INSTRUCTIONS
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 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, 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.
CHECK ALCI SAFETY FEATURE
EVERY TIME YOU USE DRYER
This appliance is equipped with an Appliance
Leakage Circuit Interrupter (ALCI), a safety feature
that renders it inoperable under some abnormal
conditions, such as immersion in water.
To make sure the ALCI is functioning properly, per-
form the following test. The purpose of this test is to
allow you to make sure the water sensing system
(ALCI) is working.
1. Plug in the appliance and press test button
on plug.
2. The appliance will stop working. There will
be an audible click and the reset button will
pop out. This indicates the ALCI is functioning
properly.
3. To reset ALCI, unit should be unplugged. Then
push reset button in and reinsert plug into out-
let.

Test
4. If ALCI is not functioning properly, return
appliance to nearest service center.
5. It is important that if immersion occurs, this
unit be brought to a service center. Do not try
to reset.
6. Be sure to repeat test every time you use the
unit to confirm ALCI is operational.
Should the appliance go off and the reset
button pop up during use, this could indicate
a malfunction in the unit. Remove plug from
outlet and allow the hair dryer to cool. Reinsert
plug into outlet.
The appliance should then function normally.
If not, return it to an authorized Conair Service
Center for examination and repair.
SUPER STYLING GUIDE
Your best looks begin with a good haircut that’s
well maintained. Always treat hair right with supe-
rior quality shampoos, conditioners, and finishing
products.
DRYING BASICS
1. Shampoo and condition hair with products of
your choice. Rinse thoroughly. Towel-dry 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 over-drying, 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 maxi-
mum lift. When hair is dry,
gently 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.

NTERRUPTERS
...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 bath-
rooms, 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!
*A GFCI is a sensitive device that 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 perfor-
mance, 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, allow to 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.
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 circuit. 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 to the place of purchase with
sales receipt. See following Warranty information.
No repairs should be attempted by the consumer.
STORAGE
When not in use, your dryer should be discon-
nected, allowed to cool, and stored in a safe, dry
location, out of reach of children. Do not wrap
line cord around dryer.
