• For thorough cleaning, detach the bonnet and wash it according to the manufacturer’s instructions if it’s removable.

Cleaning the Air Vents

No Heat

Uneven Drying

• If you notice persistent uneven drying, the bonnet or the hair dryer’s airflow system may require inspection or maintenance.

Excessive Noise

Frequent Overheating

• Ensure that the hair dryer is not being used for extended periods beyond its recommended usage time.
• Avoid using the hair dryer in high-temperature environments or conditions that may lead to overheating.
• If frequent overheating occurs, consult the user manual for recommended usage durations and consider allowing longer cooldown periods between uses.

Safety Plug Tripped

• If the hair dryer’s safety plug trips frequently, it may be due to power surges or electrical issues in your home.
• Reset the safety plug by pressing the reset button, typically located on the plug itself.
• If tripping continues, consult an electrician to inspect your home’s electrical system for any underlying problems.
