Operating Instructions:

• 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 defeat this safety feature.

IMPORTANT: During the first few minutes of initial use, you may notice smoke and a slight odor. This is normal and is not a cause for concern. Start-up: Plug the iron into an electrical outlet and slide the On / Off Switch to the “On” position. Allow the appliance at least 60 seconds heating time.

Caution: Curling irons with Rheostat Control Dials operate at high temperatures when used on high settings. When using for the first time, begin with the LOWEST setting. Please read all instructions carefully before using.

Helpful Styling Hints:

• Hair should be clean and dried completely before using any styling tool.
• Comb out a 2-inch section of hair and place hair ends between the Barrel and Clamp. The Clamp should be on top of the hair.
• Using one hand to hold the Cool Tip and the other to hold the curling iron Handle, roll under for a curl and over for a flip.
• Leave the iron in fine hair for 5 to 8 seconds, and 10 to 15 seconds for thick hair.
• Press Thumb Grip to release hair. • Allow curls to cool before combing or brushing.
• When styling is complete, slide the “On / Off” Switch to the “Off” position. Unplug the appliance and allow it to cool before storing.
