Using the appliance

Curlers are powerful styling tools and must always be used with care. As with all curlers that reach salon high temperatures, do not use the appliance frequently to avoid damage to the hair. If you use the curler incorrectly or if you use it at the wrong temperature setting, you could overheat your hair or even burn it.

As soon as the appliance has heated up to this setting, the word 'READY' appears on the display.

Never leave the appliance unattended when it is plugged in. Always put the appliance on a heat-resistant surface when it is heating up and when it is hot.

3 Select a temperature setting that is suitable for your hair type.

• Always select a low setting when you use the curler for the first time.
• For thick or coarse hair, select a medium to high setting (170 and up).
