OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
This straightening iron is intended for house-
hold 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 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/Low 285
º
F and Ion On settings will
become illuminated.
To turn off, press Off button (lights will go off).
Never leave your straightening iron on and
unattended. However, should you fail to turn
the unit off it will shut itself off automatically
within 60 minutes.
WARNING: The straightening iron's nano
silver tourmaline ceramic-coated 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.
STYLING WITH THE NANO SILVER
TOURMALINE CERAMIC
™
COATED PLATES
Your new straightening iron features nano
technology – micro particles that create
stronger bonds to plate surfaces, for smoother
glide, maximum manageability and more
professional results.
NANO SILVER TECHNOLOGY
combines the
technology of micro particles of ceramic
and silver for clean, beautiful, healthy
looking results.
The Nano Silver Tourmaline Ceramic™
Technology combines all that is best for your
hair. Nano silver’s unique properties leave
hair cleaner, shinier and healthier looking.
Tourmaline emits infrared heat for gentle styl-
ing, and natural ions that reduce frizz, help
smooth down flyaways and renew the vitality
of your hair. And ceramic generates gentle
infrared energy and evenly distributes heat to
protect hair from damage. Whatever style you
create, this trio of technologies leaves your
hair with a salon-perfect, silky smooth finish.
USING INSTANT HEAT, THE 5 ULTRA-
HIGH HEAT TEMPERATURE SETTINGS
& UNIFORM HEAT RECOVERY SYSTEM
This styling iron features a ceramic heater
that maintains high temperatures during use
for precision styling. It heats up quickly to the
temperature you’ve selected for your hair type.
This Instant Heat technology has 5 ultra-high
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, and helps 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 constant
temperatures. There is a constant surge of
power to ensure that heat is continuously and
quickly delivered for optimal styling results,
unlike other units, 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.
THE IONIZING FUNCTION
generates a cloud of
negative ions that can:
• neutralize the generally positive charge on
flyaway, frizzy hair
• eliminate static electricity
• contribute to shine
The new Nano Silver Tourmaline Ceramic™
Technology makes this straightener a pleasure
to use – styling has never been easier! Get
ready to experience salon results without
the salon!
INSTANT HEAT TECHNOLOGY
The iron’s unique high temperature settings and
Instant Heat technology provide styling versatil-
ity 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-straighten hair,
keep the heat setting on high. You can vary the
iron’s temperature according to your particular
need by scrolling the
temperature settings using the +/– buttons.
For best results, use a light styling product
before blow-drying hair. Start with a hair
section that is 1 ½" wide and no more than
½" 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 section toward the end
of 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.
As you straighten your hair, you’ll find that
it glides more easily over the micro-bonded
plate surfaces, and any residue from styling
products is easy to remove.
Some experience is necessary when learning
to use this straightening iron. After using the
iron several times, you will learn the ideal
way to straighten and style your hair.
