Safety Instructions

ALCI Safety Device

This hair dryer is provided with an appliance leakage circuit interrupter (ALCI) safety device built into the plug. This device is designed to make the unit inoperable under some abnormal conditions, such as accidental immersion in water. The ALCI safety device is equipped with a test button so that its operation can be checked. This unit should be tested before each use to confirm that the safety device is operational.

To test:

After plugging in your hair dryer:

1. Press the reset button on the ALCI device.
2. Press the test button. The reset button will pop out. This verifies that the safety device is operating properly.
3. Press the reset button to reactivate your ALCI safety device.
4. Your hair dryer is now ready for use.

Note: This unit may automatically trip when unplugged. If so, the unit must be reset after it is plugged in. If the dryer doesn’t reset after following the above test-ing procedure, call 800-736-4648.

1. Should the ALCI safety device trip (i.e., reset button pops out) during use, press the reset button. Should the hair dryer fail to reset, call 800-736-4648. Never operate this appliance if it has been dropped in water.
2. The dryer is designed to work on ordinary household current only, 125 volts A.C., 60 Hz. It is not intended for commercial use.
3. This appliance is equipped with an automatic thermal limiter, which will cycle off when overheated and come back on when cooled down. If the unit cycles off, unplug the cord for several minutes before restarting.
4. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.

CAN SAVE A LIFE!

• *If you must use your hair dryer 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 GFCI’s in bathrooms, garages, and outdoor outlets of all new homes.

• Why do you need a GFCI?

Electricity and water don’t mix. If your hair dryer 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 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 flow.

• STRAIGHTENER/DETANGLING PICK
  Place pick underneath hair section to create volume and lift at the roots and comb through hair section to dry and detangle.

• BLOWOUT BOOST
  Take section of hair and place round brush underneath and dryer over so that the brush fits into the attachment. Pull through section to dry and create shape.

• DIFFUSER
  Enhance your natural curls/texture by placing sections of hair into the diffuser and allowing airflow to dry hair gently.

• SLIPSTREAM™ STRAIGHTENING ATTACHMENT
  Hold hair section and allow it to be drawn through the opening. Move dryer up and down the section focusing air flow at the roots for volume. Hold ends taut to dry in a straightened manner.

Basic Drying Techniques

1. Gently towel dry hair to remove excess water. Avoid rubbing hair with towel – this creates split ends and frizziness. Detangle hair with a wide-toothed comb or the Straightening/Detangling Pick.
2. Be sure dryer is turned off. Plug dryer into an electrical outlet.
3. Turn the dryer on and set it to a high heat and speed. Remove some of the additional moisture from your hair by briskly blow drying it all over, using your fingers to “comb” through hair.
4. When hair is almost dry, lower the heat and speed to the desired settings and begin to style.
5. Divide hair into manageable sections. Begin at the nape of your neck and brush hair, following the movement of the brush with the dryer. Continue working your way up to your scalp, then to the sides and the front, drying small sections at a time.

Cool Shot: The Cool Shot sets the style by blowing a cool stream of air. Press and hold the cool shot button to set style. Release the button to return to warm air flow.

Hair Care Tips

• Keep the dryer about 8 inches away from your head to avoid burning your scalp or damaging hair.
• Always keep the dryer pointed down the hair shaft to smooth the cuticle and create a silky, shiny style.
• To help prevent heat damage and add shine, spritz damp hair with a heat protection spray before blow drying.
• To create a style with lots of body, apply volumizing mousse to towel dried hair. Distribute it evenly from roots to ends, then blow dry as usual. Hair will be soft, shiny, and full of volume.
• For a quick touch-up between shampoos, mist hair to dampen it, then style with dryer.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Maintenance Instructions

The dryer needs minimum maintenance to ensure the best performance and long life.

• Do not attempt to repair the appliance yourself.
• Keep all intake openings clear of dust accumulation. See “Cleaning Instructions”below. No other maintenance or lubrication is required.
• If the cord becomes twisted due to use, periodically straighten it. Store appliance and cord where they will not be damaged. Do not wrap cord around dryer.

Cleaning Instructions

The air filter should be cleaned regularly, since a dirty or clogged filter will impair the efficiency of the dryer.

1. To clean air filter, make sure dryer is turned off and unplugged.
2. Gently rotate the air inlet grille counter-clockwise while lifting the filter away from the dryer.
3. Use a soft bristle brush to gently remove any particles that are lodged in the filter.
4. If the unit is dirty, wipe it with a damp cloth.
5. To replace the air inlet after cleaning, align locking tabs and rotate clockwise to secure.

Storage

When not in use, unplug the unit. Allow it to cool, and store out of reach of children in a safe, dry location. Never wrap the cord around the appliance. This will cause the cord to wear prematurely and break. Handle the cord carefully, and avoid jerking, twisting, or straining it, especially at plug connections.
