USING THE APPARATUS

This apparatus has several temperature settings and is specially designed for use with damp hair. The channels in the ceramic plates drain water from the hair, and allows it to evaporate through the steam apertures

(8). Naturally, it is also suitable for use on dry hair.

2.Place the apparatus on a flat, heat- resistant surface, and plug it in.

3.Switch on by pushing the on/off switch (4) towards the white symbol (to left).

o The five temperature indicator lights (6) will flash once.

4.Press the temperature setting button (5) repeatedly according to the temperature you want (see table below).

o The corresponding temperature indicator light(s) will flash.

The lights will stop blinking

as the apparatus reaches each temperature level.

5.Switch off by pushing the on/off button downwards to the black symbol (on right).

Styling tips

Brush hair thoroughly before setting. Divide your hair up into small sections, and deal with them separately piece by piece as described below until the desired result is achieved. Hair should be clean before using the appliance. Damp hair gives the best result. Do not use on very wet hair.

Flat, smooth hair:

oStart with a lock of hair about 5 cm wide and close the flat tong’s ceramic plates around the hair near the scalp.

oSlowly slide the apparatus towards the hair ends in a fluent movement.

Keep the hair tight to avoid kinks. For more lift in the hair, smooth only the outer part of the hair lock.

Hair with a flick:

oStart with a lock of hair about 5 cm wide and close the flat tong’s ceramic plates around the hair

near the scalp.

oSlide the apparatus slowly towards the hair ends.

oFinish by curling the last piece of hair a little out at the ends.

Hair with a curl:

oStart with a lock of hair about 5 cm wide and close the flat tong’s

ceramic plates around the hair near the scalp.

o Slide the apparatus slowly towards the hair ends.

oFinish by curling the last piece of hair under at the ends.

CLEANING

Remove the plug from the socket before cleaning.

Allow to cool down before cleaning.

Do not use strong or abrasive cleaning agents, solvents or similar to clean the apparatus, as these may scratch or damage the external surfaces and the ceramic plates.

Wipe it with a well-wrung soft cloth.

Never submerge the apparatus in water, and no water must be allowed to get into it.
