5. Operating Instructions

1. Preparation: Ensure your hair is clean, dry, and free of tangles. For best results and heat protection, apply a heat protectant spray.
2. Power On: Press and hold the power button until the digital display illuminates.
3. Set Temperature: Use the temperature control buttons (+ / -) to select your desired heat setting.
   • Fine/Chemically Treated Hair: 280-330°F (138-165°C)
   • Wavy/Medium Textured Hair: 310-390°F (154-199°C)
