This curling appliance is intended for 
household use. Use on Alternating Current 
(50/60 hertz) only. 
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is 
wider than the other). As a safety 
feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only 
one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the out-
let, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact 
a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat 
this safety feature.

DUAL VOLTAGE
This curling iron will automatically adjust to 
the proper voltage. Use an adapter plug with 
correct configuration prior to use in outlet.

GETTING STARTED
The iron’s 30 temperature settings and instant 
heat technology combine to provide styling ver-
satility for all hair textures. If you have fine hair, 
a low temperature will provide the best results. 
If you have thick, wavy or coarse hair, keep the 
heat setting high. You can vary the iron’s tem-
perature according to your particular need!

CURLING BASICS
1. Plug the curling iron cord into any household 
outlet (120/240V). Press On button (light will 
indicate unit is on). The iron will heat up very 
quickly. To turn off, press Off button (light will 
go off).
Never leave your curling iron on and unattended. 
However, should you fail to turn the iron off, it will 
shut itself off automatically within 
60 minutes.
2. Section dry hair evenly, and comb each sec-
tion before winding. Pressing the automatic curl 
release, place curling iron midway up the hair 
section, then spread hair evenly between spoon 
and barrel. Release automatic curl release to 
hold hair in place. Gently slide curling iron down 
to hair ends. To avoid crimped ends, make sure 
they are securely wound under the spoon in the 
direction of the desired curl.

1. Remove water reservoir cap in order to fill.
2. Fill reservoir with water.
3. Place cap back onto unit making sure water is 
not leaking out.
NOTE: Fully immerse the wick and wick holder 
in water for at least 15 seconds before use.
STEAM MIST FEATURE
1. This curling iron has a continuous steam mist 
feature. To activate steam mist feature, first fill 
the reservoir with distilled water before turning 
the unit on. Do not add water while appliance 
is on.
2. Once water reservoir is filled, turn unit on and 
select desired temperature setting.
3. Water will heat up and gentle mist will slowly 
be emitted.
4. Curl hair.
5. After use, empty water from reservoir.
6. To use iron without mist feature, simply 
use iron without water in reservoir. If there is 
already water in reservoir, unplug iron, allow to 
cool, and then empty reservoir.

Remember, always place the spoon above the 
hair strand when making a curl you want rolled 
under; place the spoon under the hair strand 
when making a flip style.
3. Wind the hair up as far as you want it curled, 
being careful not to let the iron touch the scalp. 
Hold in place for 8-12 seconds depending on the 
texture and length of your hair. For tighter, bouncier 
curls, roll less hair. For looser, free flowing curls, roll 
more hair. 
4. To remove curling iron, unwind the hair and 
press the automatic curl release. To “set” the 
curl, do not comb or brush hair until it cools. 
5. A bonus protective heat shield has been includ-
ed to safely store product away when hot. Great 
for use at home or when traveling. Do not leave 
unit plugged in when not in use.

The barrel of your new curling iron has a 
Tourmaline Ceramic

™

 technology easy-glide sur-

face, the newest technology. You’ll fi nd that hair 
glides easily over the surface of the barrel as you’re 
curling. The Tourmaline Ceramic

 surface also 

helps smooth down fl yaways and frizzies. It 
evenly distributes heat so that the style you create 
has a salon-perfect, silky smooth, shining fi nish. 
Hair also slips right through the barrel after it’s
