OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

This flatiron is intended for household use.
Use on Alternating Current (60 hertz) only. This unit is designed to be operated at 120 volts AC.
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to alter this safety feature.

warning NOTE: Do not use this styling appliance on hair extensions.

STYLING WITH THE NEW EASY-GLIDE, DOUBLE CERAMIC-COATED FLOATING PLATES

The plates of your new flat iron are designed to "float," providing better contact with hair, a smoother glide, tamed flyaways, and no gaps, so you can achieve straight, even, salon-perfect results in less time. The double ceramic-coated surface is one of the latest and most advanced technologies in hair appliances, designed for even heat distribution that produces silkier, shinier, healthierlooking hair. Plates clean with ease after they are completely cooled.

USING INSTANT HEAT, THE HIGH HEAT TEMPERATURE SETTINGS & UNIFORM HEAT RECOVERY SYSTEM

This flat iron maintains constant temperature during use for precision styling.
The professional salon standards of Conair^® engineering provide you with an improved, uniform heat recovery system that maintains the iron at constant temperatures. There is a constant surge of power to ensure that heat is continuously and quickly delivered for optimal styling results, unlike other units, which lose heat during use. This provides consistent styling power so that every strand of your hair gets the same level of heat and comes out evenly for a perfect finish.
The flat iron's unique 5 heat settings provide the optimal temperature for styling.

DOUBLE CERAMIC-COATED ROUNDED PLATES

Your new flat iron is designed with double ceramic-coated plates, which help minimize damage and add shine with each pass. The rounded edge of the plates won't snag or pull when styling.

GETTING STARTED

Plug in the unit. The ON/OFF button will light up immediately and the styler will be in standby mode.
Press and hold the ON/OFF button for 1-2 seconds to turn the unit on. The LOCK/UNLOCK symbol and Temperature Select symbol will light up. The default temperature setting of 340°F (170°C) will illuminate and you will see running bars until that temperature is reached. To select the desired temperature for your hair type, simply press the Temperature Select button repeatedly to go up to the next setting.

To turn the unit off, simply press the LOCK/UNLOCK button twice in quick succession (this unlocks the temperature setting) and press the ON/OFF button. Then press and hold the ON/OFF button for 1-2 seconds. The unit will turn off.

Within 5 seconds of turning the unit on, the temperature setting will automatically lock. Once it's locked, press the LOCK/UNLOCK button twice in quick succession to unlock and change the temperature setting. Never leave your flat iron on and unattended. However, should you fail to turn the unit off, it will shut itself off automatically within 60 minutes.

The flat iron's double ceramiccoated plates will get very hot within a few seconds. Keep the iron away from skin to avoid burns.

GET TO KNOW YOUR FLAT IRON

TO STRAIGHTEN HAIR

Hair should be clean and completely dry before using the flat iron. For best results, use a light styling product before blow-drying hair.

Start with a hair section that is 1½ inches wide and no more than ½ inch thick.
Open the iron and, using caution, place the plates around a section of hair near the scalp. Squeeze the plates together firmly by gripping the handles.
While maintaining the tension, slowly pull the unit down along the hair section toward the ends. At the ends, release the pressure on the handle and allow the hair to slide out.
Repeat the process on additional sections of hair until you achieve the hairstyle you desire. It may be necessary to repeat the process on certain areas, depending on the texture of your hair.

After several uses, you will discover the best techniques for straightening and styling your hair.
