Remington Super Glide Ceramic Straightener

Important Safeguards

Warning: When the straightener is used in a bathroom, unplug it after use as proximity to water presents a hazard even when switched off.

Basic safety precautions should always be followed when using electrical appliances, especially when children are present:

• READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
• KEEP AWAY FROM WATER.

DANGER - Electrical parts are live even when the switch is off. To reduce the risk of death by electric shock:

• Always unplug immediately after use.
• Do not place or store an appliance where it can fall or be pulled into a bath or sink.
• Do not use while bathing.
• Do not place or drop into water or other liquid.
• If an appliance falls into water, unplug it immediately. Do not reach into the water.
• For additional protection, the installation of a residual current device (RCD) with a rated residual operating current not exceeding 30 mA is advisable in the electrical circuit supplying the bathroom. Consult an electrical contractor for advice.

WARNING - TO REDUCE THE RISK OF BURNS, ELECTROCUTION, FIRE, OR INJURY TO PERSONS:

• Never leave the straightener unattended when plugged in.

How to Use Your Remington® Super Glide Ceramic Straightener

• The straightener is ready to use in approximately 15 seconds.
• Activate Turbo Boost (230°C) by holding '+' for 2 seconds. Activate Temperature Lock by holding '-' for 2 seconds.

Recommended Temperatures

To Straighten Your Hair

• Part hair (middle or side) and section using clips (top, sides, back).
• Comb hair to ensure it is tangle-free.
• Start at the nape of the neck, straightening underneath sections first, then moving to upper layers.
• Take a 5 cm section of hair, pull taut and away from the scalp. Clamp the straightener firmly at the roots.
• Run the straightener down the entire length of the hair section in one smooth stroke.
• Repeat if extra straightening is needed.
• Continue until desired results are achieved.

To Curl Your Hair

• Section hair as described above.
• Grip a 5 cm section of hair firmly between the plates near the roots. (Smaller sections create tighter curls).
• Gently rotate the straightener 180° while maintaining tension and pulling through the hair section from roots to ends.
• Ensure continuous rotation.
• Remove the straightener, hold the hair length, and allow the curl to form.

Maintenance

This straightener is virtually maintenance-free for household use. For cleaning, disconnect from power, allow to cool, and wipe the exterior with a soft damp cloth. Do not immerse in liquid. Do not use abrasive cleaners on the ceramic plates as this will scratch the surface.

Storage

• Always unplug the straightener when not in use. Allow it to cool and store out of children's reach in a safe, dry place.
• Never wrap the power cord around the straightener, as this can cause premature wear and breakage. Handle the cord carefully to prolong its life, avoiding jerking, twisting, or straining, especially at the plug and appliance connections. Straighten the cord periodically if it becomes twisted.
• Store with plates locked to protect them from scratches.

WARNING: Do not use this appliance near bathtubs, showers, basins, or other vessels containing water.

As with all electrical appliances, the power cord must be regularly checked for wear and tear. Cease using the product immediately if the power cord shows any signs of damage.

This product conforms to radio frequency interference requirements.
