electrical fire.

WHAT TO DO IF HAIR DRYER

ACCIDENTALLY FALLS IN WATER

PLEASE NOTE: When the electrical

elements of the hair dryer come in
contact with water, the Protection
Plus® Plug is designed to shut down
immediately.

1. Be sure to unplug the hair dryer.

2. Remove from water. Once the
appliance is removed from water, it
should be returned to the place of
purchase for exchange.

WHY DO YOU NEED

THE EXTRA PROTECTION OF

THE PROTECTION PLUS® IF

YOUR HOME HAS G.F.C.I.?

The Protection Plus® Plug ser ves as a
supplement to ground fault circuit
interrupters. It is designed to work in
situations where a G.F.C.I. device will
not work.

In general, G.F.C.I. protects the con­sumer against hazardous electrical
shock that may be caused if his or her
body becomes a path through which
electricity travels to reach ground. It is
therefore important to have a G.F.C.I.
in the home.

The Protection Plus® Plug hair dryer
provides an extra margin of safety.
The exclusive water sensing system
works in conjunction with the G.F.C.I.
to sense when the electrical parts of
the hair dryer come in contact with
water and to cut off the flow of elec­tricity. This feature is of particular
importance in ungrounded situations.

Should the dryer go
off and the Protection
Plus® Plug reset but­ton pop up during

Reset

use, this could indi-

button

cate a malfunction in
the dryer. Remove plug from outlet
and allow the dryer to cool. Push in
reset button and reinsert plug into
outlet. Dryer should function normal­ly. If not, return to the place of pur­chase for exchange.

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 a styling br ush,
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 air flow 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.

HIGH-SPEED DRYING
The special high-speed air diffuser is
aerodynamically designed to direct air
more efficiently, while its “fingers” lift
layered hair for ultra-quick texturizing
and styling. Start lifting hair at the
roots with the “fingers” and work your
way down each section of hair, letting
the high-speed diffuser dr y the layers
underneath.

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.
