USEFUL TIPS

A quick understanding of how to use the product will allow you to establish the exact application time to achieve the desired effect on your hair.

• Ensure your hair is dry, clean and without any trace of hairspray, hair mousse or gel.
• Comb your hair ensuring there are no knots.
• Ensure you have removed any object from the face area to prevent accidental entanglements while making the curls (such as earrings, necklaces etc.)
• When using the appliance, while it is heating or cooling, place it on a smooth and heat resistant surface.
• While styling your hair, be careful not to bring the product too close to sensitive parts of the face, ears, neck or skin.
• Let the appliance cool down completely when finished using before putting it away.

ATTENTION! If the product remains entangled in your hair, press the button in the opposite rotation direction and extract it downwards. The hair will disentangle thanks to this motion.

ATTENTION! The product's cylinder will turn very hot within few seconds after switching on and must not therefore be put in contact with the skin or eyes after switching on. After having finished using the product, make sure it has completely cooled down before putting it away. Never wrap the power cable around the appliance

USE

PREPARING YOUR HAIR

• Wash hair as normal and comb to remove knots.
• Dry your hair and comb from the roots to the ends.

STYLING SUGGESTIONS

The combination of styling time, temperature and size of the lock of hair makes it possible to achieve different results of curly styling. This will be all the more clearly sculpted the smaller the lock and the higher the temperature.

For an even more clearly marked effect keep the lock in for even longer than indicated by the beep. If you wish a softer effect work with bigger locks of hair at a lower temperature. For a delicate effect extract the lock of hair before the beep.

In any case, the experience gradually gained in using the appliance will help you establish the styling time for your type of hair in order to achieve the desired effect. The product makes it possible to select the winding direction according to the desired curl direction.

To maintain the result obtained do not brush or comb your hair before it has cooled.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

1. Connect the plug to the mains.

2. Set the desired temperature level by means of the operation button (6):

3. 190^ C to obtain soft waves

4. 220^ to obtain more clearly defined wavy hair

5. The LED indicator (4) will turn red and it will beep on powering on. The LED indicator (4) will turn blue and it will beep again when the stylist has reached the selected temperature.

6. Position the product parallel to the lock of hair or slightly tilted. (Image 1). Do not position the product horizontally.

7. Take a lock of hair between your fingers as wide as you wish, move it close to the barrel (2) and insert it between the barrel (2) and the internal support (3A) (Image 1).
8. Press the rotation button in the desired direction: the Automatic Rotating Curl support (3) rotates and winds the lock of hair around the barrel (2) (Image 2)
9. Hold the button down until the lock is completely wound around the barrel (Image 2A) and in any case longer than 3 seconds to allow the styling time buzzer to operate properly.
10. Hold the appliance in position and wait for the buzzer; extract the appliance downwards while holding it vertical. Do not tilt it diagonally (Image 3).
11. Repeat these steps on various locks of hair until achieving the desired styling. Once the hair styling operation is completed, switch off the appliance from the operation button (6) and disconnect it from the power socket.
12. For cooling, place the appliance in a dry and safe place on a heat-resistant surface. Keep out of the reach of children.

Notes:

- Steam may be emitted while the appliance is used; this is excess humidity in the hair that evaporates.

• Do not wind the cord around the appliance as this might cause it to wear prematurely and break. Handle the cord with care avoiding to bend it or pull it especially when it is plugged in the socket.
• The appliance is equipped with self-switch-off function after not being used for 60 minutes. To reactivate the product switch it off and on again with the operation button (6).

CLEANING

This product does not require maintenance. It does not need to be lubricated. Maintain the outer surfaces clean and free from dust, dirt and hairspray. Should the appliance need to be cleaned, unplug it from the socket and rub the outer part with a damp cloth. If the cord twists, rotate it in the opposite direction prior to use.

WARNING: Should any product malfunction occur, do not attempt repairing it by yourself as it does not feature any parts that may be operated by the consumer.

Make sure all cleaned parts are completely dry before reusing the appliance.

DISPOSAL

The user must therefore take the appliance to an appropriate recycling centre for electrical and electronic equipment.

Alternatively, instead of handling the disposal, the appliance can be handed over to the retailer when a new, equivalent appliance is purchased.

Retailers of electronic products having a sales area of at least 400 m2 can also be handed electronic products that are to be disposed of measuring less than 25 cm, free of charge and with no obligation to buy. Appropriate separate collection for the subsequent procedure for the decommissioned appliance for recycling, which includes treatment and environmentally friendly disposal helps prevent adverse effects on the environment and health and promotes reusing and/or recycling materials that the appliance consists of.
