INSTRUCTIONS
This product is intended for household use only.
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 cannot be inserted 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.
This appliance is also provided with an ALCI protective device that may make the appliance inoperable under some abnormal conditions (such as immersion of the appliance). If the appliance becomes inoperable, return the appliance to a service center for examination and repair. Every time using the appliance, check the safety plug to verify it is in proper working order. Plug the appliance in an electrical outlet and press the test button. The hair dryer should stop immediately.
To resume operation, press the reset button.

••Drops of water may blow out of the nanoe™ outlet (C) during use, but this is not a malfunction.
••A humming noise may come out of the nanoe™ outlet (C), but this is the sound of nanoe™ being discharged and is not a malfunction.
••The effects of nanoe™ might not be felt by the following people. People with crimpy hair, strong curly hair, very smooth hair, short hair, or who have had a hair straightening perm in the last three or four months.
••You may notice a characteristic odor when using this hair dryer. This is not harmful to the human body.
About nanoe™
What is nanoe™?
(nanoe™ generation method: High-voltage discharge) nanoe™ is charged fine water particles, generated by applying high voltage in order to split water. Its diameter is smaller than 1/100 of steam, and it cannot be seen with the naked eye. Since nanoe™ is generated by collecting water in the air, it may be difficult to generate in certain cases depending on the environment.
(It is harder to collect water in the air when it is cold and humidity is low.)
How nanoe™ works
Generally hair has properties which make it easy to become positively charged with electricity. These properties attract strongly negatively charged nanoe™ which penetrates the hair with moisture. Furthermore, they make the hair slightly acidic, tighten cuticles and keep your hair strong, elastic and healthy.
nanoe™ charge panel
When nanoe™ continues to strike hair, hair becomes negatively charged. As a result, the nanoe™ and negatively charged hair repel each other, making it difficult for nanoe™ to reach hair.
With the nanoe™ Charge System, by just gripping the panel together with the handle, the negative charge accumulated on hair is released.
Because of this, nanoe™ continues to penetrate into hair, supplying moisture and thoroughly moistening down to the tips of hair.
Maintenance of the hair dryer
••Make sure to turn OFF the main switch and disconnect the power plug from the household outlet. (Except when performing maintenance on the air outlet)
Maintaining the hair dryer
Clean the housing only with a soft cloth slightly dampened with tap water or soapy tap water.
►►Notes
••Do not use thinner, benzine, alcohol or other chemicals.
--Doing so may cause malfunction, cracking/discoloration of parts etc.
••Leaving the hair dryer with hair products or makeup still adhered to the handle or body may degrade the plastic, causing discoloration or cracking, and malfunction.

Maintaining the nanoe™ outlet
••Use commercially available cotton swabs. (We recommend the thin cotton swabs made for use with babies.)
••This maintenance allows the hair dryer to sustain the generated level of nanoe™ over a long period.
1. Dampen the end of the cotton swab with tap water.
2. A needle portion is located deep within the nanoe™
outlet. Using the swab, rub
this portion gently about 5 times.
nanoe™ outlet
Maintaining the filter
••At least once a month, when dust etc. has built up, detach the filter from the hair dryer and remove the dust etc. using a toothbrush or vacuum cleaner.
••Use a commercially available toothbrush.
1. Pull on the catch on the |
Filter |
bottom side of the filter to |
|
detach. |
|
2.Remove any dust etc. adhered to the filter or air inlet. ••Remove the dust etc. adhered to the outside of the filter
using a vacuum cleaner. If this does not remove the dust, use the thick part of your fingers to push the dust etc. through the fine mesh on the internal side towards the metal mesh on the external side, and scrub away carefully with a toothbrush.
••Using the toothbrush, carefully scrub away any dust etc. from the internal side of the filter.
••Using a vacuum cleaner or toothbrush, carefully remove any dust etc. adhered to the air inlet.
••Rubbing forcefully with your nails may tear the filter, so please use a toothbrush.
3.Attach the filter securely,
starting with the upper side. ••Keep pressing until you
hear a “click” from both upper and lower catches.

English
Maintaining the air outlet
••The hair dryer should be plugged into the household outlet only in case of maintenance for the air outlet.
••Use a commercially available toothbrush.
••Switch the temperature selector to “Cool” and blow away the
dust etc. as you scrub with the
toothbrush. ••During maintenance, do not
block the air inlet with your hands etc.
••Be careful when using the hair dryer for the first time after maintenance, since it may blow out dust etc.
