INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is intended for household use
only. Use on Alternating Current (60 hertz)
only. Standard Dryers are designed to operate
at 110 to 125 volts A.C. For special dual volt-
age dryers, see Additional Information.
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.
IMPORTANT
1875 WATTS OPERATING GUIDE
Use of this dryer on the same circuit or fuse
with other electrical products or appliances
may trip a 15 amp circuit breaker or blow a 15
amp fuse. NEVER replace the fuse with one
rated higher than the capacity of the circuit.
Doing so could result in an electrical fire.
STYLING GUIDE
1. Towel blot hair to remove excess moisture.
Section hair. Using the dryer along with your
styling brush, direct hot air through a section of
hair at a time. Move dryer steadily across each
section so that the hot air passes through hair.
Direct air flow at hair, not scalp.
2. Keep dryer’s air intake vents unobstructed
and free from hair while drying.
3. To avoid over drying, do not concentrate
heat on any one section for any length of
time. Keep dryer moving as you style.
4. For quick touch ups between shampoos,
dampen hair with a mist of water before
styling with the dryer.
5. When using your dryer to create curls and
waves, dry hair almost completely on a
warmer temperature setting, then finish
styling with Cool Shot feature to close hair
shaft and lock in style.
BODY & VOLUME
To create extra volume, turn head upside
down while drying. Position the air flow
toward the roots for maximum lift. When hair is
dry, toss head back and brush hair into place.
STRAIGHTENING
Work with hair in sections when creating a
super straight look. Using a large round brush
(approximately 2" in diameter), hold hair taut
in each section and bend ends slightly under
as you dry.
MAKING WAVES
Tousled, natural-looking waves are easily
created by grasping hair at the roots and
scrunching between fingertips while drying.
