This appliance is intended for household use. Use on Alternating Current (60 Hertz) only. This appliance is designed to operate at 110 to 125 volts AC or 220 to 250 volts AC. 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, re

USER MAINTENANCE
Your appliance is virtually maintenance free. For proper performance, the appliance must be kept clean. Blocked or clogged air intake vents will cause the appliance to overheat. When cleaning is needed, unplug the cord and clean dust and lint from air intake openings with a small brush attachment.
The outer surface of the appliance should be wiped clean with a damp cloth only. If abnor
­mal conditions occur, unplug the appliance, allow it to cool and return it for repair to an au
­thorized service representative only. No repairs should be attempted by the consumer.
CAUTION — NEVER allow the power supply
cord to be pulled or twisted. Never wrap the cord around the appliance. Damage will occur at the high flex point of entry into the appliance causing it to rupture and short.
Inspect the cord frequently for damage. STOP USE IMMEDIATELY if damage is visible or if unit stops or operates intermittently.
STORAGE
When not in use, your appliance should be dis­connected and stored in a safe, dry
location out of reach of children. Do not wrap the line cord around the appliance. Allow the cord to hang or lie loose and straight at the point of entry into the appliance.
HOW TO STYLE WITH YOUR HOT
AIR CURLING IRON / BRUSH
HOT AIR CURLING IRON
Apply mousse or light gel evenly through hair. Partially dry hair by blow drying or letting hair dry naturally.
Page 4
When hair is almost dry, separate hair into small sections and, with the 1½” Hot Air Curl
­ing Iron, make 1 & ½ turns to create soft, open curls. Direct each curl in a slightly different angle. Lightly mist with finishing spray.
HOT AIR BRUSH
Partially dry hair by either blow-drying or letting the hair dry naturally. When hair is almost dry, use the 1½” Hot Air Brush to create lift, volume and large, soft curls.
Beginning at the crown area, take a sec
­tion of hair and place the 1½” Hot Air Brush near the root area. Slide the hot air brush toward the ends, then wind toward the root area. Hold for approximately 10 seconds, then gently unwind the hair without tension. Continue throughout the hair until all the hair has been curled.
NOTE: To achieve maximum body, fullness and curl, apply styling gel to the root area and styling mousse to the ends. Then take small sections of the hair, and curl it with the 1½” Hot Air Brush.

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.

Everyone knows that electricity and water are a dangerous combination. But did you know that an electrical appliance is still electrically live even if the switch is off? If the plug is in, the power is on. So when you are not using your appliances, keep them unplugged.
ALWAYS UNPLUG

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
FOR DUAL-VOLTAGE APPLIANCE
For use in 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. 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 125 position. In this position, the dryer has two set
­tings. It provides two speeds and two heats - low speed and low heat on LO and high speed and high heat on HI.
For 220-250 Volt Operation
First put the HI-LO switch into LO. Flick the dual voltage switch to the 250 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 125 when operating on 220-250V. The switches must be set and remain in the LO and 250 positions. A plug adapter may be necessary in
certain countries.
