TIPS

• To create extra volume at the roots of the hair, keep your head upright and place the diffuser against the top of the head. Gently rotate the hairdryer, allowing the diffuser fingers to gently massage the scalp, being careful not to burn the scalp. Dry gently on a medium heat / low speed setting.
  Caution: Do not use the diffuser on the highest heat setting .

STORAGE, CLEANING, AND MAINTENANCE

Let the appliance cool down before cleaning or storing it away.

• To maintain peak product performance and to prolong motor life, it is important to regularly remove any dust and dirt from the inlet grille. 
• Remove the grille as shown (FIG A), clean with a cloth or soft brush, then replace it.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

• Hair Dryer Not Turning On:
  Verify that the power outlet is functioning by plugging in another device. Check that the power cord is fully inserted into both the hair dryer and the wall outlet. Inspect the cord for any visible damage or cuts. If the outlet has a reset button (GFCI outlet), press it to restore power. If the issue persists, the device may require professional service.
• Reduced Airflow or Weak Performance:
  The most common cause is a clogged intake vent or rear grille. Remove the removable rear grille by twisting counterclockwise and clean it with a soft brush or cloth. Use a vacuum with a brush attachment to gently clean the intake vents. Ensure the diffuser is properly attached and not blocking airflow. If airflow remains weak after cleaning, the internal motor may require service.
• Hair Dryer Overheating or Shutting Off:
  The Remington AC5700 Copper Radiance AC Hairdryer includes thermal protection that automatically shuts down if overheating occurs. Allow the device to cool for 15-20 minutes in a well-ventilated area before restarting. Ensure intake vents are clean and unobstructed. Avoid using the highest heat setting continuously for extended periods. If automatic shutdowns continue, contact customer support, as internal components may need inspection.
• Excessive Noise During Operation:
  Some noise is normal for a 2200W hair dryer. However, unusual grinding or rattling sounds indicate loose components. Check that all attachments are securely fastened. Ensure the removable rear grille is properly seated. If noise persists, the device should be inspected by an authorized service center.

Warranty & Support Options:
Most Remington AC5700 units come with a 2-year manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. Register your product with Remington for extended support. Contact Remington customer service through their official website for technical assistance, replacement parts, or warranty claims. Keep your proof of purchase for warranty validation purposes.
