Your local electrician can help you decide which type is best for you­a portable unit that plugs into the electrical outlet or a permanent unit installed by your electrician. The National Electrical Code now requires GFCI's in bathrooms, garages, and outdoor outlets of all new homes. 3. This appliance is equipped with an automatic thermal limiter, which will cycle off when overheated and come back on when cooled down. If the unit cycles off, unplug the cord for several minutes before restarting. 4. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature. Why do you need a GFCI? Electricity and water don't mix. If your hair dryer falls in water while it's plugged in, the electric shock can kill you ­ even if the switch is "off. " A regular fuse or circuit breaker won't protect you under these circumstances. A GFCI offers you greater protection. A GFCI can save your life! Compared to that, the price is small! Don't wait. . . install one now! *GFCI is a sensitive device that reacts immediately to a small electric current leak by stopping the electricity flow. ProAir® Ionic Features BASIC DRYING TECHNIQUES 1. Gently towel dry hair to remove excess water. Avoid rubbing hair with towel ­this creates split ends and frizziness. Set dryer to a high heat and speed. Remove some of the additional moisture from your hair by briskly blow drying it all over, using your fingers to "comb" through hair. When hair is almost dry, lower the heat and speed settings and begin to style. [. . . ] REMINGTON® SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.
