Operation
■ Plug in the appliance and place on a
level, heatresistant surface.
■ To switch on, hold down the on / off
switch 1 for about 1 second.
The preset temperature (140°C) lights up
on the display 3.
■ The desired temperature can now be set
using the temperature selector 2 at inter
vals of 10 between 120°C and 200°C.
– Up to 140°C for fine, delicate hair
– Approx. 180°C for normal hair
– 180°C or higher for thick or wavy hair.
Tip: Reduce the temperature for damaged
hair (the ideal temperature is approx.
140°C) to protect it.
The appliance heats up, the preset
tempera t ure flashes in the display.
The appliance is ready for use when the
preset temperature is illuminated and no
longer flashing.
Note: To switch off, hold down the on / off
switch 1 for about 1 second.
Use
W Risk of burns!
Never allow appliance to come into contact
with skin (scalp or ears).
■ Only use the appliance on dry hair.
■ Use only on untreated, healthy hair.
■ Use less frequently on permed, coloured
or affected hair.
Note: Fine hair responds very quickly to
the treatment. The even heat emission is
especially gentle on the hair.
■ Comb the hair and section it into even
strands (about 23 cm wide). The finer
the strands, the tighter the curl, as all the
hair comes into contact with the heated
curling tongs.
■ Open the curling tongs by pressing the
clip 5.
■ Insert a strand of hair and close the clip.

■ Now pull the curling tongs down to the
ends of the hair and turn to wind up the
strand. Figure 1b
Important: If you have long hair, use the
entire surface of the heated barrel. This
spreads the heat evenly through the hair
and delivers better styling results.
■ Leave the curling tongs in the hair for a
few seconds to shape the curl.
■ Release the strand of hair by opening the
clip with small movements while removing
the curling iron sideways from the hair
strand.
N.B.: Make sure that the curl is not pulled
straight when removing the curling tongs.
For longer lasting curls, use a hair clip to
hold the curl in place while it is still rolled up.
Tip: Allow hair to cool completely before
styling.
Give your hair extra volume by running your
fingers through the curls.
