To use a Conair automatic curling iron, you primarily focus on setting the correct temperature, curl direction, and time before you begin styling your hair. These settings are controlled using the main ON and SETTING buttons as outlined in the reference.
Here's a step-by-step guide based on the provided information:
Getting your curling iron ready involves just a couple of simple steps to power it on and access the setting options.
- Press ON for 2 seconds: This action powers up the device.
- Press ON again: After initially turning it on, press the ON button one more time. This action allows you to cycle through the available settings: temperature, curl direction, and time.
Selecting Temperature, Direction, and Time
Once the settings display is active after the second press of the ON button, you can choose your desired options using the SETTING button.
- Press SETTING: Use the SETTING button to select your preferred option for each category as it appears on the display.
Here are the options you can choose from according to the reference:
| Setting | Options |
|---|---|
| Temperature | 300°, 360°, 400° |
| Curl Direction | Left (L), Right (R) |
| Time | 6, 8, 10, 12 seconds |
Cycle through the options for temperature, curl direction, and time by pressing the ON button, and then select the desired value for each by pressing the SETTING button.
Navigating Curl Direction (Left vs. Right)
Choosing the correct curl direction setting is key to achieving the look you want, especially ensuring the curls frame your face correctly on both sides.
The reference provides a specific guide for selecting the curl direction based on which side of your head you are styling:
- Select L (left) curl direction when curling the right side of your head.
- Select R (right) curl direction when curling the left side of your head.
- You also have the option to mix them up for a more natural or varied look.
By following these steps, you can successfully set up your Conair automatic curling iron with the desired temperature, curl direction, and timing based on the instructions provided in the reference.
