risk of death by electric shock:
1. Always unplug appliance immediately after
using.
2. Do not use while bathing or in a shower.
3. Do not place or store appliance where it can
fall or be pulled into a tub or sink.
4. Do not place in, or drop into water or other
liquid.
5. If an appliance falls into water, unplug it
immediately.
Do not reach into the water.
WARNING -
To reduce the risk of burns,
electrocution, fire, or injury to persons:
1. This appliance should never be left
unattended when plugged in.
2. This appliance should not be used by,

disabilities.
3. Use this appliance only for its intended use
as described in this manual. Do not use attach-
ments not recommended by the manufacturer.
4. Do not use an extension cord to operate
appliance.
5. Never operate this appliance if it has a
damaged cord or plug, if it is not working
properly, if it has been dropped or damaged,
or dropped into water. Return the appliance
to an authorized service centre for
examination and repair.
6. Keep the cord away from heated surfaces.
7. Do not pull, twist, or wrap line cord around
appliance, even during storage.
8. Never block the air openings of the appliance
or place it on a soft surface such as a bed or a
couch, where the air openings may be blocked.
Keep the air openings free of lint, hair and
other debris.
9. Never use while sleeping.
10. Never drop or insert any object into any
opening.
11. Do not use outdoors or operate where aero-
sol (spray) products are being used or where
oxygen is being administered.
12. This straightener is hot when in use. Do not
let eyes or bare skin touch heated surfaces.
13. Do not place the heated straightener
directly on any surface or on the appliance
power cord while it is hot or plugged in.
14. Do not touch hot surfaces of the appliance;
use handles or knobs.
15. Do not attempt to touch the housing of your

SAVE THESE
INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
This straightening iron is intended for house-
hold 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 iron will automatically adjust
to the proper voltage. Use an adapter plug with
correct configuration, prior to use in outlet.
STRAIGHTENING BASICS
Plug the straightening iron cord into any house-
hold outlet (120/250V). Press ON button. Red
and green lights will blink alternately. When ready
to use, green light will remain on and red light
will turn off. The iron will heat up very quickly.
To turn off, press OFF button. Green light will
go off. Red light will remain on as a safety
precaution to indicate the iron is still plugged
in. 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 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.
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. Close plates over hair 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 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 the
iron several times, you will learn the ideal way
to straighten and style your hair easily.
NOTE:
Please refer to the temperature setting
guide for heat settings.
STYLING WITH THE NEW EASY-GLIDE
CERAMIC-COATED PLATES
The plates of your new straightening iron have
an easy-glide ceramic surface, the latest in
technological advances. The ceramic even heat
distribution produces the ultimate in healthy,
shiny, silky hair. You’ll find that hair glides
easily over the surface of the plates as you’re
straightening, and that it is easier to clean
styling products residue, etc. off the plates
after each use. The ceramic surface also helps
smooth down flyways and frizzies. As you smooth
your hair, heat is evenly distributed so that the
style you create has a salon-perfect, silky smooth,
shiny finish. Hair also slips right through the
plates after it’s straightened.
And that’s not all. Conair’s professional salon
standards of engineering provide you with a
Uniform Heat Recovery System to maintain the
straightening iron at a constant temperature.
A constant surge of power ensures that heat is
continuously delivered for optimal styling results,
unlike other units that lose heat during use. It
provides consistent styling power so that every
strand of hair is set with the same level of heat
for uniform results and a perfect finish.
The new ceramic technology is a pleasure to
work with, makes styling your hair easier and
provides professional results.
USING INSTANT HEAT, THE 30
TEMPERATURE SETTINGS & UNIFORM HEAT
RECOVERY SYSTEM
This straightening iron features Conair’s Instant
Heat technology so it quickly heats up to
the temperature you’ve selected for your
hair type.
There are 30 temperature settings to choose
from, so you can adjust the temperature for
every type of hair, from the finest to the curliest
and most resistant.
