SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

THIS APPLIANCE IS INTENDED FOR HOUSEHOLD USE.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety

feature, the 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 doesn’t fit, contact a qualified

electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature. If this unit shuts itself off,

first press the reset button on the ALCI plug. If it still does not run, the thermal

protectors that are built into this dryer may have operated. If the unit still does not

run after being allowed to cool, return the unit for servicing.

COOL SHOT

This dryer is equipped with a cool shot button.

To achieve the cool shot of air, just press the button

located on the back portion of the handle. The cool

shot is ideal for locking in curl for longer lasting

style. Just concentrate cool air on desired curl

until set.

VOLTAGE SELECTION

First, be sure switch is in the “Off” position before attempting

to change voltage selection. To set to the required voltage,

turn selector until slot is in line with dot above required

voltage marking. For use in the U.S.A., the voltage selector

switch should be placed in the 125 volt position. For use in

several countries overseas, the voltage selector may need to

be placed in the 250 volt position. Confirm the voltage

available at each overseas location before using the

appliance. When operating at 250 volts, the unit will only

work with the switch in position “LOW”. This setting will

provide high heat and high blower speed. Do not try to

operate with the switch in position “HIGH” when operating

at 250 volts. For connection to a 250 volt supply, use an attachment plug adapter

of the proper configuration for the power supply receptacle.

HOW YOUR ANDIS DRYER WITH SHOCK PROTECTION WORKS

This Andis hair dryer has been manufactured with an

APPLIANCE LEAKAGE CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER (ALCI) safety plug.

This mechanism will shut the dryer off (making it inoperable)

under abnormal conditions, such as falling or being immersed in

water. If this appliance becomes inoperable, return it to an Andis

Authorized Service Station for examination and repair. The ALCI

Shock Protection Plug is equipped with a test and a reset button.

Below are instructions on their use.

TEST BEFORE EACH USE

1. Plug the ALCI Shock Protection Plug into a 110-120 volt electrical outlet

(ordinary household current). Do not attempt to use any other electrical outlet.

2. Before attempting to switch the dryer on, perform the following test: Press the

test button, the reset button should pop up. This confirms that the safety plug is

working properly.

3. Now press the reset button and your dryer with the Shock Protection Plug will be

operable and the power switch of your dryer may be turned on for normal use.

4. If this appliance does not operate in the proper functioning condition, it should

be either returned to an Andis Authorized Service Station for examination and

repair, or discarded.

USER MAINTENANCE

• Clean the external surfaces of the hair dryer with sponge or soft rag moistened

with a mild soap and water solution. Do not use harsh cleaners, detergents, or

solvents.

• Dry the hair dryer thoroughly before use.

• Clean screen with vacuum cleaner.

HOW TO BLOW DRY

Towel-pat wet hair to remove excess water and to shorten

drying time; untangle hair. Part hair into sections; blow

dry hair section by section. Choose setting that is most
