IF YOU MUST USE YOUR HOT AIR STYLER IN THE BATHROOM, INSTALL A GFCI* NOW!
Your local electrician can help you decide which type is best for you – a
portable unit that plugs into the electrical outlet or a permanent unit
installed by your electrician. The National Electrical Code now requires GFCIs
in the bathrooms, garages, and outdoor outlets of all new homes.
WHY DO YOU NEED A GFCI?
Electricity and water don’t mix. If your hot air style falls in water while
it’s plugged in, the electric shock can kill you… even if the switch is off.
A regular fuse or circuit breaker won’t protect you under these circumstances.
A GFCI offers you far greater protection.
A GFCI can save your life! Compared to that, the price is small! Don’t wait… install one now!
- GFCI is a sensitive device that reacts immediately to a small electric current leak by stopping the electricity fl ow.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
- Unplug the appliance and let cool completely before cleaning it.
- Use a damp cloth to clean carefully. Make sure the appliance is completely dry before using again.
- The rear filter should be cleaned on a regular basis using a soft brush to help prevent buildup and overheating. This will also prolong the motor life.
USER MAINTENANCE
Your hot air styler is virtually maintenance free. No lubrication is needed.
For proper operating performance, the hot air styler must be kept clean. When
cleaning is needed, unplug the cord, allow to cool and clean dust and lint
from air intake openings with a small brush or the brush attachment of a
vacuum cleaner. The outer surface of the hot air styler should be wiped clean
with a cloth only.
Blocked or clogged air intake vents will cause the hot air styler to overheat.
If overheating occurs, an automatic safety device will shut the hot air styler
or the heat off to prevent damage or personal injury. If the unit or the heat
turns off, unplug the cord and allow the hot air styler to cool for 10 to 15
minutes before restarting. Make sure the air vents are clean.
CAUTION
NEVER allow the power supply cord to be pulled, twisted, or severely bent.
Never wrap the cord tightly around the hot air styler. Damage will occur at
the high fl ex point of entry into the hot air styler, causing it to rupture
and short circuit. Inspect the cord frequently for damage. Stop use
immediately if damage is visible or unit stops or operates intermittently.
If the cord or hot air style is damaged or does not operate properly, return
it for repair to an authorized Conair service representative only. No repairs
should be attempted by the consumer.
STORAGE – IMPORTANT
When not in use, your hot air style should be disconnected, allowed to cool
and stored in a safe, dry location, out of reach of children. Do not wrap line
cord around hot air style. Allow the cord to hang or lie loose and straight at
the point of entry into the hot air styler.
