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 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 into 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.

ADDITIONAL

INFORMATION

FOR DUAL-VOLTAGE DRYERS

For use in the North America, the voltage selec­tor switch should be placed in the 125 position.
For use in several countries overseas, the volt­age selector may need to be placed in the 250
position. Confirm the voltage available at each
overseas location before using the appliance.

250 volts operation.

INSTRUCTIONS

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance is intended for household use
only. Use on Alternating Current (60 hertz) only.
This dryer is designed to operate at 110 to 125
or 220 to 250 volts AC. See Additional Informa­tion for details.

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 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.

BRUSH/COMB ATTACHMENT STYLING BASICS
& INSTRUCTIONS

Shampoo and condition hair with products of
your choice. Gently towel blot hair to remove ex­cess moisture. Part hair into sections. Follow the
instructions to achieve your desired style. Note:
to prevent overdrying, reduce setting to LOW
when hair is almost dry.

FOR STRAIGHTENING OR RELAXING

Select the brush attachment and set dryer on
HIGH speed. Hold dryer securely in one hand
and use brush to firmly grasp a section of hair
at roots. Roll hair around brush with one turn of
your wrist, then pull downward. Continue pro­cess until hair is dry. Repeat the above with each
hair section.

FOR EXTRA VOLUME

Select the comb attachment and set dryer on dry
speed. Hold dryer securely in one hand and use
a natural combing action to fluff hair, beginning
at the roots. Move from section to section until
hair is dry.

The Styler Dryer is perfect for shorter hair
styles on men and women.

FOR CREATING FULLNESS

Select the brush attachment and set dryer on
HIGH speed. Starting at the nape of the neck,
first lift hair up and away from the scalp with
the brush, then rotate the brush downward to
the ends. Move from section to section until hair
is dry.

For connection to a 240-volt supply, use an at­tachment plug adapter of the proper configura­tion for the power supply.

FOR 110-125 VOLT OPERATION

Flick the dual voltage switch to the 125 position.
In this position, the dryer has two settings. It pro­vides two speeds and two heats—low speed and
low heat on LOW and high speed and high heat
on HIGH.

FOR 220-250 VOLT OPERATION

First put the HIGH-LOW switch into LOW. Flick the
Dual voltage switch to the 250 position. At 220­250V while set at LOW, the dryer operates only
at high speed with high heat. Do not attempt

to operate the HIGH-LOW switch or change to
125 when operating on 220-250V. The switches
must be set and remain in the LOW and 250
positions. A plug adapter may be necessary in

certain countries.

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 damp 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 cycles 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 vis-

ible 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.
