USE
Warning: hot surfaces! Do not let your fingers touch the metal parts of the appliance.
When in use, take care to keep the appliance from coming into contact with scalp,
face, ears and neck.
Avoid directing steam toward face or neck.
• Carefully untangle hair. Secure top sections of hair with clips to start working on
bottom sections of hair first.
• Plug in the appliance and switch on.
• Set the desired temperature using the temperature setting selector (+ and - buttons).
We recommend using a lower temperature for fine, bleached and/or damaged hair,
and a higher temperature for curly, thick and/or difficult-to-style hair. As each hair type
is different, we recommend that you start with the lowest heat setting first. You can
gradually increase the heat setting with each successive use, if needed. Refer to the
table below as a guide:
Temperature
150 – 170 °C
Green LED - Yellow LED
170 – 210 °C
Yellow LED - Red LED
210 – 230 °C
Red LED
• The
LED
indicator light blinks until the selected temperature has been reached.
To straighten hair: We recommend you activate the steam function using the steam
function button (1). The steam function LED indicator (2) lights up. The steam feature
is instant, you can start straightening your hair right away. Take up a section about 5
cm wide and place it between the 2 heating plates, near the roots of your hair. Close
the appliance and keep the plates closed by using your other hand, while taking care
not to touch the plates with your hands. Slowly slide the appliance down the whole
section of hair from the roots to the tips (Fig. 2). Repeat several times if necessary and
repeat this step around the head.
• Let the hair cool down before you comb it.
• After use, switch off and unplug the appliance. • Allow the unit to cool before storing.
To curl the hair: you must first deactivate the steam function to properly curl your
hair. We also recommend that you curl your hair without first straightening it. Take
up a section about 2 to 4 cm wide and place it between the 2 heating plates, near the
roots of your hair. Turn the appliance 180° or 360° inwards or outwards, depending on
the desired effect (Fig. 3). Slowly slide the straightener in a continuous fashion down
the entire section of hair, from the roots to the tips, using your other hand to keep
the plates firmly closed around the hair (Fig. 4-5). Remove the straightener and twist
the section with your fingers so that it falls into its natural position (Fig. 6). Repeat if
necessary. You may wish to set the curls using a light misting of hairspray.

STEAM FUNCTION
Turn on the appliance and activate the steam function using the steam function
button. The steam function LED indicator lights up.
If no steam comes out:
• the appliance may have switched to standby mode. Open or close the appliance
plates; the steam function will be reactivated.
• the water tank may be empty (to fill the tank, see above).
Notes:
• The first time you use the appliance, you may notice a slight odour: this is quite
normal and it will disappear the next time you use it.
• Each time you use the appliance, you may see some steam. This can be caused by
sebum evaporation or traces of hair products (rinse-free treatments, hairspray, etc.).
• It is possible to use a heat protection spray for optimal protection of the hair.
• It is quite normal to hear a slight noise, similar to a crackle: this is the characteristic
noise of the ion generator.
