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 test-
ing procedure, call 800-736-4648.
1.
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.
2.
The dryer is designed to work on ordinary household current only, 125 volts
A.C., 60 Hz. It is not intended for commercial use.
3.
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.
4.
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.

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.
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.
