HOW YOUR ANDIS DRYER WITH SHOCK PROTECTION WORKS
This Andis hair dryer has been manufactured with an APPLIANCE LEAKAGE CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER (ALCI). This mechanism will shut the dryer off (making it inoperable) under abnormal conditions, such as falling or being immersed in water. If this appliance becomes inoperable, return it to an Andis Authorized Service Station for examination and repair. The ALCI Shock Protection is equipped with a test and a reset button. Below are instructions on their use.

TEST BEFORE EACH USE

Plug the dryer into a 110-120 volt electrical outlet (ordinary household current). Do not attempt to use any other electrical outlet.
Before attempting to switch the dryer on, perform the following test: Press the test button, the reset button should pop up. This confirms that the safety plug is working properly.
Now press the reset button and your dryer with the Shock Protection in the handle will be operable and the power switch of your dryer may be turned on for normal use.
If this appliance does not operate in the proper functioning condition, it should be either returned to an Andis Authorized Service Station for examination and repair, or discarded.

TO REMOVE AIR INTAKE GRILL
This Andis dryer is equipped with a removable air intake grill. This grill may be removed for ease of cleaning excess hair and lint that can clog up a hair dryer. To remove the grill, simply depress the wing tabs on the side of the grill. To clean grill that has been removed from the dryer, take a small brush and mild cleaning solution and lightly brush away excess lint and hair. Rinse and dry. Once it is completely dry, snap grill back into place.

USE-MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTION

This appliance does not require special maintenance, cleaning or lubrication. Service only through authorized Andis repair stations. Untwist cord before use. After use, re-wrap cord and store unit in a safe place. Do not wrap cord tightly around appliance. Do not hang the unit by the power cord.

CLEANING

The hair dryer must be unplugged before it is cleaned.
Clean the external surfaces of the hair dryer with sponge or soft rag moistened with a mild soap and water solution. Do not use harsh cleaners, detergents, or solvents.
Dry the hair dryer thoroughly before use.

HOW TO BLOW DRY
Towel-pat wet hair to remove excess water and to shorten drying time; untangle hair. Part hair into sections; blow dry hair section by section. Choose setting that is most comfortable and that gives best results. Heat molds and puffs up hair to give it body and fullness. The way you lift and dry damp hair at scalp, and turn the ends, will determine the direction of the hair.
