device and remove all the packing materials.
• Carefully check the device to ensure it is complete and undamaged. You should only use the device if it is
complete and has not suffered any damage.
Using the device
1. Connect the mains plug of the device to the wall socket. Turn on the socket, then push the power button (4) to
switch the device on. The heating indicator (2) will illuminate. Only hold the handle and take care not to
touch the ceramic-coated styling plates when the device is switched on.
2. The styling plates will be hot enough to use within a few minutes. They will reach a maximum temperature of
approximately 160°C.
Warning! If you need to put the device down for a moment when using it, always place
it on a heat-resistant surface and make sure there is no flammable material nearby.
Pay attention to where you place the device and never leave it unattended during use.
3. When you've finished styling your hair, use the power button (4) to switch off the device and then disconnect
the plug from the mains socket. Place the hair straighteners on a heat-resistant surface until they have cooled
down completely. Do not touch the styling plates and keep them away from any flammable material.
Practical advice for hair styling
Straight hair: put a section of hair around 4cm-5cm wide between the styling plates. Close the device, move it
slowly from the root of the hair to the ends, then open it. Allow between 5 and 8 seconds for straightening
thinner hair; thicker hair will take 10-15 seconds.
Softly twisting locks of hair: put a section of hair around 4cm-5cm wide between the styling plates. Follow the
advice above but also turn the device while moving it through your hair.
Outward 'flicks': put a section of hair between the styling plates, keeping the plates as near the roots as
possible. Grip the hair and move the device from the root of the hair to the ends, turning the styling plates
outwards as you reach the ends.
Inward 'bobs': put a section of hair between the styling plates, keeping the plates as near the roots as possible.
Grip the hair and move the device from the root of the hair to the ends, turning the styling plates inwards as
you reach the ends.
Do not brush or comb your hair immediately after styling. Wait until your hair cools down,
otherwise the styling effect will be reduced or lost.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Warning! Before cleaning, always switch off the device and remove the power cable
from the mains socket. Wait for the device to cool completely before you start
cleaning. Never immerse it in water or place it under running water.
• To clean the handle, wipe it with a soft cloth that's been moistened with a few drops of mild detergent. Next,
remove the detergent by wiping with a soft lint-free cloth moistened with lukewarm water. Finally, wipe the
cleaned surfaces with a dry lint-free cloth. Take care to ensure no moisture enters the device. Make sure the
hair straighteners are completely dry before using them again.
• Never use solvents (acetone, benzene, petrol etc.) to clean the device because these materials could dissolve
the plastic cover and damage the internal components. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaning agents.
• Never scrub or scour the styling plates; this can damage the glossy surface. Any dirt should be removed with a
soft lint-free cloth.
• If you don't plan to use the device for a while after cleaning it, place it in a nylon bag and store it in a place
that is free from dust, damp and frost. Do not wrap the mains cable around the device when storing it
because the insulation can deteriorate or break under these circumstances.
