Assemble the plate appropriate to the type of hairstyle

you wish to create on the appliance, sliding it into its

housings as shown in fig. 1 until it is anchored in

place. Do not use the comb guide (L) when using the

waver plates.

Steam function

If you wish to use the plate with the steam function,

release the reservoir (E) by pressing button (D),

grasp the end of the reservoir with two fingers and

remove it from the plate body. Open the reservoir by

turning the cap (F) anti-clockwise. Fill the reservoir,

being careful to make sure that water does not over-

flow, and screw the cap on, turning it clockwise. An-

chor the reservoir onto the plate again, sliding it into

the guides until it is locked in place. Whenever you

press the reservoir in the direction of the handle, the

plates will release a small jet of steam.

Dry use

To use the plate dry, without steam, you need not fill

the water reservoir.

Your hair must be slightly damp when you use the pro-

fessional plate. Separate out a section of hair about 5

cm wide and comb it through. Place the section be-

tween the two hot straightening plates and tighten the

handles of the appliance firmly. For a totally straight

look, work from the roots toward the ends of the hair.

Or, you may straighten only some sections of hair, to

add softness and texture.

Hold the appliance in position for a few seconds, de-

pending on your hair type (5 seconds will be enough

for fine hair, while 8 seconds will be necessary for

medium to thick hair).

To release the hair from the plates, simply release the

pressure on the handles.

If you are straightening a large amount of hair, you

may need to repeat the process. Line up the outer

part of the hair with the end of the straightening plate.

Close the appliance for 5 – 8 seconds. Repeat the

process as necessary to obtain the desired effect.

You will be able to create your own personal look with

practice.

Waves.

Follow the same procedure as for straightening hair,

but use the waver plate (D). Do not use the comb with

the waver plate.

IMPORTANT: follow the instructions provided in the

manual to prevent damage to hair.

sharply or wind it, especially near the plug, as it may

break or a short circuit may occur.

bearing capacity of at least 3 kg by its eyelet (B).
