into a tub or sink.

1. An appliance should never be left unattended when plugged in.
2. Close supervision is necessary when this appliance is used by, on,

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
FOLDING HANDLE
This hair dryer comes from the factory with the handle in the folded
position. Be sure the dryer is unplugged from the electrical outlet and
the barrel is cool before folding and unfolding the handle.
ALCI
1. As a safety feature, this dryer has a polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other) and it will fit into a polarized outlet only
one way. Be sure to match the wider blade to the wider outlet
opening. If the plug does not fit all the way into the outlet, do
not force it. Instead, reverse the plug. If it still will not fit, contact
a qualified electrician.
2. This hair dryer is equipped with an ALCI safety circuit. Test
the ALCI unit before each use. Plug it into a wall outlet and
press the ALCI test button. The red reset button should pop
out from surface.
3. Press the reset button again to restore power.
4. If the reset button fails to pop out, check the plug connection.
If the problem persists, do not use the appliance.
5. The ALCI unit reduces the risk of electric shock from ground fault
currents. It does not provide protection against electric shock due
to physical contact with the electrical (wall) outlet, or faulty wiring
within the electrical (wall) outlet.
6. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not tamper with
or immerse the plug.
VOLTAGE SELECTION
This unit has a dual voltage adjustment so it can be used in both North
America and overseas. Before using, make sure the voltage selector is
correctly positioned to correspond with the supply voltage of the country
