When using electrical appliances, especially

tions should always be followed, including the

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

5. If an appliance falls into water, unplug it im-
mediately.
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 unat-
tended when plugged in.
2. This appliance should not be used by,

certain disabilities.
3. Use this appliance only for its intended use

4. Do not use an extension cord to operate

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 dam-
aged, 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 couch, where the air openings may be
blocked. Keep the air openings free of lint,
hair, and the like.
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

let eyes or bare skin touch heated surfac-
es.
13. Do not place the heated straightener di-
rectly on any surface or on the appliance
power cord while it is hot or plugged in.
14. Before plugging in read the information about
dual voltage contained in the instruction
section of this manual.
15. Do not attempt to touch the housing of your
appliance near the straightening plates as
it is hot when in use.

INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
This straightening iron is intended for house-
hold 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 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
household outlet 120V-240V. Slide switch to
ON position. Red LED light will indicate power
is on. The iron will heat up very quickly. To turn
off, slide to OFF position. Red light will go off.
Never leave your straightening iron on and
unattended.
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 1" wide and no
more than ½" 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 maintain-
ing 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.
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 looking 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 glides right through the
plates after it’s straightened.
The new ceramic technology is a pleasure to
work with, makes styling your hair easier and
provides professional results.
