GENERAL WARNINGS

1. After unpacking, make sure that the appliance is intact with no signs of damage caused by transport. Should you have any doubts, do not use the appliance and take it to an authorised IMETEC Service Centre.
2. The packaging is not a toy! If present, keep the plastic bag out of the reach of children (risk of suffocation).
3. Before connecting the appliance, check that the rating plate specifications correspond to the electrical mains supply. The plate is on the appliance.
4. Do not use adapters, multiple sockets and/or extension cords. If the appliance's plug and the socket are incompatible, have the socket replaced with a suitable type by qualified staff.
5. This appliance must only be used for the purpose for which it has been designed, that is, as a hair straightener. Any other use is to be considered improper and therefore dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any damage due to improper or incorrect use.
6. For extra protection, you are advised to install a differential circuit breaker with a nominal operating differential current of max. 30 mA in the electric circuit of the bathroom. Ask the installer for advice about this.
7. The use of any electric appliance implies the observance of some fundamental rules. Specifically:
8. never touch the appliance with hands or feet that are wet or damp;
9. do not use the appliance with bare feet;
10. do not tug the power cord or the appliance in order to pull the plug out of the socket;
11. do not leave the appliance exposed to the weather (rain, sun, etc.);
12. do not let children play with the appliance.
13. Do not let anyone (including children) who is unable to operate the appliance safely (due to a mental, physical or sensory handicap, inexperience or incompetence) use this appliance unless under strict supervision or with the help of a responsible person.

14. When using the appliance in the bathroom, disconnect it from the mains after use, since leaving it near water can be hazardous even when it is switched off.

15. Before cleaning or servicing the appliance, disconnect it from the mains by pulling out the plug.

16. Should the appliance break down and/or not work properly, turn it off and do not tamper with it. If it needs repairing, take it to an authorised IMETEC Service Centre.
17. Do not attempt to replace the power cord. If it is damaged or needs replacing, contact an authorised IMETEC Service Centre.
18. To avoid dangerous overheating, we recommend unwinding the power cord completely during use and disconnecting the plug from the socket when the appliance is not in use.
19. Use a dry cloth to clean the appliance.
20. Never use hair sprays while the appliance is working.
21. Should you decide not to use the appliance any more, we suggest making it inoperative by cutting the power cord after removing the plug from the socket. We also recommend making all potentially dangerous parts of the appliance harmless, particularly for children who might be tempted to play with it.

Warning:

• Never immerse the appliance in water.
• Do not use the appliance next to baths, sinks or containers filled with water.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

USEFUL ADVICE

Quickly gained experience in using your hair straightener will help you determine exactly how long to set the hair for the effect you want.

• Each time you use your straightener make sure that your hair is perfectly dry, clean and free from all traces of hairspray, mousse or gel;
• Use the temperature control system to heat the straightener to the temperature which is suitable for your hair. We suggest using a low temperature on fine hair and high temperatures on thick hair that is difficult to straighten;
• Start styling from the back of the neck, then on the sides and end with the forehead.
• When using the hair straightener and during the heating up and cooling down phases, place it on a smooth and heat-resistant surface;
• While styling, take care not to bring the straightener too close to sensitive areas of the face, the ears, the neck or the skin;
• After use, let the hair straightener cool down completely before putting it away.

Warning:

When you have finished using the hair straightener, make sure it has cooled down completely before putting it away.

PREPARING THE HAIR

• Wash the hair as usual and brush out any tangles.
• Dry the hair, brushing it from the roots to the tips.

TEMPERATURE REGULATION

Your hair straightener comes with an electronic temperature regulator. This allows you to regulate the temperature of the plates to two different levels (200° and 220°C) according to your hair type.

Warning:

Please refer to the technical specifications on the box for more information on your hair straightener.

OPERATION

• Plug in the hair straightener; set switch ④ to position 1 and let it heat up.

• A red light ⑤ comes on to indicate that the appliance is switched on; set the right temperature by turning the switch to position 1 (200°C) or to position 2 (220°C).

• Take a thin and limp lock of hair between your fingers and place it between the two plates;

• Hold the lock taut with one hand, close the straightener and slide it down from the roots to the ends with the other hand,
• When you have finished styling, switch off the appliance by moving button ④ to position '0' and unplug the appliance;

Warning:

Never wind the power cord around the appliance; Please note:

While you are using the appliance, you may notice some steam coming out, which is excess moisture in the hair that soon evaporates.

THE LOOKS YOU CAN ACHIEVE

Straight look [Fig. A]

Insert a thin and limp lock of hair into the plates and starting from the root, slide the straightener down to the ends.

Curly look [Fig. B]

Take a small lock of hair and insert it in the hair straightener, horizontal to the lock. Roll the lock around the hair straightener.

Turn the hair straightener 360^ rolling hair around it until the lower part of the lock is facing outwards.

Slowly slide the hair straightener down, holding the hair taut with your other hand. Do not excessively pull on the hair straightener or it will not slide. Do not hold hair too taut either.

After releasing the hair, follow the movement of the curl with your hand.

Flick look (flicked up ends) [Fig. C]

Insert a thin and limp lock of hair into the plates and starting from the roots slide the straightener down. When you get near the ends, lift the straightener upwards and outwards until the lock of hair is released.

CLEANING

Only clean the plates ① and the handle ⑥ with a soft, damp cloth:

• unplug the appliance;
• check that the plates are cool;
• clean the surface and leave to dry.
