Operation

Remove shredder from packaging and place shredder head on top of the bin.
Connect shredder to an appropriate mains supply. Ensure the on/off switch is in the On position. The blue shredder in operation icon will flash every 3 seconds.
To commence shredding press and release the button. The flashing icon changes to a solid blue light. You are now able to shred.
Insert paper to be shredded into the feed slot ‘e’. While paper is being shredded the blue shredder in operation icon will remain illuminated.
Note: Make sure the paper to be inserted is neatly stacked. If the paper thickness is within the shredder’s capacity, the motor will start and your documents will be shredded. The cutters will stop once the shredding process is complete.
If the paper thickness is greater than the shredder’s capacity the auto reverse icon will flash red and the motor will run in reverse.
If this happens, remove some of the sheets from the paper stack and re-try. The shredder will automatically start and allow the paper to be shredded.
If the shredder is left in shredder operational mode for more than 15 minutes without being used the shredder will automatically switch off in order to save power.
Warning: Do NOT under any circumstances use any metal objects (scissors, letter openers, etc.) in an attempt to clear the entry.

Rare occasions of jamming
Should the paper jam not clear, press and hold the button for 2 seconds, then press and hold the button for 2 seconds. Repeat until the jam has cleared. Please do not alternate between the Reverse and Forward functions quickly as this may damage the motor.

Reverse function

Should you wish to reverse the shredding direction whilst shredding a document a reverse function has been fitted for your convenience.
By pressing and holding the reverse button the cutters will change direction allowing the retrieval of the document being shredded.
The reverse function will only run whilst is being pressed. When the reverse button has been released the shredder will revert to ready mode.

Operation time
When the shredder is used continuously for 6 minutes or more the shredder may overheat. If this occurs the overheat icon will illuminate red. When the shredder is ready to be used again the red overheat icon will go out. This will take approx. 60 minutes. To resume shredding, press the On button and start feeding documents into the feed slot.

Troubleshooting

If the paper shredder will not start, please check the following:

Is the machine jammed with paper?
Has the motor overheated?

WARNING
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.
