...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 permanent 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 circumstances. 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.
13. Do not place appliance on any surface
while it is operating.
14. While using the appliance, keep your
hair out of it. Keep your hair away from
the air inlets.

INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is intended for household
use only. Use on Alternating Current (50/60
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
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 below
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.
