...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 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 in 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.
LIMITED ONE YEAR WARRANTY
Conair will repair or replace, at our option, your
appliance free of charge for 12 months from the
date of purchase if the appliance is defective in
workmanship or materials.
To obtain service under this warranty, return the
defective product to the service centre nearest you,
together with your sales slip and $7.50 for postage
and handling.
ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES, OBLIGATIONS, OR
LIABILITIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILI-
TY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE,
SHALL BE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE 12
MONTH DURATION OF THIS WARRANTY.
IN NO EVENT SHALL CONAIR BE LIABLE FOR
ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUEN-
TIAL DAMAGES FOR BREACH OF THIS OR ANY
OTHER WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED,
WHATSOEVER.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and
you may also have other rights which vary from
province to province.

IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
When using electrical appliances, especially
when children are present, basic safety
precautions should always be followed,
including the following:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE USING
KEEP AWAY FROM WATER
DANGER – Any hair dryer is electrically
live even when the switch is off:
To reduce the risk of death or injury by
electric shock:
1. Always “unplug it” immediately after using.
2. Do not use while bathing or in a shower.
3. Do not place or store appliance where it
can fall or be pulled into a tub or sink.
4. Do not place in, or drop into, water or
other liquid.
5. If an appliance falls into water, “unplug it”
immediately. Do not reach into the water.
WARNING – To reduce the risk of burns,
electrocution, fire, or injury to persons:
1. This appliance should never be left
unattended when plugged in.
2. Close supervision is necessary when this
appliance is used by, on, or near children
or individuals with certain disabilities.
3. Use this appliance only for its intended
use as described in this manual. Do not
use attachments not recommended by the
manufacturer.
4. Never operate this appliance if it has a
damaged cord or plug, if it is not working
properly, if it has been dropped, damaged,
or dropped into water. Return the appliance
to a Conair service center for examination
and repair.
5. Keep the cord away from heated
surfaces. Do not pull, twist, or wrap line cord
around dryer, even during storage.
6. Never block the air openings of the
appliance or place it on a soft surface, such
as a bed or couch, where the air openings
may be blocked. Keep the air openings free
of lint, hair, and the like.
7. Never use while sleeping.
8. Never drop or insert any object into any
opening or hose.
9. Do not use outdoors or operate where
aerosol (spray) products are being used
or where oxygen is being administered.
10. Do not use an extension cord to
operate dryer.
11. Do not direct hot air toward eyes or other
heat-sensitive areas.
12. Attachments may be hot during use.
Allow them to cool before handling.
13. Do not place appliance on any surface

SAVE THESE
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 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.
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 air flow 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 air
flow 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.
