OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
This straightening and curling iron appliance
is intended for household use. This unit is
designed to operate at 125/250 volts AC. Use on
Alternating Current (50/60 hertz) only.
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.
DUAL VOLTAGE
This straightening and curling iron will
automatically adjust to the proper voltage. Use
an adapter plug with correct configuration, prior
to use in outlet.
GETTING STARTED
Your new iron is a 2-in-1 split barrel iron that
can be used to curl or straighten. The iron’s
25 temperature settings and Instant Heat
60-second heat-up technology combined
provide styling versatility for all hair textures.
If you have fine hair, a low temperature will
provide the best results. If you have thick, wavy
or hard-to-curl or straighten hair, keep the heat
setting high. You can vary the iron’s tempera-
ture according to your particular need!
To begin, plug the iron cord into any house-
hold outlet (125/250V). Press the ON
button. The iron will heat up very quick-
ly. To turn off, press the OFF button (light
will go off). Never leave your iron on and
unattended.
create has a salon-perfect, silky smooth, shin-
ing finish. Hair slips right off the barrel after
it’s curled as well.
The ceramic technology is a pleasure to work
with and makes styling your hair easier and
the results more professional.
CURLING BASICS
1. Be sure the locking mechanism on cool tip is
locked to keep barrel closed while curling.
2. Section dry hair evenly, and comb each
section before winding. Pressing the automatic
curl release, place curling iron midway up the
hair section, then spread hair evenly between
spoon and barrel. Release automatic curl
release to hold hair in place. Gently slide
curling iron down to hair ends. To avoid crimped
ends, make sure they are securely wound under
the spoon in the direction of the desired curl.
Remember, always place the spoon above the
hair strand when making a curl you want rolled
under; place the spoon under the hair strand
when making a flip style.
3. Wind the hair up as far as you want it curled,
being careful not to let the iron touch the scalp.
Hold in place for 8-12 seconds depending on
the texture and length of your hair. For tighter,
bouncier curls, roll less hair. For looser, free-
flowing curls, roll more hair.
4. When finished, unwind the hair and press the
automatic curl release. To set the curl, do not
comb or brush through hair until it cools.
USING INSTANT HEAT & THE 25
VARIABLE TEMPERATURE SETTINGS &
HEAT RECOVERy SySTEM
This styling iron features Conair’s Instant Heat
technology. It heats up to the temperature
you’ve selected for your hair type in just
60 seconds and is then ready to use.
This Instant Heat technology includes 25
variable temperature settings. Every type of
hair, from the finest to the curliest and most
resistant, has a temperature range that’s
gentle and safe, 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 Heat Recovery System that maintains
the iron at constant temperatures.
There is a constant surge of power to ensure
that heat is continuously delivered for optimal
styling results, unlike other units which
lose heat during use. This recovery system
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.
