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.
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.
SUPER STYLING GUIDE
Your best looks begin with a good haircut
that’s well maintained. Always treat hair right
with superior quality shampoos, conditioners,
and finishing products.
DRYING BASICS
1. Shampoo and condition hair with products
of your choice. Rinse thoroughly. Towel blot
hair to remove excess moisture. Section hair.
2. The ion generator will reduce static
electricity, control frizzy flyaways and
contribute to your hair’s shine. The dual ionic
ports give you great ion coverage for best
styling results.
3. If you use the dryer with a styling brush
(the professional way to style and dry at the
same time), brush each strand from under-
neath as you direct hot air to top of strand,
always moving slowly and steadily up and
down each strand. This way, you’ll be aiming
heat at your hair, not at your scalp.
4. To speed up the drying and styling process,
push the red turbo button: airflow speed will
increase; the greater air velocity helps to dry
your hair faster.
5. For quick touchups between shampoos,
mist hair to dampen it before styling with dryer.
6. When using your dryer to create curls and
waves, dry hair almost completely on the low
temperature setting, then set your style by
using the cool shot for a perfect finish.

ION SHINE
™
1875 Watts dryer is
very effective, even at lower temperatures, and
helps to produce healthier-looking, shiny more
manageable hair.
THE IONIZING FUNCTION generates a cloud
of negative ions that can:
• neutralize the generally positive charge
on flyaway, frizzy hair
• eliminate static electricity
• contribute to shine
