Operating Instructions

1. Plug In: Insert the power plug into an appropriate electrical outlet.
2. Select Heat/Speed: Use the switch on the handle to select your desired heat and speed setting:
   • 0: Off
   • I: Low heat/speed
   • II: High heat/speed
3. Drying Hair: Direct the airflow towards your hair, keeping the dryer moving to prevent concentrating heat in one area. For best results, use the concentrator nozzle for precise styling.
4. Finishing: Once drying is complete, switch the dryer to '0' (off) and unplug it from the power outlet.

Maintenance

• Cleaning the Air Filter: Regularly check the rear filter for dust and lint buildup. To clean, ensure the dryer is unplugged and cool. Gently twist or pull off the rear filter cover (if removable) and brush away any debris. Replace the filter cover securely. A clogged filter can reduce performance and lead to overheating.
• Storage: When not in use, ensure the dryer is cool and unplugged. Fold the handle for compact storage. Store in a dry, safe place, out of reach of children. Do not wrap the power cord around the dryer, as this can damage the cord.
