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.
CHECK ALSO SAFETY FEATURE EVERY TIME YOU USE AN APPLIANCE

This appliance is equipped with an Appliance Leakage Circuit Interrupter (ALCI), a safety feature that renders it inoperable under some abnormal conditions, such as immersion in water. To make sure the ALCI is functioning properly, perform the following test. The purpose of this test is to allow you to make sure the water sensing system  (ALCI) is working.

  1. Plug in the appliance and press the test button on the plug (see diagram).
  2. The appliance will stop working. There will be an audible click and a reset button will pop out. This indicates the ALCI is functioning properly.
  3. To reset ALCI with a reset button, unplug the unit. Then push the reset button in and reinsert the plug into an outlet.
  4. If ALCI is not functioning properly, return the appliance to the service center.
  5. It is important that if immersion occurs, this unit be brought to a service center. Do not try to reset.
  6. Be sure to repeat the test every time you use the unit to confirm ALCI is operational.

Should the appliance go off and the reset button pop up during use, this could indicate a malfunction in the unit. Remove plug from the outlet and allow the appliance to cool.  Reinsert plug into an outlet.
The appliance should then function normally. If not, return it to an authorized Conair Service Center for evaluation and repair.

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 become 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 use the dryer handle without the attachment to remove excess moisture from hair. Use a large-toothed comb to carefully untangle hair. Always start untangling your wet hair at the tips, then gradually work your way up to the scalp. Gentle untangling prevents split ends from forming. You may now finish drying and styling your hair using your hot air styler. Make sure your attachment is locked into place. Plug styler into an outlet. Slide switch to turn the appliance on and off.

TO STYLE HAIR

  2. Select heat setting based on hair type and desired effect.
  3. Place the paddle brush attachment into the hair, close to the roots, and brush through the section.
  4. For added root lift and volume: Place the brush underneath the hair section close to the roots with the bristles pointing upward. Use your other hand to pull the hair section taut against the silicone paddle until the bristles penetrate through the hair.

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 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 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 circuit. Inspect the cord frequently for damage. S top use immediately if the damage is visible or the 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 hot air styler.
