OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is intended for household use only. Use on
Alternating Current (60 hertz) only. Standard hot air brushes
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.
CHECK ALCI SAFETY FEATURE EVERY TIME
YOU USE 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 test button on plug (see
below picture).
2. The appliance will stop working. There will be an audible
click and reset button will pop out.
3. To reset ALCI with a reset button, unit should be
unplugged. Then push reset button in and reinsert plug into
outlet.
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.
CAUTION
NEVER allow the power supply cord to be pulled, twisted, or
severely bent. Never wrap the cord tightly around the hot air
brush. Damage will occur at the high flex point of entry into the
hot air brush, 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 brush is damaged or does not operate
properly, contact the service center for examination and
repair. No repairs should be attempted by the consumer.
STORAGE – IMPORTANT
When not in use, your hot air brush 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 brush. Allow
the cord to hang or lie loose and straight at the point of entry
into the hot air brush.
Tourmaline Ceramic Technology
The barrels deliver even, tourmaline ceramic heat, eliminating
damaging hot spots for beautiful frizz-free shine.
3 Heat/Speed Settings
Low Setting: This position combines ideal air flow and
temperature setting for shaping finer, damaged or treated hair.
High Setting: Combines ideal airflow with higher temperature,
especially recommended for pre-drying, and also for styling
thick hair.
Cool Setting: Using the cool setting at the end sets the style
for a long-lasting effect.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

electrically
live even when switch is off. To reduce the risk of death by
electric shock:
• Always unplug this appliance from the electrical outlet
immediately after using.
• DO NOT use while bathing or in the shower.
• DO NOT place or store this appliance where it can fall or be
pulled into a tub or sink.
• DO NOT place or drop into water or other liquid.
• DO NOT reach for an appliance that has fallen into water.
Unplug it immediately. Do not reach into the water.
• Unplug this appliance before cleaning it.
something that may burn easily.
• DO NOT use this dryer to dry a wig (or brush) that has been
cleaned in something that may burn if it may still have some of
the cleaner on or in it.
KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS•
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.
• This appliance features a polarized plug with one blade
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.
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.
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, contact the
manufacturer.
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, contact the manufacturer. Never operate this appliance
if it has been dropped in water.
If you must use your hot air brush 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.
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.
