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. For special dual voltage
dryers, see Additional Information.
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.
STYLING GUIDE
1. Towel blot hair to remove excess moisture.
Section hair. Using the dryer along with
your styling brush, direct hot air through
one section of hair at a time. Move dryer
steadily across each section so that the hot
air passes through hair. Direct airflow at hair,
not scalp.
2. Keep dryer’s air intake vents unobstructed
and free from hair while drying.
3. To avoid overdrying, 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 on the cool setting to close hair shaft and
lock in style.
BODY & VOLUME
To create extra volume, turn head upside down
while drying. Position the airflow 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" in 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.

dual voltage for world-wide travel.

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 GFCIs 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 imme
diately 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 125V
position. For use in several countries overseas,
the voltage selector may need to be placed in
the 250V position. Confirm the voltage available at each overseas location before using the
appliance. For connection to a 250 volt supply,
use an attachment plug adapter of the proper
configuration for the power supply receptacle.
For 110-125 Volt Operation
Flick the dual voltage switch to the 125V position.
In this position, the dryer operates on all available
heat and speed settings.
For 220-250 Volt Operation
First put the HI-LO switch on LO. Flick the
dual voltage switch to the 250V position. At
220-250V while set at LO, the dryer operates
only at high speed with high heat. Do not
attempt to operate the HI-LO switch or change
to 110-125V when operating on 220-250V. The
switches must be set and remain in the LO and
250V positions. A plug adapter may be neces-
sary in certain countries.
Blocked or clogged air intake 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.
USER
MAINTENANCE
Your dryer is virtually maintenance-free. No
lubrication is needed. For proper operating
performance, the dryer must be kept clean.
Blocked or clogged air intake vents will
cause the dryer to overheat. When cleaning is
needed, unplug the cord, let it cool 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.
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 the
nearest service centre. No repairs should be
attempted by the consumer.
STORAGE
When not in use, your dryer should be disconnected, allowed to cool and stored in a safe,
dry location, out of reach of children. Do not
wrap line cord around dryer.
