This styling iron features Conair’s Instant Heat
technology. This Instant Heat technology has
20 variable temperature settings. Every type
of hair, from the finest to the curliest and most
resistant, has a temperature range that’s
gentle and safe for it and helps you create
the look you want. And that’s not all. Conair’s
professional salon standards of engineering
provide you with a Uniform Heat Recovery
System that maintains the iron at constant
temperatures. There is a constant flow of
power to ensure that heat is continuously
delivered for optimal styling results, unlike
other units that lose heat during use. This
provides consistent styling power so that
every strand of your hair is set with the same
level of heat and comes out the same way for
a perfect finish.
coated surface, the newest technology. The
ceramic-coated surface also helps smooth
down flyaways and frizzies. It evenly distrib-
utes heat so that the style you create has a
salon-perfect, silky smooth, shining finish.
Hair also slips right through the plates after
it’s straightened. This means it’s not only
simpler to clean off styling product residue,
etc., after each use, but you’ll find that hair
glides easily over the surface of the plates
as you’re straightening.

This straightening iron is intended for house-
hold use. Use on Alternating Current (50/60
hertz) only. This unit is designed to be oper-
ated at 120/240 volts A/C. The appliace 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 defeat this
safety feature.
Plug the straightening iron cord into any
household outlet (120/240V). The red LED
will come on indicating the unit is plugged in.
Press the On button (the red and green LEDs
will blink indicating that the straightener is
heating up). The red light will shut off once
the iron has reached the optimal heat level.
The iron will heat up very quickly. Hair should
be clean and completely dried before using
the straightening iron. For best results, use
a light styling product before blow-drying
hair. To turn off, press Off button (red light will
go off). Never leave your straightening iron on
and unattended. However, should you fail to
turn the unit off, it will shut itself off automati-
cally within 60 minutes.

BEFORE USING.

Start with a hair section that is 2" wide
and no more than 1/2" thick. Open the
iron and place a hair section between the
two hot plates, close to the scalp. Trap hair
between the plates by firmly squeezing the
handles together. While maintaining the ten-
sion, slowly pull the unit down along the hair
section toward the end of hair. At the end
of hair section, release the pressure on the
handle and allow the hair section to slide
out. Repeat process on additional sections
of hair until you achieve the hair style you
desire. It may be necessary to repeat process
on certain areas, depending on the texture of
your hair.
