1. Position yourself on a dry, non-conductive surface. Make sure that your hands are dry!

5. Briefly hold down the ON/OFF button 6 to switch on the device.
6. Use the temperature switch 4 and 5 to set your desired temperature. The current set temperature setting is shown in the LED display 3. You can use the temperature switch 4 and 5 to increase or decrease the temperature in steps of 20. We recommend the following temperature settings:

100 °C to 140 °C	for fine, brittle, coloured or bleached hair
