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.

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 APPLIANCE.

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.

1.Plug in the appliance and press test button on plug (See appropriate diagram below).

2.The appliance will stop working. There will be an audible click and reset button will pop out.

3.To reset ALCI with a reset button, unit should be unplugged. Then push reset button in, and reinsert plug into outlet.

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 but- ton pop up during use, this could indicate a malfunction in the unit. Remove plug from outlet and allow the appliance to cool. Reinsert plug into outlet.

The appliance should then function normally. If not, return to an authorized Conair Service Center for evaluation and repair.

SUPER STYLING GUIDE

Your best looks begin with a good haircut that’s well maintained. Always treat hair right with superior quality shampoos, con- ditioners, 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. Push the ion on switch to turn on the ion generator: clouds of negatively charged ions will help to reduce static elec- tricity, control frizzy flyaways and contribute- to your hair’s shine. Using the dryer along with your styling brush, start at a lower set- ting and 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.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR DRYER

The professional Conair® ION SHINE dryer is very effective, even at lower temperatures, and helps to give healthier-looking, shiny more manageable hair with maximum styling control. Its powerful professional motor lasts up to 3 times as long as an average motor and gives you a genuine cold shot that ‘freezes’ a style into place.

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.
