5. Never operate this appliance if it has a
damaged cord or plug, if it is not working
properly or if it has been dropped or damaged, or
dropped into water. Return the appliance to an
authorized service center for examination and
repair.
6. Keep the cord away from heated surfaces.
7. Never use while sleeping.
8. Never drop or insert any object into any
opening or hose.
9. Do not use outdoors or operate where aerosol
(spray) products are being used or where oxygen
is being administered.
10. Unit is hot when in use. Do not let eyes or
bare skin touch heated surfaces.
11. Do not place the heated unit directly on any
surface while it is hot or plugged in.
12. Never block the air openings of the appliance
or place on a soft surface such as a bed or

Keep the air opening free of lint and other debris.
13. Do not use an extension cord with this
appliance.
14. Do not touch hot surfaces of the appliance.
Use handles or knobs.
15. Do not attempt to touch the housing of your
appliance near the barrel, as it is hot when in

16. While emitting steam, this curling iron may
cause burns if it is used too closely to the skin, scalp
or eyes, or if it is used incorrectly.
17. To reduce the risk of contact with hot water
emitting from steam vents, test curling iron
before each use by holding it away from body
and operating steam button.
Remember, always place the spoon above the
hair strand when making a curl you want rolled
under; place the spoon under the hair strand
when making a flip style.
3. Wind the hair up as far as you want it curled,
being careful not to let the iron touch the scalp.
Hold in place for 8-12 seconds depending on the
texture and length of your hair. For tighter, bouncier
curls, roll less hair. For looser, free flowing curls, roll
more hair.
4. To remove curling iron, unwind the hair and
press the automatic curl release. To “set” the
curl, do not comb or brush hair until it cools.
5. A bonus protective heat shield has been includ-
ed to safely store product away when hot. Great
for use at home or when traveling. Do not leave
unit plugged in when not in use.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE USING.
KEEP AWAY FROM WATER
This curling appliance is intended for
household use. Use on Alternating Current
(50/60 hertz) only.
Maximum 21-30
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 out-
let, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact
a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat
this safety feature.
DANGER - Any appliance is electrically live
even when the switch is off. To reduce the risk of
death by electric shock:
1. Always unplug appliance immediately after
using.
2. Do not use while bathing.
3. Do not place or store appliance where it can
fall or be pulled into a tub or sink.
4. Do not place in, or drop into, water or other
liquid.
5. If an appliance falls into water, unplug it
immediately. Do not reach into the water.
CURLING BASICS
1. Plug the curling iron cord into any household
outlet (120/240V). Press On button (light will
indicate unit is on). The iron will heat up very
quickly. To turn off, press Off button (light will
go off).
Never leave your curling iron on and unattended.
However, should you fail to turn the iron off, it will
shut itself off automatically within
60 minutes.
2. Section dry hair evenly, and comb each sec-
tion before winding. Pressing the automatic curl
release, place curling iron midway up the hair
section, then spread hair evenly between spoon
and barrel. Release automatic curl release to
hold hair in place. Gently slide curling iron down
to hair ends. To avoid crimped ends, make sure
they are securely wound under the spoon in the
direction of the desired curl.
STYLING WITH THE NEW
TOURMALINE CERAMIC™ TECHNOLOGY
EASY-GLIDE BARREL
DUAL VOLTAGE
This curling iron will automatically adjust to
the proper voltage. Use an adapter plug with
correct configuration prior to use in outlet.
The barrel of your new curling iron has a
Tourmaline Ceramic™ technology easy-glide sur-
face, the newest technology. You’ll find that hair
glides easily over the surface of the barrel as you’re
curling. The Tourmaline Ceramic™ surface also
helps smooth down flyaways and frizzies. It
evenly distributes heat so that the style you create
has a salon-perfect, silky smooth, shining finish.
Hair also slips right through the barrel after it’s
curled, and the ceramic surface is easy to clean
as well.
GETTING STARTED
The iron’s 30 temperature settings and instant
heat technology combine to provide styling ver-
satility for all hair textures. If you have fine hair,
a low temperature will provide the best results.
If you have thick, wavy or coarse hair, keep the
heat setting high. You can vary the iron’s tem-
perature according to your particular need!
