Safety
Cleaning
− Avoid overloading the motor by not putting more than
6 sheets of paper (80 g/m²) into the feed slot at the same time.
− Do not shred formats larger than A4 or continuous paper.
− Unplug the device if the motor cuts out because of over-
loading. Ensure that the slide switch is at
OFF
. Leave the
motor to cool for about 30 minutes to room temperature,
before you plug the shredder back in. You can then continue
with operations.
− Remove paper clips, staples and similar fixings before you
start shredding.
Short-term operation:
• The shredder is suitable only for short-term operation and not for
continuous use. After continuous operation of a maximum of
1 minute, let the shredder rest for 30 minutes, to prevent overheating
of the device.
• The shredder motor switches off automatically if it overheats.
Placing on the paper bin
The paper shredder comes with a paper bin
7
. Place the paper shredder directly on
the paper bin and ensure that the paper shredder is seated firmly on it (see
fig A
).
Using the AUTO setting
You can shred your paper with the Auto setting.
1. Place the slide switch
5
at the
AUTO
position. The LED ready indicator
6
turns green and the paper shredder is ready for use.
2. Feed the paper through the paper feed slot
2
into the paper shredder.
Make sure that you feed the paper straight and centred.
If the slide switch is at
AUTO
, the paper shredder switches off automatically as
soon as the paper has been shredded.
3. Place the slide switch at
OFF
if you no longer need the paper shredder.
The LED ready indicator turns off.
4. Disconnect the power plug
1
and empty the paper bin.
There is a paper sensor
3
in the centre of the paper feed slot
2
. It
detects the inserted paper and activates the cutting blades in the paper
shredder. For this reason, always feed small sheets of paper into the
centre of the slot.
Using the REV setting
Use the
REV
setting to put the cutting blades into reverse operating direction.
1. Move the slide switch
5
to the
REV
position.
The cutting blades run in reverse and move the fed paper back out of the shredder.
2. Take the paper out of the shredder in order to continue with the shredding
process (see “paper jam” in the fault table).
Cleaning
NOTICE!
Risk of short circuit!
Water that has penetrated the housing may cause a short circuit.
− Disconnect the power plug before cleaning.
− Never submerge the paper shredder in water.
− Make sure that no water penetrates the housing.
NOTICE!
Risk of damage!
Improper handling of the paper shredder may result in
damage to the paper shredder.
− Do not use any aggressive cleaners, brushes with metal or
nylon bristles, sharp or metallic cleaning utensils such as
knives, metal sponges and the like. They could damage
the surfaces.
− Use a damp cloth to wipe off the paper shredder. Let all parts dry completely
afterwards.
