Introduction
Thank you for choosing this Shredder from Rexel. We are sure it will serve you well, but please take a little time to read these
instructions to ensure you get the best out of your machine.
Safety First
1.
Please store this instruction manual in a safe place for future reference.
2.
Please pay close attention to the safety symbols on the top of the shredder and operate the machine accordingly.
3.
If the shredder needs cleaning, unplug the unit from the power socket and use a damp cloth. NB. Do not use any cleaning
products to clean the unit.
4.
Do not position the unit near to an object that radiates heat.
5.
Do not place the unit in a damp environment.
6.
Take care not to splash any liquid onto the machine.
7.
Return the product and proof of purchase with receipt to the store at which it was purchased if…
- The power cable or plug is broken.
- The machine malfunctions because liquid was accidentally spilt onto the machine.
- The shredder doesn’t operate despite following the guidelines in the manual.
8.
Make sure the power cable isn’t a trip hazard.
9.
Please ensure the power supply is compatible with the requirements of the machine (220-240V 50Hz).
10. To avoid risk of injury, do not open the machine’s casing to attempt DIY repair. Any attempted repair by an unqualified
person will invalidate the warranty.

Preparation before use
How to use the shredder correctly:
1.
Take care not to insert fingers, ties or other objects into the entry slot of the shredder.
2.
Try to avoid paper clips, staples, laminating materials, plastic bags etc. from being passed through the shredder. This will
prevent damage to the cutters.
3.
Do not shred wet paper as it can tangle in the cutters.
4.
Do not shred more than the stated sheet capacity in one pass.
5.
Do not shred continuously for more than 3 minutes at a time. Running the unit for too long may make the motor overheat. If
the motor over heats, allow it to cool down for at least 30 minutes before resuming use.
6.
Do not use the “REV”
(
)
(reverse) function if it’s not necessary. Over use of the “REV”
(
)
function can result in
shredded paper becoming jammed in the entry slot, which will adversely affect the performance of the shredder.
Correct operating procedure (fig 2)
1.
Insert plug into the AC power socket.
2.
Check the shredder bin is fully closed.
3.
Push the switch to the ON/AUTO position (standby mode)
4.
When not in use, push the switch to the O (off position)
Auto shred and stop
- Place the paper or credit card into the centre of the entry slot - shredding will start automatically (fig 3).
- Paper smaller than A4 in width should be placed in the middle of the entry slot to ensure the shredder works automatically.
- The cutters will stop rotating automatically after finishing shredding
- Do not shred more than the stated sheet capacity at a time.
- If too many sheets are inserted at a time, the shredder can become jammed. If the shredder becomes jammed, switch
the button to REV
(
)
position to clear the jam by reversing the paper. If the paper has become so entangled in the
cutter that it can't be reversed, turn off the power and pull out the paper by hand. Restart with fewer sheets and feed the
non-shredded end of the paper in first.
CAUTION:
Do not shred continuously for more than 3 minutes. When the motor has overheated, the thermal safety switch will start
working automatically. If the thermal switch trips, do not use the machine for about 30 minutes while the thermal sensitive
safety switch cools down so the shredder can be safely used again.
Emptying the pull-out waste bin (fig 4)
Empty the shredder bin when the shredder paper is visible through the viewing window on the side of the pullout bin.
1.
Pull out the shredder bin (fully).
2.
Empty the shredder bin into a waste sack.
3.
Push the shredder bin back in ensuring it is fully closed.
CAUTION:
• This machine is not a toy. Keep away from children and pets.
• For indoor use only.
• Never insert fingers into the entry slot of the shredder.
• Turn the power off immediately if your hair, tie or sleeve becomes entangled in the shredder.
• The shredder bin must be fully pushed closed for the machine to operate.
• Empty the shredder bin when it is full otherwise the shredder’s performance will be adversely affected. Operating the
shredder with a full shredder bin can result in paper jamming in the cutters, which will increase the machine’s noise level.
• Do not force down shredder paper in the bin using your feet.

If the paper shredder will not start, please check the following:
1.
Is the machine plugged in correctly?
2.
Is the switch pushed to the ‘ON/AUTO’ position?
3.
Is the machine jammed with paper?
4.
Has the motor overheated?
5.
Is the shredder bin fully pushed in?
In case of jammed paper, please follow the procedure below:
1.
Check if the bin is too full with paper - the bin should be emptied regularly to avoid paper becoming jammed in the cutters.
2.
Slide the switch to the ‘REV’
(
)
position to reverse the jammed paper.
3.
If the paper is so jammed that it will not come out in reverse function, slowly push the switch between ‘REV’
(
)
and
ON/AUTO. Do not do this too quickly as this can damage the shredder.
4.
