OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
This curling appliance is intended for house-
hold use. Use on Alternating Current (50/60Hz)
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 curling iron has dual voltage. It will
automatically adjust to the proper voltage. Use an
adapter plug with correct configuration, prior to
use in outlet.
GETTING STARTED
The iron’s 40 temperature settings and Instant
Heat technology provide styling versatility for all
hair types. If you have fine hair, a low tempera-
ture will provide the best results. If you have thick,
wavy or hard-to-curl hair, keep the heat setting on
high. You can vary the iron’s temperature accord-
ing to your particular need!
SUPER STYLING GUIDE
Your best looks begin with a good haircut that’s
well maintained. Always treat hair right with
superior quality shampoos, conditioners, and
finishing products.
USING INSTANT HEAT & THE 40
VARIABLE TEMPERATURE SETTINGS &
HEAT RECOVERY SYSTEM
This styling iron features Conair’s Instant Heat
technology. It quickly heats up to a stabilized
temperature and is ready to use.
This Instant Heat technology includes 40
variable temperature settings. Every type of
hair, from the finest to the curliest and most
resistant, has a temperature range that’s
gentle and safe, to help you create the look
you want.
And that’s not all. Conair’s professional salon stan-
dards of engineering provide you with a Uniform
Heat Recovery System that maintains the iron at
constant temperatures.
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 recovery system
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.

CURLING BASICS
1. Plug the curling iron cord into a standard
household electrical outlet (125/250V).
The indicator light will stop blinking and
remain on when the iron is ready to use.
Never leave your curling iron on and
unattended. However, should you fail to turn
the iron off, it will shut itself off automatically in
approximately 60 minutes.
2. Section dry hair evenly, and comb each sec-
tion before winding. Pressing the automatic curl
release, place curling iron midway up the hair
section, then spread hair evenly between spoon
and barrel. Release automatic 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 making a curl you want rolled under;
place the spoon under the hair strand when mak-
ing 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, boun-
cier curls, roll less hair. For looser, free flowing
curls, roll more hair.
4. To remove curling iron, unwind the hair and
press the automatic curl release. To “set” the curl,
do not comb or brush hair until it cools.
