Operation
● Plug in the appliance and place on a
level, heat-resistant surface.
● To switch on, hold down the on/off switch
1 for about 1 second.
The preset temperature (140 °C) lights up
on the display 3.
● The desired temperature can now be set
using the temperature selector 2 at inter-
vals of 10 between 120 °C and 200 °C.
– Up to 140 °C for fine, delicate hair
– Approx. 180 °C for normal hair
– 180 °C or higher for thick or wavy hair.
Tip: Reduce the temperature for dam-
aged hair (the ideal temperature is approx.
140 °C) to protect it.
The appliance heats up, the preset
tempera ture flashes in the display.
The appliance is ready for use when the
preset temperature is illuminated and no
longer flashing.
Note: To switch off, hold down the on/off
switch 1 for about 1 second.
Use
[
Risk of burns!
Never allow appliance to come into contact
with skin (scalp or ears).
● Only use the appliance on dry hair.
● Use only on untreated, healthy hair.
● Use less frequently on permed, coloured
or affected hair.
Note: Fine hair responds very quickly to the
treatment. The even heat emission is espe-
cially gentle on the hair.
● Comb the hair and section it into even
strands (about 2-3 cm wide). The finer the
strands, the tighter the curl, as all the hair
comes into contact with the heated curl-
ing tongs.
● Open the curling tongs by pressing the
clip 5.
● Insert a strand of hair and close the clip.
Figure a
● Now pull the curling tongs down to the
ends of the hair and turn to wind up the
strand. Figure b
Important: If you have long hair, use the
entire surface of the heated barrel. This
spreads the heat evenly through the hair
and delivers better styling results.
● Leave the curling tongs in the hair for a
few seconds to shape the curl.
● Release the strand of hair by opening the
clip with small movements while removing
the curling iron sideways from the hair
strand.
N.B.: Make sure that the curl is not pulled
straight when removing the curling tongs.
For longer lasting curls, use a hair clip to
hold the curl in place while it is still rolled up.
