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 testing procedure, call 800-736-4648.

5. 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.

6. The dryer is designed to work on ordinary household current only, 125 volts A.C., 60 Hz. It is not intended for commercial use.

7. 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.

8. 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.

Overheat Protection
In the event of overheating, the appliance may either stop unexpectedly or start to blow cold air. Overheating is usually caused by a blocked grill/filter. If this happens, immediately unplug the appliance and refer to STORAGE, CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE to clean the grill/filter. If, after doing this overheating continues to happen, stop using the appliance and contact Customer Service.

Hair Care Tips

• For fast drying, use the high heat / high speed settings.

• To create smooth styles use the concentrator and a round hair brush (not included) whilst drying.

• To enhance natural curls and waves, attach the diffuser to the dryer. Turn your head upside down and gently place your hair into the diffuser bowl slightly rotating the dryer as you style.

• To create extra volume at the roots of the hair, keep your head upright and place the diffuser against the top of the head. Gently rotate the hairdryer allowing the diffuser fingers to gently massage the scalp being careful not to burn the scalp. Dry gently on a medium heat / low speed setting.
  Caution: Do not use the diffuser on the highest heat setting.

• To set your style, select the cool shot setting while styling.

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.

Let the appliance cool down before cleaning and storing

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

*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.

GFCI is a sensitive device that reacts immediately to a small electric current leak by stopping the electricity flow.
