Next, select one of the operation modes: SensoCare or

Manual Mode, then confirm.

A SensoCare

In SensoCare mode, intelligent sensor technology enables

continuous temperature adaptation according to the specific

needs of your hair type. The styling temperature is not shown

on the display, but continuously optimized based on your hair

profile. This feature prevents hair damage caused by high

styling temperatures.

Set your profile / first use

To set your profile, go through the hair length, thickness and

coloration screens and select according to your hair type.

Confirm each setting with the center button and save your

settings by selecting a profile name (e.g. Profile 1). Confirm

and select «Continue» if you want to use your profile right

away.

The flashing thermometer symbol shows that the appliance

is heating up. Once the thermometer symbol stops flashing,

the optimum styling temperature is reached and you can start

styling.

Next use

Once a profile has been saved (e.g. Profile 1), the screen will

show it right after switching on the next time. Just confirm and

the appliance starts heating up.

Edit profiles

You can add new profiles or delete existing profiles. Up to

3 profiles can be saved.

You can modify your profile (e.g. if your hair length or colour

have changed).

Reset All

If you want to reset all settings (language and all profiles)

choose «Reset All» on the «Delete Profile» screen.

B Manual Mode

Manual Mode allows you to select the styling temperature.

This temperature will remain the same throughout the styling

process since the sensor-based automatic temperature

adaptation is deactivated in manual mode.

Move the cursor to «Manual Mode» and confirm. The default

temperature setting of 160 °C is displayed. Using the q p

arrows, you may change the temperature setting in a range

from 120 to 200 °C. While the appliance heats up, the temper-

ature screen flashes. When the flashing stops, the selected

temperature is reached and you can start styling.

C Using the appliance

Preparation

• Make sure your hair has been dried completely and evenly

before using the appliance.

• Comb your hair with a wide toothed comb to remove

tangles.

• Section your hair off. Starting close to the roots, take a thin

strand (2-3 cm maximum or 2 fingers wide) and clamp it

firmly between the styling plates.

How to straighten your hair

• Gently run the appliance through the entire length of the

hair, slowly and steadily, from roots to the ends without

stopping for longer than 2 seconds. This will ensure best

straightening results without damaging your hair. The styling

plates ensure easy and smooth gliding.

• For improved control when gliding along a strand, you may

stabilise the appliance by holding it with the other hand on

the cool touch points (1).

• You can create flicks at the hair ends by slowly turning the

appliance either outwards or inwards before releasing a

strand.

How to form loose curls and waves

Clamp a thin strand at the roots,

rotate the appliance half a turn so that the strand glides

through the styling plates and then over the active forming

area,

then slowly move the appliance horizontally towards hair

tips. When pulling the appliance beyond the hair tips, the

strand will turn into curl.
