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 WATT 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.

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 pur- pose 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 appropriate diagram below).

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.

4.If ALCI is not functioning properly, return appliance to nearest service center.

5.It is important that if immersion occurs, this unit be brought to a service center. Do not try to reset.

6.Be sure to repeat test every time you use the unit to confirm ALCI is operational.

Should the appliance go off and the reset but- ton pop up during use, this could indicate a malfunction in the unit. Remove plug from outlet and allow the appliance to cool. Reinsert plug into outlet.

The appliance should then function normally. If not, return to an authorized Conair Service Center for evaluation and repair.

SUPER STYLING GUIDE

Your best looks begin with a good haircut that???s well maintained. Always treat hair right with superior quality shampoos, con- ditioners, 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. Push the ion on switch to turn on the ion generator: clouds of negatively charged ions will help to reduce static elec- tricity, control frizzy flyaways and contribute- to your hair???s shine. Using the dryer along with your styling brush, start at a lower set- ting and 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.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR DRYER

The professional Conair?? ION SHINE dryer is very effective, even at lower temperatures, and helps to give healthier-looking, shiny more manageable hair with maximum styling control. Its powerful professional motor lasts up to 3 times as long as an average motor and gives you a genuine cold shot that ???freezes??? a style into place.

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??? 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.

INTERRUPTERS

...can save a life!

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 perma- nent unit installed by your electrician. The National Electrical Code now requires GFCI???s in the 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 circum- stances. A GFCI offers you far 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 which reacts immediately to a small electric current leak by stopping the electricity flow.

USER

MAINTENANCE

Your dryer is virtually maintenance free. No lubrication is needed. For proper operating performance, the dryer must be kept clean.

When cleaning is needed, unplug the cord, and clean dust and lint from air intake openings with a small brush or the brush attachment of a vacuum cleaner. The outer surface of the dryer should be wiped clean with a cloth only.

Blocked or clogged air intake vents will cause the dryer to overheat. If overheating occurs, an automatic safety device will shut the dryer or the heat off to prevent damage or personal injury. If the unit or the heat turns off, unplug the cord and allow the dryer to cool for 10 to 15 minutes before restarting. Make sure the air vents are clean.

CAUTION

NEVER allow the power supply cord to be pulled, twisted, or severely bent. Never wrap the cord tightly around the dryer. Damage will occur at the high flex point of entry into the dryer, 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 dryer is damaged or does not operate properly, return it for repair to an authorized Conair service representative only. No repairs should be attempted by the consumer.

STORAGE - Important

When not in use, your dryer should be disconnected and stored in a safe, dry location, out of reach of children. Do not wrap line cord around dryer. Allow the cord to hang or lie loose and straight at the point of entry into the dryer.
