GE 106588 instruction manual User Maintenance, For DUAL-VOLTAGE Dryers, For 110-125 Volt Operation

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

FOR DUAL-VOLTAGE DRYERS

For use in the U.S.A., the voltage selector switch should be placed in the 120V position. For use in several countries overseas, the voltage selec- tor may need to be placed in the 240V position. Confirm the voltage avail- able at each overseas location before using the appliance. For connection to a 240-volt supply, use an attachment plug adapter of the proper configura- tion for the power supply.

For 110-125 Volt Operation

Flick the dual voltage switch to the 110-125V position. In this position, the dryer has two settings. It provides two speeds and two heat settings—low speed and low heat on LO and high speed and high heat on HI.

For 220-250 Volt Operation

First put the HI-LO switch into LO. Flick the Dual voltage switch to the 220-250V position. At 220-250V while set at LO, the dryer operates only at high speed with high heat. Do not attempt to operate the HI-LO switch or change to 110-125V when operating on 220-250V. The switches must be set and remain in the LO and 220-250V positions. A plug adapter may be nec- essary in certain countries.

USER

MAINTENANCE

Your dryer is virtually maintenance- free. No lubrication is needed. For proper operating performance, the dryer must be kept clean. When clean- ing 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 overheat- ing 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 dam- age. 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
