Frequently Asked Questions - Björn Axén Curling Wand Elliptic 3118 OBH NORDICA

What temperature setting should I use for my hair type?

Refer to the temperature recommendations: LOW (120 °C) for thin, fine or coloured hair; MID (160 °C) for normal hair; HIGH (200 °C) for very thick and resilient hair.

How do I create curls with this curling wand?

Ensure hair is completely dry. Take a section of hair, hold the wand near the scalp, and wind the hair evenly around the elliptic heating element. Hold for 5-8 seconds, then release. Adjust section thickness for varied curl volume.

Does the curling wand have an auto-off function?

Yes, it automatically switches off after approximately 60 minutes as a safety feature. Always turn the power button to OFF and unplug after use.

Can I use this product on wet hair?

No, the hair must be completely dry before styling. Using on wet hair can cause damage and increase the risk of electric shock.

How should I clean the curling wand?

Allow the device to cool completely. Wipe the exterior and heating element with a damp cloth, then dry with a soft cloth. Never immerse in water or allow water into the casing.

What safety precautions should I take?

Do not use near bathtubs, showers, or water-filled basins. Always unplug after use. Keep out of reach of children. If the cord is damaged, have it replaced by a qualified person.

Does the warranty cover damage from misuse?

No, the 2-year limited guarantee covers manufacturing defects only. Damage from misuse, neglect, unauthorized repairs, or normal wear and tear is excluded.

Can I use the curling wand on wigs or extensions?

Only after testing on a small section first to check if the material can withstand heat. Some synthetic hair may melt.

How long does it take to cool down after use?

The device reaches high temperatures, so allow it to cool completely on a heat-resistant surface before cleaning or storing. This may take several minutes.

What is the recommended way to store the curling wand?

Ensure it is completely cool and dry. Store in a safe, dry place out of reach of children. Do not wrap the cord around the appliance.

10. The appliance should not be immersed in water

or other liquids. Never use the appliance with wet hands and never place the appliance on a wet or damp surface.

1. Always unplug the appliance from the mains supply immediately after use, if the appliance is used in a bathroom since the proximity of water presents a hazard even when the appliance is switched off.
2. Always examine appliance, cord and plug for damage before use. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, or his service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

Use

Plug the appliance in. Turn the power button to any temperature setting – LOW-MID-HIGH. The indicator light comes on. Select a suitable temperature based on your hair type. See the recommendations below:

LOW - 120 °C low temperature - thin, fine hair/coloured hair
MID - 160 °C medium temperature - normal hair
HIGH - 200 °C high temperature - very thick and resilient hair

Make sure your hair is completely dry before you start styling. Take a section of hair and hold the tongs near the scalp. Wind the section of hair evenly around the heating element and hold for around 5-8 seconds, depending on the type of hair and the desired results. Repeat the same procedure with the next

section of hair, and so on. Thanks to the elliptical shape of the heating element, you can easily vary the volume of the curls by taking thicker or thinner sections of hair.

With the Curler wand elliptic, you can experiment to see which style suits you. The styling can, of course, be varied and combined depending on the desired results. For a more durable result, do not comb or brush your hair until it has cooled.

Make sure that the hot parts of the tongs do not come into contact with your scalp, face, neck or hands.

Do not use the tongs on wigs, extensions or artificial hair without testing them on a small section of hair first to discover if there is a risk of the hair melting.

Always switch off the appliance after use by turning the power button to OFF and then unplugging the appliance.

Auto-off function

The tongs automatically switch off after around 60 minutes. Please note that the tongs are not fully switched off until you turn the power button to OFF. To activate the tongs again, turn the power button to a different temperature setting. The auto-off function is an extra safety function, but in principle the appliance should always be unplugged after use.

Cleaning and maintenance

• Always switch off the appliance by turning the power button to OFF and then unplugging the appliance.
• Allow the appliance to cool down completely on a heat-resistant surface before cleaning. The appliance reaches very high temperatures when in use, and therefore takes a long time to cool down completely.
• The appliance and cord must not be immersed in water or other liquids and must not come into direct contact with water.
  • Make sure that water does not get into the casing!
• Wipe off the exterior of the appliance and the heating element with a damp cloth. Wipe with a dry cloth.
