IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

Warning: When the straightener is used in a bathroom, unplug it after use since the proximity of water presents a hazard even when the straightener is switched off.

When using electrical appliances, especially when children are present, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING

KEEP AWAY FROM WATER

DANGER – As with most electrical appliances, electrical parts are electrically live even when the switch is off.

To reduce the risk of death by electric shock:

• Always unplug it immediately after using.
- Do not place or store an appliance where it can fall or be pulled into a bath or sink.
- Do not use while bathing.
- Do not place or drop into water or other liquid.
- If an appliance falls into water, “unplug it” immediately. Do not reach into the water.

For additional protection, the installation of a residual current device (RCD) with a rated residual operating current not exceeding 30mA is advisable in the electrical circuit supplying the bathroom. Ask your electrical contractor for advice.

WARNING – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF BURNS, ELECTROCUTION, and FIRE, OR INJURY TO PERSONS.

- Your straightener should never be left unattended when plugged in to a power outlet.

- This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Keep the appliance and the power cord away from the edge of table or countertops and out of reach of children and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities.

• This appliance is not a toy. Children shall be supervised to ensure they do not play with the appliance.
• Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in this manual. Do not use attachments not recommended by Remington.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agents or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
• Do not use on people who are asleep.
• Never drop or insert any object into any opening of this appliance.
• Do not use outdoors or where aerosol (spray) products are being used or where oxygen is being administered.
• The plates will be very hot during use. Do not let bare skin touch heated surfaces.
• Do not place the heated straightener on any soft surface such as a bed, carpet or a towel. Place only on a hard, flat, heat resistant surface.

BASIC HAIR CARE INSTRUCTIONS

For optimal results, shampoo and condition your hair prior to straightening, then dry your hair thoroughly and make sure that it is tangle free.

HOW TO USE YOUR REMINGTON® INFINITE PROTECT STRAIGHTENER

Carefully place the straightener on a flat, hard, heat resistant surface ensuring the sides of the plates do not come into contact with the surface. Plug in to any household (120/240V AC) power outlet. Press the power on/off button.

The digital temperature display will flash indicating that the straightener is heating. When the temperature of the plates has reached the temperature selected the LED light will remain steady. Press the “+” temperature increase button to increase the temperature. Press the “-” to decrease the temperature. The

lowest temperature setting is 150^ C, and the highest temperature setting is 230^ C. The straightener will be ready to use in 30 seconds depending on the temperature selected.

Take extra care when using the straightener, as it can get very hot. It is important to establish the correct temperature for your hair type prior to use to prevent damage to your hair. If in doubt, start with a low temperature setting first using the variable temperature button and increase the heat gradually.

NOTE: The Infinite Protect Straightener is not suitable for use on synthetic wigs or hair extensions.

150°C - 170°C Thin/fine, damaged or bleached hair

AUTOMATIC VOLTAGE ADJUSTMENT

The Infinite Protect Straightener features automatic voltage adjustment for international dual voltage (120/240V) use. Plug the unit into any domestic power outlet and it will adjust automatically to the voltage being supplied.

NOTE: Some countries will require the use of a plug adaptor that is not included with your straightener.

TURBO BOOST FUNCTION

This straightener features a turbo boost function which will automatically select the highest temperature of 230^ . To operate the turbo boost function, press and hold the “+” temperature increase button for 2 seconds.

CAUTION: the highest temperature is not suitable for every hair type. If you plan to use this straightener on the boost setting of 230^ C please test on a small section of your hair first.

TEMPERATURE LOCK

This straightener has a temperature lock to prevent the selected temperature from being accidentally altered during use. When the selected temperature has been reached, simply press and hold the “-” temperate decrease button for 2 seconds. This will lock the current heat setting and a padlock icon will appear in the temperature display window. To unlock the temperature lock, simply press and hold the “-” temperate decrease button for 2 seconds.

MEMORY FUNCTION

Each time you use the product it will automatically set itself to the last temperature used.

AUTOMATIC SAFETY SHUT OFF

If the straightener is not used for a period of 60 minutes (temperature is constant) it will automatically shut off.

TO STRAIGHTEN YOUR HAIR

• Ensure your hair is completely dry.
• To make styling easier, part the hair either in the middle or to the side and use clips to section your hair; top, sides and back.
• You may need to comb through your hair before straightening to ensure that it is tangle free.
• Start at the nape of the neck and straighten the underneath sections of hair first. When the underneath sections of hair are complete, move to the next layers, finishing with the hair around the part line.
• Take about a 5cm section of hair and pull taut and down and away from the scalp. Holding the straightener with the other hand, start at the roots and clamp the hair firmly between the plates.
• Firmly holding the plates together, run the straightener down through the entire length of the section of hair from roots to ends, in one smooth stroke.

- Repeat until the desired amount of straightening has been achieved.

MAINTENANCE

This straightener is designed for household use and is virtually maintenance free. If cleaning becomes necessary, disconnect the unit from the power outlet, allow it to cool, and then wipe the exterior surface and the plates with a soft damp cloth. Do not immerse the unit in any liquid. Do not use an abrasive cleaning fluid or material to clean the ceramic coated plates as this will scratch the surface.

STORAGE

When not in use, always unplug the straightener from the power outlet. Allow the straightener to cool and store out of the reach of children in a safe dry place. Never wrap the power cord around the straightener since this will cause the cord to wear prematurely and break. Handle the cord carefully for long life and avoid jerking, twisting or straining especially at the plug connections. If the cord becomes twisted in use, periodically straighten it.

WARNING: Do not use this appliance near bathtubs, showers, basins or other vessels containing water.

As with all electrical appliances, the power cord must be regularly checked for wear and tear. Immediately cease using this product if the power cord shows any signs of damage.

This product conforms to radio frequency interference requirements. Any product purchased and used commercially carries a limited 90 Day Warranty.
