INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
This straightening and curling iron appliance
is intended for household 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 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 auto-
matically 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
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 temperature according
to your particular need!
To achieve faster styling results, we have
added a unique optional Turbo Heat
™
on/off
feature. Press the Turbo button to deliver up to
20°C/68°F more heat in the highest setting,
for maximum styling performance.
To begin, plug the curling iron cord into
any household outlet (120/240V). Press the
ON/OFF button and the red indicator light will
blink. When ready to use, the red indicator
light will remain on. Press the turbo button
and the green indicator light will come on.
Press ON/OFF button again and the red and
green lights will go off. Never leave you
curling iron on and unattended. However,
should you fail to turn the iron off, it will shut
itself off automatically within 60 minutes.
STRAIGHTENING WITH THE NEW INSTANT
HEAT 2-IN-1 SPLIT BARREL PLATES
The plates of your new iron have an extra-
smooth surface, for maximum straightening
performance.
You'll find that hair glides easily over the sur-
face of the plates as you’re straightening and
it's simpler to clean off styling product residue
after each use.
The ceramic surface also helps smooth down
flyaways and frizzies. As you smooth each
strand, heat is evenly distributed so that the
style you create has a salon-perfect, silky
smooth, shining finish. Hair slips right off the
plates after it’s straightened.
The ceramic technology makes styling your hair
easier and the results more professional.
STRAIGHTENING BASICS
1. Be sure locking mechanism on cool tip is
released to open barrel for straightening.
2. Section hair evenly and comb each section.
3. Place hair section between plates and press
together.
4. Slowly guide plates down hair strand.
Repeat as necessary until hair strand is
smooth.
CURLING WITH THE EASY-GLIDE
CERAMIC-COATED BARREL
The barrel of your new iron has a Easy-
Glide
™
ceramic-coated surface.
The ceramic-coated surface also helps
smooth down flyaways and frizzies while
curling. As you wind each strand around the
barrel, it evenly distributes heat so that the
style you create has a salon-perfect, silky
smooth, shining 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 auto-
matic curl release, place curling iron midway
up the hair section, then spread hair evenly
between spoon and barrel. Release automat-
ic 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 mak-
ing 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.
