...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 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 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 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.

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 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.
DRYING BASICS
1. Shampoo and condition hair with products
of your choice. Rinse thoroughly. Towel blot
hair to remove excess moisture. Section
hair. Using the dryer along with your styling
brush, 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 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 with Cool Shot feature 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” 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.
