3. Setup

Before first use, please follow these steps:

1. Unpack the hair dryer and all accessories from the packaging.
2. Inspect the appliance for any signs of damage. If damaged, do not use and contact customer support.
3. Ensure your electrical outlet voltage matches the voltage requirements of the hair dryer (typically 120V for North America).
4. Unfold the handle until it locks securely into place.
5. Plug the hair dryer into a standard electrical outlet.

4. Operating Instructions

To use your Vidal Sassoon VS759 Quiet Traveler hair dryer:

1. Power On/Off: Locate the slide switch on the handle. Slide it to the 'I' or 'II' position to turn the dryer on. Slide it to '0' to turn it off.
2. Heat Settings: The dryer offers 2 heat settings. Select the desired heat level using the slide switch. 'I' typically indicates a lower heat/speed setting, and 'II' indicates a higher heat/speed setting.
3. Drying Hair: Hold the hair dryer at a comfortable distance from your hair. Move the dryer continuously to prevent concentrating heat in one area.
4. Quiet Operation: This model is designed for quiet operation, providing a more comfortable drying experience.
5. Folding for Storage: After use, unplug the dryer and allow it to cool. The handle can be folded for compact storage by pressing the release button (if present) or simply folding it back towards the barrel.

5. Maintenance and Care

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and performance of your hair dryer:

• Cleaning the Air Filter: Regularly clean the rear air intake filter to prevent lint and hair buildup, which can restrict airflow and cause overheating. Unplug the dryer before cleaning. Gently remove any accumulated debris with a soft brush or cloth.
• General Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of the hair dryer with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Storage: Store the hair dryer in a cool, dry place. Do not wrap the power cord tightly around the appliance, as this can damage the cord. Hang it by the hanging loop if available.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your hair dryer, refer to the following common solutions:

• No Power:
  • Check if the hair dryer is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet.
  • Verify that the outlet itself is functional by testing it with another appliance.
  • Check the immersion shock safety plug for a reset button and press it if necessary.
• Low Airflow or Overheating:
  • Unplug the dryer and allow it to cool down.
  • Clean the rear air intake filter to remove any lint or hair blockage.
• Unusual Noise:
  • Unplug the dryer and check the air vents for any foreign objects or obstructions.

If the problem persists after trying these steps, please contact customer support.
