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
We recommend you remove staples and paperclips from
paper before shredding and avoid laminated documents,
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 reverse
(
)
function if it’s not necessary.
Over use of the reverse (
)
function can result in
shredded paper becoming jammed in the entry slot, which
will adversely affect the performance of the shredder.
Correct operating procedure
1
Insert plug into the AC power socket.
2
