● Notes
•
Before using the hair dryer, first set the main switch to
position "0", then plug into a power outlet and turn on the
main switch.
•
Negative ions are produced when the main switch is set to
position 1 to 3.
•
Negative ions are invisible to the naked eye.

PanasonicIonicTechnology
The Panasonic Hair Dryer uses negative ions to reduce the
build-up of static electricity and help to keep your hair in
excellent condition by allowing moisture to penetrate into hair.
Notes - The effects of ions might not be felt by the following
people. People with crimpy hair, strong curly hair, very smooth
hair, short hair, or who have had a hair straightening perm in
the last three or four months.
Repairandmaintenanceofthehairdryer
•
Only qualified personnel should repair or disassemble the
hair dryer.
•
If the cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, its service agent, or similarly qualified persons
in order to avoid a hazard.
•
If the cord or plug is damaged, stop using it immediately and
contact an authorized Panasonic service center.

•
When the hair dryer is blowing hot air, occasionally air may
turn cool or sparks may be seen. In such cases, dust may
have accumulated at the air inlet and/or the air outlet. Also,
the air inlet may be being blocked by your hair, hands, etc.
(This phenomenon is the result of the hair dryer's thermal
switch. It is a protective device. The sparks do not pose a
danger in and/or themselves.) Slide the main switch to the "0"
position and remove any dust that has accumulated.

Maintenanceofairoutletandairinlet(oncea
monthormore)
•
To clean the air outlet, set
the main switch to "1", and
rake out with a brush while
cool air is blowing out.
•
To clean the air inlet, set
the main switch to "0" and,
with the airflow stopped, remove dust and hairs using a
brush or vacuum cleaner.
•
Be careful since dust may spray out.
● Maintainingthenegativeionoutlets
If sparks occur inside the negative ion outlets, the electrodes
have become dirty resulting in abnormal discharge. If this
happens, clean the inside of the negative ion outlets.
•
Clean only after turning off the power and removing the cord
from the power outlet.
•
Use a cotton swab to lightly rub (about 5 times) the center of
the part that is inside of the negative ion outlets.
•
We recommend the thin cotton swabs made for use with
babies. Although regular cotton swabs will work, they may be
hard to insert into the outlets.
