Operating Instructions

5. Hold and Release: Hold the hair in place for a few seconds (duration depends on hair type and desired curl intensity). Gently open the clamp and release the curled hair.
6. Repeat: Continue curling sections of hair until your desired style is achieved.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Ensure the curling iron is unplugged and completely cool before cleaning. Wipe the barrel and handle with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the appliance in water.
• Storage: Store the cooled curling iron in a safe, dry place, away from moisture and extreme temperatures. Do not wrap the cord tightly around the appliance, as this can cause damage.
• Cord Care: Avoid twisting or bending the power cord excessively.

Troubleshooting

• Iron not heating: Ensure the curling iron is properly plugged into a working electrical outlet and the 'On' switch is activated. Check for any visible damage to the cord.
• Curls not holding: Ensure the correct heat setting is selected for your hair type. For thicker or harder-to-curl hair, a higher temperature or longer hold time may be necessary. Ensure hair is completely dry before curling.
• Hair snagging: Ensure hair is thoroughly detangled before use. Clean the barrel regularly to remove any product buildup.
