Frequently Asked Questions - Home & Office A4 Basic GEHA

What is the difference between hot and cold lamination?

Hot lamination uses heat to bond the pouch to the document, ideal for most papers. Cold lamination uses pressure without heat, suitable for heat-sensitive documents like thermal photos. Use the switch to select the mode.

How to know when the device is ready for hot lamination?

After turning on hot mode (switch to HOT), the red light turns on. When the blue light turns on, the device has reached the required temperature, after about 3 to 5 minutes of preheating.

Can I laminate photos I developed myself?

It is not recommended to laminate home-developed photos as they may not be completely dry and may stick incorrectly. Make sure the photos are completely dry before laminating.

What to do if the document gets stuck in the machine?

Press the ABS release button located on the back of the device. Then gently and slowly pull the pouch backwards to remove it. If the problem persists, contact customer service.

What pouch thickness should I use?

This laminator is designed for pouches with a thickness between 80 and 100 micrometers. Using thicker or thinner pouches may result in poor lamination or jamming.

Can I laminate thick objects like coins?

No, this device is intended for flat documents with a maximum thickness of 0.6 mm. Never laminate coins or thick objects, as this could damage the machine.

How to clean the laminator?

Unplug the device and let it cool down completely. Clean the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Never use water, abrasive products or metal objects for cleaning.

Why does my laminated document look cloudy?

Some papers may appear cloudy after the first pass. You can run the document through the machine a second time (in hot mode) to improve clarity.

Can I use cold pouches in hot mode?

Yes, but it is recommended to use cold mode for cold pouches. If you use hot mode, switch the switch from HOT to COLD, then wait about 3 hours for the red light to turn off and the blue light to turn on.

What is the warranty period of this device?

The warranty is 24 months from the date of purchase. Keep the receipt and original packaging for any claim.
