5. Operating Instructions
- Power On: Turn the main power switch to the "ON" position. The dryer will start with a low airflow setting.
- Adjust Airflow: Use the variable speed control knob to increase or decrease the airflow intensity. Start with a lower setting for sensitive areas or smaller pets, gradually increasing as needed.
- Heat Control: The dryer utilizes motor-warmed air. There is no separate heating element switch on this model (B-27). The air temperature will naturally increase as the motor operates.
- Drying Technique: Hold the nozzle a safe distance from the pet's skin, typically 6-12 inches, and move it continuously to avoid concentrating heat in one area. Work in sections, drying the coat thoroughly.
- Power Off: Once drying is complete, turn the variable speed control knob to the "OFF" position. Unplug the unit from the power outlet.
