This document describes an automatic hair curler designed for ease of use and portability, offering a convenient way to style hair without the need for a power outlet during operation. The device is intended for domestic use and incorporates several features to ensure user safety and optimal performance.
Function Description
The automatic hair curler is a battery-powered styling tool that creates curls by drawing sections of hair into a heated curling chamber. Users can customize their curling experience by adjusting temperature, curl direction (left or right), and curling time. The device features an LCD display that shows the selected settings and battery status. Once the desired settings are chosen, the hair is automatically drawn into the chamber, heated, and released after a set time, producing consistent curls. The curler is designed to be cordless, making it suitable for use in various locations. It also includes a power bank function, allowing it to charge other USB-powered devices.
Usage Features
- Cordless Operation: The curler is powered by an internal, non-replaceable battery, providing freedom from power cords during styling. It is charged via a MicroUSB input.
- Intuitive Controls: The device features a "Power ON/OFF" button, a "Menu" button for cycling through settings, and an "Adjustment" button for changing values.
- LCD Display: An LCD screen clearly shows the current temperature, curl direction (L for left, R for right), time setting, heating status, and battery level.
- Adjustable Temperature Settings: Users can select from multiple temperature options (150°C, 160°C, 170°C, 180°C, 190°C, 200°C) to suit different hair types and desired curl intensity. The temperature can also be displayed in Fahrenheit.
- Adjustable Time Settings: The curling time can be set from 8s, 10s, 12s, 14s, 16s, to 18s, allowing for varying curl tightness.
- Adjustable Curl Direction: The curler offers options for curling hair to the left or right, providing versatility in styling.
- Automatic Shut-Off: For safety and battery conservation, the device automatically turns off after 10 minutes of inactivity.
- Heating Indicator: A blinking heating symbol on the LCD display indicates that the device is heating up. A "beep-beep" sound signals when the set temperature has been reached.
- Automatic Curling Process: After a section of hair is placed into the curling chamber and the "Start" button is pressed, the motor automatically draws the hair in. A first beep indicates to release the "Start" button, and a final series of beeps signals that the curling process is complete for that section. The number of beeps for the final signal depends on the selected time setting.
- Charging Instructions: The device should be fully charged before optimal use. While charging, a flashing indicator light is displayed, which stops flashing and shows 4 bars when fully charged. The device should not be used while charging.
- Low Battery Indicator: When the battery level is low, the display flashes, and the unit automatically switches off.
- Power Bank Function: The curler can also function as a power bank. By connecting a USB cable to the "USB output" port, users can charge other compatible devices.
