Straightening Hair
- Ensure your hair is clean, dry, and detangled.
- Divide your hair into small, manageable sections.
- Place a section of hair between the tourmaline ceramic coated plates, close to the roots.
- Gently close the plates and slowly glide the flat iron down the length of your hair, from roots to ends. Avoid pausing in one spot to prevent heat damage.
- Repeat for all sections until desired straightness is achieved.
Creating Waves or Curls
The flat iron can also be used to create soft waves or curls:
- For loose waves, gently place a section of hair between the plates, twist the iron at a 180-degree angle, and glide it quickly through the hair.
- For tighter curls, twist the iron at a 180-degree angle and glide it more slowly through the hair.

Maintenance and Care
- Cleaning: Ensure the appliance is unplugged and completely cool before cleaning. Wipe the plates and exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
- Storage: When not in use, unplug the appliance and allow it to cool completely. Store it in a safe, dry location, out of reach of children. Do not wrap the power cord around the appliance, as this can damage the cord.
- Cord Care: Regularly inspect the power cord for any signs of damage. If the cord is damaged, discontinue use and contact customer support.
Troubleshooting
- Appliance Not Heating: Ensure the flat iron is securely plugged into a functional electrical outlet. Check if the on/off switch is in the 'on' position.
- Inconsistent Heat: Verify that the selected heat setting is appropriate for your hair type. Allow sufficient time for the appliance to reach its set temperature.
- Hair Snagging: Ensure hair is fully detangled before use. The floating plates are designed to minimize snagging; if persistent, inspect plates for any damage.
- Automatic Shut-off: This is a safety feature. If the appliance turns off unexpectedly, it may be due to prolonged inactivity. Simply turn it back on.
