For your protection, this unit contains a thermostat that prevents the dryer from overheating. Should the air intake and/or air outlet become blocked or obstructed, the hair dryer will automatically shut off. If this occurs, slide the switch to OFF, unplug and allow dryer to cool. If dryer continues to turn off automatically, discontinue use and contact your authorized Sunbeam Distributor.

CAUTION

Use your Sunbeam hair dryer with care. Directing a high volume of heat continuously to one area can overheat hair and scalp. When using a “High” heat setting, hold the blower opening a few inches away from the hair, drying one section at a time. Work layers of hair in quick strokes. Keep the dryer in motion until drying and styling are complete.
