Operating the Shredder
The shredder works using an automatic shredding mechanism. The sensor for automatic inser-
tion of material is positioned in the centre of the slot.
Caution
! Risk of injury through sharp edge of cutting mechanism. NEVER take
hold of the shredder attachment by the underside when the shredder is in opera-
tion.
1
Set the switch to its
Auto
position. The shredder is now ready to operate.
Warning
! Risk of injury through automatic insertion. Infeed starts automatically
when material is inserted. Keep all loose pieces of clothing, jewellery, long hair or
other loose items away from the shredder's insertion slot.
Attention
! Risk of property damage through material jam! Observe the maximum
cutting capacity of the insertion slot.
2
Feed the material to be shredded in the centre of the insertion slot. The material is drawn
into the insertion slot, stops about 2 - 4 seconds after shredding has been completed and no
further material is fed in.

If you want to shred a credit card, insert the credit card in the centre of the slot with a short
edge to the front.
Switching the Shredder Off

ently injuring themselves with the shredder.
