IMPORTANT NOTES ON SAFETY

Please read the user manual carefully and in its entirety before commissioning the file shredder.

When using electric devices, always take basic precautions to eliminate any risk of injury. Always comply with the following basic precautions.

• This file shredder has been designed specifically for the shredding of paper and CDs. Never use it for any other purpose.

• Do not spray water on the device.
• Remove the mains power plug from the wall socket before emptying the waste paper container, when finished using the device, or if you wish to reposition it.
• Always pull on the plug and not on the power cable.

• Ensure that the correct voltage is used.

• Never use several extension cords.

• In case the device displays any unusual characteristics (e.g. strange smell or smoke), immediately stop operating the device and remove the mains power plug from the wall socket.

SETTING UP THE FILE SHREDDER

1. The centre of gravity is located in the top part of the device. Make sure to position the file shredder on an even surface to prevent it from toppling over.
2. Never operate the device near sources of heat or cold, or in an overheated, moist or dusty environment.
3. Place the device close to a wall socket and ensure easy access to the wall socket, in case the device needs to be deactivated.
4. Insert the inner waste receptacle (for CDs/DVDs) into the waste paper container first.
5. Make sure that the waste paper container is pushed all the way into the device.
6. Connect the mains power plug to a regular 220-240 V AC wall socket.

COMMISSIONING THE FILE SHREDDER

A. Feeding Paper into the Device

The device can shred a maximum of 7 sheets (A4, 70 g/m ^2 ) simultaneously. Switch on the file shredder by pressing the power button on the rear of the device. Two green LEDs, 'Power' and 'Status', light up.

The shredder automatically detects paper in the feeder and the device activates. If you have fed only a small amount of paper into the device (approx. 1-3 sheets A4, 70 g/m ^2 ), the shredder will operate in 'Economy' mode. The operating mode is displayed by the lit up green

LED 'Economy'. Once all paper has been shredded and no additional paper is fed into the machine, the device stops automatically (Standby Mode). The green LED 'Economy' is no longer lit.

If you have fed 4 - 7 sheets of paper (A4, 70g / m^2 ) into the device, the machine will consume more power and the LED 'Economy' will not light up.

An automatic reverse and stop function prevents a paper jam when the device is overloaded with too much paper in the feeder. Should a paper jam occur, remove all paper from the feeder and wait until the device has finished its automatic cleaning process and has stopped operating. Only insert a maximum of 7 sheets A4, 70 g/m ^2 into the feeder.

'FWD' If you place a narrow piece of paper (< 10 cm) into the feeder sideways, then the photoelectric barrier may not detect it and thus not start the device automatically. In that case, press and hold the button: 'FWD', until the paper has been drawn in completely.

'REV' By pressing the button: 'REV', you can initiate the reverse operation of the cutting mechanism in case of a paper jam.

When the sensor detects that the waste paper container is full, the device will stop automatically, and the viewing window in the waste paper container will be illuminated in blue. First remove all paper from the feeder, and then empty the waste paper container. Please note the instructions in the section: 'Maintenance'!

B. Feeding CDs/DVDs and Credit Cards into the Shredder

This device is equipped with a separate cutting mechanism for CDs/DVDs and credit cards. If you would like to utilise this function, proceed as follows:

1. Switch on the file shredder by pressing the power button on the rear of the device. Two green LEDs, 'Power' and 'Status', light up.

2. CDs/DVDs und credit cards are detected automatically in the CD slot, and the device activates.

CDs/DVDs are shredded into 10 mm wide strips. Make sure to keep your face well away from the feeder slot when shredding CDs/DVDs, since these types of material always pose a hazard of splintering!

The shredded material is collected in a separate waste receptacle to facilitate environmentally friendly disposal.

Important note:

The device will switch off automatically if the motor temperature increases too much. The LED 'Status' will light up red (overheating) and signals that the overheat protection of the device has been activated. If that is the case, the device will not react when you press the button 'REV' or 'FWD'. Once the motor has cooled down sufficiently, the device will switch back into normal operating mode, and the LED 'Status' will light up green.

MAINTENANCE

Important:

Pull the mains power plug from the wall socket before carrying out any maintenance tasks on the file shredder!

When the waste paper container is full, shredded material can be pushed upwards into the cutting mechanism. Make sure to empty the waste paper container before it is filled completely.

Clean the exterior of the file shredder with a moist cloth. Ensure that the cloth is kept well away from the paper feed. This cleaning step is suitable only for the exterior of the device.

The exterior of the device is made of plastic. That is why no solvents like benzene or benzole, or any organic solvents (e.g. thinner) may be used to clean the exterior of the device. Never clean the device with a stain remover - this may cause the casing to fade, crack, dissolve or graze.

Caution:

Make sure that no water gets into the device while cleaning the casing.
