•
This product has been designed to operate safely when held by the handle. When operating,
never hold it by the cord, barrel or motor housing.
•
If the cord appears worn or becomes warm during operation, return unit for inspection and
servicing.
•
To avoid possible scalp or hair burns, use HIGH setting only when hair is wet. Reduce to LOW or
COOL as hair becomes drier.
FOR BEST RESULTS
•
To extend the life of your hairdryer, it is advisable to switch it to the lowest setting for a few
seconds before switching it off.
•
For best air flow, hold the hairdryer no closer than six inches from the head.
•
Do not keep the appliance directed at one place; keep it in constant motion. This is especially
important if you are drying a wig, which could be damaged by heat.
HOT / HIGH setting: for initial hair drying and for most hair styling / setting procedures and hair
types.
COOL / LOW setting: for finishing your hairstyle or for styling fragile, damaged, over-processed or
permed hair.
NOTE: Whenever you brush hair and partly blow-dry it against its natural growth pattern, you will
add bulk to your hair and body to the style. After partly drying hair in this manner, you can then
brush and blow style it in the direction you want the finished style to go.
AIR CONCENTRATOR
The air concentrator can be easily attached to the barrel of your hairdryer and allows you to direct
the air flow on a small section of hair at a time as you style and shape your hair with a vent brush or
comb. You can also build body and fullness into fine, thin hair by directing the air flow against the
natural growth pattern of the hair.
FINGER DIFFUSER
After lightly towel-drying the hair, slide the finger diffuser onto the barrel of the hairdryer and set
the hairdryer on LOW or COOL. Place the attachment where volume is desired with the shorter
fingers positioned towards your forehead. Begin to move your hairdryer in small circles, thus
creating volume and body. For smoothing, place the diffuser at your temple with the hairdryer at a
45° angle to your head, and the long fingers at the top; gently move the attachment backwards just
above the ear, gathering up all the hair. Pull downwards toward the ends of the hair to smooth and
untangle.
