•Pull the power cable out to its full length, and insert the plug in the power socket (220-240V 50-60Hz)

•To heat the curlers (1) turn the ON/OFF switch (4) to position I. The indicator light will come on to show that

the unit is working.

•Leave the unit to heat up for at least 10 minutes. The transparent cover must be kept closed until the curlers

are ready for use.

•When the curlers are hot, the red dot (3) on the curler itself will change colour. When it turns from red to

white, this means that the curlers have reached the proper temperature and are ready for use.

•Only use the unit on dry hair.

•Take a strand of hair, pull it straight and wrap it around the curler. The curler must be held on the unheated

holding edge (2). The strand must never be wider than the length of the curler. Start from the tips of the hair

when wrapping the strand around the curler.

•Select the size of curler to be used (small, medium, large) according to the length of your hair and the size

of curl you wish to obtain.

•Select the direction in which the strand of hair is wrapped around the curler according to the type of hairstyle

you which to achieve (traditional curls or hairstyle with added volume).

•After wrapping the strand of hair, fix the curler using the metal clips (7) or butterfly clips (8).

•Repeat the above procedure with the other strands, according to the hairstyle you wish to achieve.

•Leave the curlers to cool down completely.

•Remove the clips one at a time, starting from the ones at the bottom, and taking care not to get the hair tangled.

•Leave the hair to cool completely before adjusting with the hands. Do not use a brush!

•For a more long-lasting set, use setting or fixing products before or after putting the curlers in your hair:

•for fine hair, apply a “volumising” spray or mousse on damp or dry hair before setting.

- for thick hair, use a strong gel.

- to prevent any loss of volume in the curls formed, it is recommended that you spray any fixing lotions from

the bottom up, lifting the curls, rather from the top of the hairstyle.

•You can create endless different types of waves and curls with your curler set: be creative and try lots of

different hairstyles!
