OPERATING

INSTRUCTIONS

This styling iron is intended for household use. Use on Alternating Current (60 hertz) only. This unit is designed to be operated at 120 volts AC.

This appliance has 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.

TO STYLE HAIR

Hair should be clean and completely dried before using the styling iron. Plug the iron into an electrical outlet. Turn on unit. The Power/Low setting will become illuminated.

To turn off, press Off button (light will go off). Never leave your styling iron on and unat- tended. However, should you fail to turn the unit off, it will shut itself off automatically within 60 minutes.

WARNING: The styling iron’s tourmaline ceramic-coated plates will get very hot within a few seconds.

GETTING STARTED

The iron’s unique three high-heat temperature settings and Instant Heat technology provide styling versatility for all hair types. If you have fine hair, a low temperature will provide the best results. If you have thick, wavy or hard- to-style hair, keep the heat setting on high.

You can vary the iron’s temperature according to your particular need!

STRAIGHTENING

Start with a hair section that is 1 in. wide and no more than 1⁄2 in. thick. Open the iron and place a hair section between the two hot plates, close to the scalp. Trap hair between the plates by firmly squeezing the handles together. While maintaining the tension, slowly pull the unit down along the hair sec- tion toward the ends of hair. For best results, use a light styling product before blow-drying hair. At the end of hair section, release the pressure on the handle and allow the hair section to slide out. Repeat process on addi- tional sections of hair until you achieve the hair style you desire. It may be necessary to repeat process on certain areas, depending on the texture of your hair.

CRIMPING

Push the converter switch to change plates to crimp. Take a section of hair about 1 in. wide. Starting at the scalp, close unit over hair and hold for 5–10 seconds. Repeat, moving down hair towards ends. You can easily go back and forth, switching plates to achieve a variety of crimp/textured styles.

CRIMP OR STRAIGHTEN WITH 1 TOOL	USING INSTANT HEAT, THE HIGH
	HEAT TEMPERATURE SETTINGS &
	UNIFORM HEAT RECOVERY SYSTEM
	This styling iron features a ceramic heater that
	maintains temperature during use for precision
	styling. It heats up to the temperature you’ve
	selected for your hair type.
	This Instant Heat technology has three
	high-heat temperature settings. There is a
	temperature range that’s gentle and safe
	for every type of hair, from the finest to the
	curliest and most resistant, to help you create
	the look you want. And that’s not all. Conair’s
	professional salon standards of engineering
	provide you with a uniform and improved heat
	recovery system that maintains the iron at a
	constant temperature. There is a constant surge
	of power to ensure that heat is continuously
	and quickly delivered for optimal styling results,
	unlike other irons which lose heat during use.
	This provides consistent styling power so that
	every strand of your hair is set with the same
	level of heat and comes out the same way for
	a perfect finish.
