This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfuncon or breakdown, grounding provides a
path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance is
equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug
must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances.

This appliance is for use on a
nominal 115V circuit, and has a
grounding plug that looks like the
plug illustrated in sketch A. Make
sure that the appliance is
connected to an outlet having the
same configuraon as the plug. No
adaptor should be used with this
appliance.

PART LIST

MAINTENANCE
IMPORTANT!
Always turn off the unit and disconnect from electrical outlet before maintenabce or cleaning.
Product Maintenance:
1. To keep the Pet Dryer, use a damp cloth to wipe the surface of the housing. Removable part(s)
and filters may be cleaned with water and dried thoroughly before reassembling.
2. When not in use, unplug and store the Pet Dryer in a dry place indoors and keep out of reach of
children.
Cleaning Filters and Rear Cover:
The B-8S Pet Dryer has two washable filters - Inlet Filter and Motor Filter. The Inter filter is located
on one side of dryer (rather than the side with hose). Open the rear cover to find motor filter. Both
filters should be kept clean regularly. If the filters are coated with too much hair or dirt, the air
output of the Dryer will be reduced, and this may cause damage to the motors or cause the motors
to overheat. You should never operate the dryer without filters in place.
