INSTRUCTIONS

OPERATING

INSTRUCTIONS

This straightening iron is intended for house-
hold use. This unit is designed to operate at 
120/240 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 fi t in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug 
does not fi t fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If 
it still does not fi t, contact a qualifi ed electrician. 
Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.

DUAL VOLTAGE

This straightening iron will automatically adjust 
to the proper voltage. Use an adapter plug with 
correct confi guration, prior to use in outlet.

TO STRAIGHTEN HAIR

Hair should be clean and completely dried before 
using the straightening iron. Plug the iron into an 
electrical outlet. Turn on unit. The power indica-
tor light should become illuminated. Allow unit 
to heat up for several minutes. 

WARNING: The straightening iron’s plates will 
get very hot within a few seconds and should 
not be placed in contact with the skin after 
the straightening iron has been turned on. 

GETTING STARTED

The straightening iron’s 25 temperature settings 
and Instant Heat technology combine to provide 
styling versatility for all hair textures. If you have 
fi ne hair, a low temperature will provide the best 
results. If you have thick, wavy or hard-to-straight-
en hair, keep the heat setting high. You can vary 
the straightening iron’s temperature according 
to your particular need!

STRAIGHTENING BASICS

1. Plug the straightening iron cord into any house-
hold outlet (120/240V, red light to go on). Press 
ON button. The iron will heat up very quickly. The 
green indicator light will stop blinking and remain 
on when the iron is ready to use. To turn off, press 
OFF button (green light will go off). Never leave 
your straightening iron on and unattended.  

How-

ever, should you fail to turn the unit off, it will 
shut itself off automatically within 60 minutes.
2. Start with a hair section that is 2” wide and no 
more than 1/2” thick. Open the iron and place a 
hair section between the two hot plates, close to 
the scalp. Trap hair between the plates by fi rmly 
squeezing the handles together. While maintain-
ing the tension, slowly pull the unit down along 
the hair section toward the end of hair. For best 

results, use a light styling lotion before blow-dry-
ing hair. At the end of hair section, release the 
pressure on the handle and allow the hair section 
to slide out. Repeat process on additional 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.
Some experience is necessary when learning to 
use this straightening iron. After using iron several 
times, you will learn the ideal way to straighten and 
style your hair easily. 

STYLING WITH THE EASY-GLIDE 

CERAMIC-COATED PLATES

The plates of your new straightening iron have 
an Easy-Glide ceramic-coated surface, the new-
est technology. 
Hair glides easily over the surface of the plates 
as you’re straightening. The ceramic-coated 
surface also helps smooth down fl yaways and 
frizzies. As you smooth each strand, heat is 
evenly distributed so that the style you create 
has a salon-perfect, silky smooth, shining fi nish. 
Hair slips right off the plates after it’s straightened, 
and the ceramic surface is easy to clean.
The new ceramic technology is a pleasure to 
work with because it makes styling your hair 

easier and the results more professional.

USING INSTANT HEAT, THE 25 VARIABLE 

TEMPERATURE SETTINGS AND UNIFORM 

HEAT RECOVERY SYSTEM 

This straightening iron features Conair’s Instant 
Heat technology. 
Within this Instant Heat technology there are 25 
variable temperature settings for every type of 
hair, from the fi nest to the curliest and most re-

sistant. Select the temperature range that’s suit-
able for your hair type to help you create the look 
you want. 
And that’s not all. Conair’s professional salon 
standards of engineering provide you with a Uni-
form Heat Recovery System that maintains the 
straightening iron at a 
constant temperature. 
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 provides consistent styling power so

unit fi rmly with one hand; with your other hand, 
slide comb away from the iron to detach it. When 
attaching the comb, align it with the slot on the
