Only use on dry hair; under no circumstances use the appliance on artificial hair. Place the appliance on heat- resistant surfaces only. Avoid any skin contact. Do not use near water contained in bath tubs, sinks or other containers. Risk of fatal injury! Never allow the appliance to come into contact with water. Even an appliance that has been switched off poses a danger; therefore unplug the appliance after every use or when interrupted in its use. Installing a ground fault circuit interrupter up to 30 mA in the house offers additional protection. Please consult an electrician. Risk of suffocation!

The preset temperature (150°C) lights up on the display 3. The desired temperature can now be set using the temperature selector 2 at intervals of 10 between 100°C and 200°C. The appliance heats up, the preset temperature flashes in the display. The appliance is ready for use when the preset temperature is illuminated and no longer flashing. Recommended temperatures for especially gentle straightening and shine: Hair type Structure Recommended temperature frizzy healthy 180°C curly healthy 180°C wavy healthy 160°C frizzy damaged 160°C curly damaged 160°C wavy damaged 150°C frizzy unhealthy 140°C curly unhealthy 140°C wavy unhealthy 140°C This information was calculated under laboratory conditions: settings for your own hair may vary. Colour saving: Colour protection and longer-lasting colour only at temperatures < 180°C and at the recommended temperatures stated above. USE Risk of burns! Never allow appliance to come into contact with skin (scalp or ears). You can use the hair straightener to straighten or curl your hair. - Only use the appliance on dry hair. Note: Fine hair responds particularly quickly to the treatment with the heating plates. Please note the recommended temperature for your hair type, see “OPERATION”. The even heat emission of the heating plates is especially gentle on the hair. The result is smooth hair with an intensive, silky shine. Important: Never apply in one spot for longer than 2 seconds. Straightening your hair (Figure A) The appliance is suitable for both long and short hair. • Comb the hair and section it into even strands (about 5 cm wide). • Starting from the roots, place a strand of hair between the plates (Figure a). • Press the plates together and pull down gently and evenly toward the ends of the hair (Figure b). • Treat all strands in the same manner. Allow hair to cool completely before styling. Tip: For shoulder-length hair, each strand should take about 10 seconds. Curling your hair (Figures B, C and D) There are three methods for curling hair. In all cases, the hair should be sectioned into even strands about 2 cm wide. The finer the strand, the tighter the curl. Curling with volume in the entire hair • Hold the hair straightener level, place the strand of hair between the heating plates and close them. • Turn the straightener 180° and wrap the strand once around the upper heating plate. • Press the plates firmly together and pull the straightener down to the ends of the hair at a steady pace. • Now open the plates. Curling with volume in the length • Hold the hair straightener level, place the strand of hair between the heating plates and close them. • Turn the straightener 180° and wrap the strand once around the lower heating plate. • Press the plates firmly together and pull the straightener down to the ends of the hair at a steady pace. • Now open the plates. Spiral curls for special hair styles • Hold the hair straightener vertically, place the strand of hair between lower half of the heating plates and close them. • Turn the straightener 180° and wrap the strand once around the free heating plate. • Press the plates firmly together and pull the straightener down tilted to the ends of the hair at a steady pace. • Now open the plates. N.B.: Make sure that the curl is not pulled straight when removing the straightener. Tip for a longer lasting hair style: Roll up the curl when it’s still hot and fix with a hair clip until cool. Warning: The best and most gentle temperature setting depends primarily on the speed at which the appliance is pulled down the hair (the specified values refer to approx. 2 cm/sec.): • For short hair (approx. 10 cm in length), the appliance should be pulled evenly down the strand in approximately 5 seconds. • For shoulder-length hair (approx. 20 cm in length), the appliance should be pulled evenly down the strand in ...
