Setup and Getting Started Guide

Setting up your Remington Ionic Rollers H5600 is straightforward and requires minimal preparation:

Initial Setup Steps: Begin by unboxing your Remington Ionic Rollers H5600 and inspecting all components. Place the setter unit on a hard, flat, heat-resistant surface away from water and moisture. Ensure the area is clear of children and pets. Check that all 20 rollers, 20 metal pins, and 20 clips are present in your set.
Power Connection: Locate the polarized plug on your unit. The polarized plug has one blade wider than the other as a safety feature. Insert the plug into a polarized outlet—it will only fit one way. If the plug doesn't fit fully, reverse it rather than forcing it. Never attempt to defeat this safety feature. Once plugged in, a red indicator light will glow, signaling that the heat-up process has begun.
Heat-Up Process: Keep the lid closed during the entire heat-up period. The Remington Ionic Rollers H5600 requires 10 minutes for complete heating, though the rollers become usable after approximately 3 minutes. A ready dot indicator on the unit will change from red to white when the rollers reach optimal temperature for styling. Wait for this visual confirmation before beginning to set your hair.
Hair Preparation: Before using your rollers, wash and condition your hair, then towel-dry until damp but not soaking wet. Apply any preferred styling products or heat protectant sprays. Section your hair into manageable portions using clips, starting with smaller sections for tighter curls or larger sections for looser waves.
Safety Precautions: Never touch the rollers or metal components directly after heating. Always use the color-coded clips provided to secure rollers in place. The cool-touch end rings protect your fingers during application. Do not use this appliance for commercial purposes, and keep it away from children during operation.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Before use, ensure the hair is clean, dry, and tangle-free.
For extra protection, use a heat protection spray.
Hairsprays contain flammable material – do not use while using this product.
Section the hair before styling. Style the lower layers first.
Plug the product into the mains power supply.
CAUTION: The appliance will begin to heat up as soon as the power supply is switched on.
The lid should be in the down position until the rollers are ready to use.
The rollers will start to heat up in 3 minutes. Allow 10 minutes for them to reach the optimal curling temperature.
When the rollers are ready for use, the dot on top of the rollers will change colour. Open the lid for 1 minute and begin to use.

TO CURL

Select the desired size of roller. Use the small rollers for tighter curls; the larger rollers give looser curls and waves.
Take a section of hair, about the width of the roller.
Wrap the ends of the hair around the roller, keeping the hair at right angles to the scalp.
Wind the roller right down to the roots.
Secure the roller firmly in place with the correct size pin or clip, as near to the scalp as possible.
Repeat with the next section of hair.
Leave all the rollers in the hair until the rollers and hair have fully cooled down and set the style.
Note: Using fixing spray to help set and keep your style for longer.
Remove the rollers from your hair by removing each clip and gently unwinding.
Let the curl spring back into place and leave the hair to cool fully before styling to ensure the optimum set.

FOR VOLUME

Use the largest rollers provided.
Roll the top, front layer of the hair back to your crown, using one roller.
Next, use three other rollers to roll the remaining hair in three equal sections on the back and sides of the head.
Roll the hair under, up the nape of the neck.

FLICKED OUT

Use the largest rollers provided.
Roll the hair back and under to the crown to give height.
Take large sections all around the sides of your head, and roll up so the hair will flip out.
You should roll the curlers up to the level of the top of your ear. Leave the rollers in place for approximately ten minutes.
Unroll the curlers in the order that you put them in, and let the curl cool for a minute to set.
Next, brush your hair out, using your hands to shape the flip outward.
Unplug the unit after you have used all the rollers you need.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Unplug the appliance and allow it to cool.
Wipe all the surfaces with a damp cloth.
Don’t use harsh or abrasive cleaning agents or solvents.
Dry rollers completely before replacing them in the unit.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

Rollers Not Heating Properly: If your Remington Ionic Rollers H5600 rollers aren't reaching the desired temperature, ensure the unit is properly plugged into a working outlet. Check that the ready indicator light is illuminated. Allow the full 10-minute heat-up time with the lid closed. If problems persist, try a different outlet to rule out electrical issues.
Uneven Heat Distribution: Ensure all rollers are properly seated in the storage unit. Match the colored dots on roller ends to the corresponding ring openings for correct placement. Uneven heat often results from improper positioning. Close the lid completely to maintain consistent heating temperatures throughout all rollers.
Rollers Not Holding Curls: The length of time rollers remain in your hair directly affects curl longevity. For longer-lasting curls, leave rollers in place for 15-20 minutes after they cool completely. Ensure you're using the correct roller size for your desired curl—smaller rollers create tighter curls, while larger rollers create looser waves. Wait until rollers are completely cool before unwinding for the best results.
Hair Slipping from Rollers: The exclusive J-clips included with your Remington Ionic Rollers H5600 are designed for secure holding. Ensure clips are properly fastened over the roller and hair base. If slipping continues, try using the color-coded metal pins in addition to clips for extra security. Ensure hair sections aren't too thick for the roller size being used.
Frizz and Static Issues: The ionic conditioning technology in the Remington Ionic Rollers H5600 actively reduces static and frizz. If you experience excessive frizz, apply a smoothing serum or anti-frizz product before rolling. The ionic technology works best on damp hair, so avoid applying rollers to completely dry hair. Consider using a heat protectant spray for additional smoothness.
Storage and Maintenance: Always unplug the unit before storing. Allow rollers to cool completely before storing them in the provided case. Store in a dry location away from moisture and extreme temperatures. Clean the exterior with a damp cloth only—never immerse the unit in water. For replacement rollers or clips, contact Remington customer support or visit authorized retailers.
Warranty and Support: Your Remington Ionic Rollers H5600 includes a two-year limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. This warranty does not cover damage from accidents or misuse. For warranty claims or technical support, contact Remington customer service through their official website or authorized retailers.
