Troubleshooting & Error Codes

Maintenance/Cleaning: Reduction in Airflow or Overheating

A change in airflow or air power, airflow blockages, overheating, and/or visible buildup on the back of the unit indicates your hair dryer needs to be cleaned. We recommend using a small brush (not included) to clean off the back of the hair dryer. ?️

ALCI Operation

Symptom: Electricity flickers or trips circuit breaker during use.

This dryer is equipped with an Appliance Leakage Circuit Interrupter (ALCI), a safety feature that renders it inoperable under abnormal conditions. Should the dryer turn off in use, press the red Reset button on the plug and the dryer should function normally. If the dryer does not reset, please check your circuit breaker. If the issue persists, ensure there are no other appliances plugged in within the room where the dryer is being used. Do not use the dryer with a power strip.

Overheating

Symptom: Hair dryer is overheating or shuts off.

This unit is equipped with a temperature-protective thermostat. If for some reason your hair dryer overheats, the thermostat will automatically turn the unit off. To prevent power-down recurrence, unplug the hair dryer and set it aside to cool, or cool down using the cool shot button during use. Overheating may result if the unit is powered on for a long duration, or can indicate a blockage or dust buildup. We recommend using a small brush (not included) to clean off the back of your unit. ?️ If overheating continues to occur, contact a service center.
