Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Cleaning
Make sure the unit is unplugged and cool.
Use a damp cloth to clean the plates and
the outside of the power handle. No other
maintenance of the unit is required.
Storage
Unplug the unit whenever it is not in use.
Allow it to cool, then store it out of reach of
children in a safe, dry location.
Never wrap the cord around the appliance,
since this will cause the cord to wear
prematurely and break, thus voiding war-
ranty. Handle the cord carefully and avoid
jerking, twisting, or straining it, especially
at plug connections.
Error Messages
rE
Your straightener will display an “rE” mes-
sage if it has a recoverable error or mal-
function. If this happens, turn the unit off,
unplug it, and allow it to cool for 10 –15
minutes. Then plug it in and turn it on again.
If the message displays again, refer to the
full 2-year warranty for return instructions.
1E, 2E, 3E
If the LCD displays a “1E”, “2E” or “3E”
message, turn the unit off and unplug it. Do
not attempt to use it. Refer to the full 2-year
warranty for return instructions.
6. Hold the styler vertically and starting at
the roots, clamp hair between the
plates and run the styler out along the
entire hair strand
pulling the styler
away from the face and toward the
back of the head.
Do not hold the
styler in one area.
7.
Repeatedly run the unit smoothly along
the entire strand in a front to back
motion until hair is fully dried. Repeat
with all sections of your hair, working
with the underneath layers first, then
the top and sides.
(NOTE: The unit may
make a steaming/hissing noise
when used on damp hair. This is
okay! The unique design of this
styler will channel the moisture away
from hair and out the steam vents.)
8.
When you are finished styling, press
and hold the ON/OFF button to turn the
unit off, unplug it, and allow it to cool
before storing.
Usage Tips
Styling Your Hair
1.
Gently towel dry hair to remove excess
water. Avoid rubbing hair with a towel,
as this creates split ends and frizziness.
Detangle hair with a wide-toothed comb.
2.
Plug the styler into an electrical outlet.
Press and hold the ON/OFF button until
the unit turns on and the LCD lights up.
3.
The styler will initially heat to setting
15. Adjust the temperature using the
+/- buttons. The bars on the LCD will
flash while the unit heats up, then glow
steadily when it has reached the
selected temperature. The styler will
beep three times when it is ready for use.
4.
Test the styler on a small section of hair,
then adjust the temperature up or down
before styling the rest of your hair.
NOTE:
■
If you find that you need a higher
setting while styling your hair, simply
adjust the temperature by pressing
the "+" button. The unit will beep
when it reaches the new tempera-
ture.
■
While styling your hair, if you find
that you need a lower setting, adjust
the temperature by pressing the "-"
button. Because the unit is already
hot, it may take a few minutes to
cool off. It will beep when it cools
to the lower temperature.
5.
Divide hair into vertical sections, parting
the hair from the top of the head down
to the chin. Take a section of hair and
comb through it. Pull out and away from
your scalp, and hold it taut.
