- Gently twist or pull off the rear grille/filter cover.
- Use a soft brush (e.g., an old toothbrush) or a dry cloth to remove any accumulated debris from the filter mesh.
- Reattach the grille/filter cover securely. Perform this cleaning regularly, especially if you notice reduced airflow.
- Cleaning the Exterior: Wipe the exterior surface of the hair dryer with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish. Never immerse the appliance in water or any other liquid.
