• For additional protection, the installation of a residual current device (RCD) having a rated residual operating current not exceeding 30 mA is advisable in the electrical circuit supplying the bathroom*.

* Currently, the fitting in a bathroom of an electrical socket suitable or capable of operating the appliance is not permitted in the UK (see BS7671).

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

• For extra protection use a heat protection spray.
• Hairsprays contain flammable material - do not use while using this product.
  • Section the hair prior to styling. Style the lower layers first.

• Note: The supplied pouch/mat/sleeve will not fully protect the underlying surface from the heat given off by the appliance when it is being used. Therefore, always make sure that the surface you place the mat/pouch/sleeve on will not be damaged by heat.
