CONAIR BC118C Hot Air Brushes
IMPORTANT: Never immerse this product in water or any other liquids.
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 GFCls
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 styler 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 flow.
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 flex point of entry into the hot air styler, causing it to rupture
and short. 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 styler 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 styler 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 styler. Allow the cord to hang or lie loose and straight
at the point of entry into the appliance.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is intended for household use only. Use on Alternating Current
(60 hertz) only. Standard hot air stylers are designed to operate at 110 to
125 volts AC.
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.
NOTE: Do not use this styling appliance on hair extensions.
TOURMALINE CERAMIC TECHNOLOGY
The hot air styler has tourmaline ceramic heat, eliminating damaging hot spots
for beautiful, frizz-free shine.
IONIC TECHNOLOGY
Many aspects of modern living, including air conditioning, contact with man- made fibers and air pollution contribute to a buildup of static electricity in the hair. Even brushing and towel drying the hair, can increase these levels, causing the surface of the cuticle to become rough. Consequently, hair may have a dull appearance. Also high levels of static charge cause hair to be-come flyaway and difficult to style.
The ion generator produces a stream of negative ions that act to neutralize the static charge, smoothing the scales on the cuticle for shiny, smooth and manageable hair, so you can achieve your desired style easily.
THE IONIZING FUNCTION
Generates negative ions to:
- neutralize the generally positive charge on flyaway, frizzy hair
- eliminate static electricity
- contribute to shine
NOTE: The unit may produce a clicking sound at times, which is normal for a high output ion generator.
GETTING STARTED
After shampooing your hair, towel-dry and untangle it carefully with a large- toothed comb. Always start untangling your wet hair at the tips, then gradually work your way up. Gentle untangling prevents split ends from forming. You may now finish drying and styling your hair using your hot air styler. Make sure your desired attachment is locked into place. Plug styler into outlet. Slide switch to turn appliance ON and OFF.
