OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is intended for house-
hold use only. Use on Alternating
Current (50/60 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.
IMPORTANT
1875 WATT OPERATING GUIDE
Use of this dryer on the same circuit
or fuse with other electrical products
or appliances may trip a 15 amp cir-
cuit 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.
WHAT TO DO IF HAIR DRYER
ACCIDENTALLY FALLS IN WATER
PLEASE NOTE: When the electrical
elements of the hair dryer come in
contact with water, the Protection
Plus® Plug is designed to shut down
immediately.
1. Be sure to unplug the hair dryer.
2. Remove from water. Once the
appliance is removed from water, it
should be returned to the place of
purchase for exchange.
Remember: Do not use the hair dryer
after it has fallen into the water.
WHY DO YOU NEED
THE EXTRA PROTECTION OF
THE PROTECTION PLUS® IF
YOUR HOME HAS G.F.C.I.?
The Protection Plus® Plug serves as a
supplement to ground fault circuit
interrupters. It is designed to work in
situations where a G.F.C.I. device will
not work.
In general, G.F.C.I. protects the con-
sumer against hazardous electrical
shock that may be caused if his or her
body becomes a path through which
electricity travels to reach ground. It is
therefore important to have a G.F.C.I.
in the home.
