[. . . ] ThermoCeramic heating elements heat up in seconds and ensure a high and constant temperature. Before After STEP 1: DRYING YOUR HAIR ¼ After you have shampooed and conditioned your hair, comb through gently using a wide toothcomb. When wet, hair can stretch by up to 1/3 of its length. Treat it gently at this stage, to avoid damaging your hair. ¼ Before you apply a heat protection spray, use your hairdryer to `waft' the excess moisture from your hair. [. . . ] Ensure your hair is thoroughly dry before you begin styling ­ this will avoid damage to the hair. 7. Clean your straightener regularly for best results. Always do this when the straightener is switched off and has cooled down. WIRING The product is fitted with a 13A (BS1363) plug. Check the voltage on the rating plate of your appliance corresponds with your house electricity supply which must be AC (Alternating Current). If the socket outlets in your home are not suitable for the plug supplied with this appliance the plug should be removed and an appropriate one fitted. IMPORTANT: THE PLUG, REMOVED FROM THE MAINS LEAD, IF SEVERED, MUST BE DESTROYED AS A PLUG WITH BARED FLEXIBLE CORD IS HAZARDOUS IF ENGAGED INTO A LIVE SOCKET OUTLET. 4. Divide your hair into sections, brushing each section thoroughly. Clamp a section of the hair between the straightening plates, as close to the roots as possible. Gently slide the straightener down your hair shaft to the ends. For more difficult sections of hair, you may need to repeat this. Avoid leaving your hair clamped inside the straightener for more than a few seconds, as this could cause unnecessary damage to the cuticle. To create movement in the hair, use your wrist to shape the ends either inwards our outwards depending on the style you wish to achieve. CLEANING YOUR STRAIGHTENER Over time, you will find a natural build up on your straightening plates. This can be caused by natural oils in your hair and styling products and lotions. At the first sign of build up, you should clean your straightening plates. To do this, always switch your straightener off and wait for them to cool down. Wipe with a damp cloth, or a non abrasive cleaning wipe. Failure to do this may mean the build up becomes burnt onto the straightening plates and they will become difficult to clean. If your straightening plates do become discoloured it will NOT affect their performance. 2. Do not leave the plates in contact with the hair for more than a few seconds. The straightener reaches very high temperatures, so there is no need to leave the hair between the plates for longer than a few seconds. This will avoid unnecessary damage to the hair cuticle. Use the appliance for its intended use only. To protect against the risk of electric shock, do not immerse the appliance in water or any other liquids. [. . . ] Always be careful not to allow the plates to come into contact with the skin.
