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.
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 indicator
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 3 temperature settings and
Instant Heat technology combine to 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-straighten 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 (125/250V, red light to go on). Press
ON button. The iron will heat up very quickly. The
red indicator light will stop blinking and remain
on when the iron is ready to use. To turn off, press
OFF button (red light 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 72 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 firmly
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-
drying 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 sev-
eral times, you will learn the ideal way to straight-
en and style your hair easily.
STYLING WITH EASY-GLIDE TITANIUMTOUR-
MALINE CERAMIC COATED PLATES
The plates of this premium straightening iron are
coated with a combination of the best materials
for styling. A fusion of titanium, tourmaline and
ceramic evenly distributes heat to gently style
and protect hair from damaging hot spots. When
heated, tourmaline naturally emits clouds of
negatively charged ions that eliminate flyaways
and frizzies and leave hair silky smooth and
shiny.
Hair glides easily over the surface of these ultra
smooth plates. As you straighten each strand,
you’ll achieve a salon-perfect finish. Plates are
exceptionally easy to clean, and you’ll discover
this combination of technologies leaves your hair
silky smooth.
USING INSTANT HEAT, THE 3 HIGH HEAT
TEMPERATURE SETTINGS AND UNIFORM
HEAT RECOVERY SYSTEM
This straightening iron features Conair’s Instant Heat
technology.
Within this Instant Heat technology there are 3
temperature settings for every type of hair, from the
finest to the curliest and most resistant. Select the
temperature range that’s suitable for your hair type
to help you create the look you want. And that’s not
all. Conair’s professional salon standards of engi-
neering provide you with a Uniform 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
that every strand of your hair is set with the same
level of heat and comes out the same way for a
perfect finish.
REMOVABLE SILICONE DEEP SHINE
ATTACHMENT
Your straightening iron includes a removable
silicone deep shine attachment. This attachment
will help to provide tension and guide your hair
as you use the straightening iron. It also eliminates
any gaps, creating silky, smooth strands with
extra shine. To remove or attach the silicone strip,
turn unit off and allow unit to cool. Hold unit
firmly with one hand; with your other hand, slide
silicone strip away from the iron to detach it.
When attaching the silicone strip, align it with the
slot on the side of the iron and slide silicone strip
into position. Make sure the silicone strip se-
curely locks into position.
