Features a CD/DVD destroyer:
1) Hold the CD/DVD by the edge and feed one at a time,
releasing when shredding begins.
2) Shredder will stop when the entire disc has been destroyed.
The shredder does not work at all.
a) Make sure the unit is plugged in and that the outlet it is plugged into is in good working order.
b) In the event that the shredder is run continuously for too long and the motor overheats, a thermal
overload switch will automatically shut the power off. If this happens, move the switch to the off
position for 30 minutes or more before continuing.
The shredder runs in "Rev" mode but not in "Auto" mode.
a)
While in "Auto" mode, the motor will not start running until paper is inserted into the
feed slot.
Set the unit to "Auto" and insert paper to be shredded. It is normal for the motor to run for
a moment after setting it to "Auto" but it should stop until paper is inserted. The trigger that activates the
shredder in Auto mode is located directly in the center of the slot. If the paper you are inserting is narrow,
it may not be hitting the switch. It is possible that the trigger, which activates the shredder, has become
blocked with paper. Insert an index card, directly in the center of the feed slot, and apply force. This
will usually clear any paper blocking the switch and force the switch closed.
