GROUND FAULT
CIRCUIT INTERRUPTERS
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 bathroom, 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 the
dryer is 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.

ENGLISH
This appliance is intended for household use.
Use on Alternating Current (60 Hz) 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 does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse
the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified technician. Do
not attempt to defeat this safety feature.

CHECK ALCI EVERY TIME YOU USE THIS HAIR DRYER
This hair dryer 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 and the exclusive
water sensing system (ALCI) is working, perform the following test:
1. Plug in the hair dryer and press
the test button on the plug.
2. The hair dryer will stop working.
There will be an audible click and
the reset button will pop out
3. To reset the ALCI with a Reset
button: Unplug the unit. Then
push the Reset button in, and
reinsert the plug into the outlet.
4. Be sure to repeat the test every time you use this hair dryer to
confirm the ALCI is operational.
5. If the ALCI is not functioning properly, return the hair dryer to a
service center.
6. If a water immersion occurs, bring this unit into a service
center. Do not try to reset.
Should the dryer go off and the Reset button pop out during
use, this could indicate a malfunction in the dryer. Remove the
plug from the outlet and allow the dryer to cool. Reset the ALCI.
Reinsert the plug into the outlet. The dryer should function
normally. If not, return it to a service center for examination and
repair.
