Operating Instructions

Follow these steps for effective hair drying and styling:

Drying Basics

1. Shampoo and condition hair with products of your choice. Rinse thoroughly. Towel blot hair to remove excess moisture.
2. Section hair. Using the dryer along with your styling brush, direct hot air through a section of hair at a time. Move dryer steadily across each section so that the hot air passes through hair. Direct air flow at hair, not scalp.
3. Keep dryer's air intake vents unobstructed and free from hair while drying.
4. To avoid over drying, do not concentrate heat on any one section for any length of time. Keep dryer moving as you style.
5. For quick touch ups between shampoos, dampen hair with a mist of water before styling with the dryer.
6. When using your dryer to create curls and waves, dry hair almost completely on a warmer temperature setting, then finish styling with Cool Shot feature to close hair shaft and lock in style.

Making Waves

Tousled, natural-looking waves are easily created by grasping hair at the roots and scrunching between fingertips while drying.

Body & Volume

To create extra volume, turn head upside down while drying. Position the air flow toward the roots for maximum lift. When hair is dry, toss head back and brush hair into place.

Straightening

Work with hair in sections when creating a super straight look. Using a large round brush (approximately 2" in diameter), hold hair taut in each section and bend ends slightly under as you dry.

Maintenance and Care

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and performance of your Conair Travel Hair Dryer.

• Cleaning the Air Filter: Regularly clean the rear air filter to prevent lint and hair buildup, which can reduce airflow and cause overheating. Ensure the dryer is unplugged before cleaning.
• Storage: When not in use, the dryer should be disconnected and stored in a safe, dry location, out of reach of children. Do not wrap the cord around the dryer, as this can cause premature wear and breakage of the cord. Store with the handle folded for compact storage.
• General Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of the dryer with a damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
