Auto Power Off Reverse Paper Entry Bin Window Overheat1. Place the shredder on a flat, level surface.

2. Plug the power cable into the wall power outlet.

3. Place the switch in the “AUTO” position.

The switch has three settings: a) When set to “AUTO”, the shredder will automatically begin shredding when paper is inserted into the feed opening. The shredder will stop automatically once the paper is fully inserted. b) The “REV” mode is used to assist in the removal of a possible paper jam. The unit will reverse the shredding process to help clear the jam and clear the paper cutter. c) The “OFF” position should be selected when emptying the wastebasket or when the shredder is not in use for a prolonged period of time.

PRODUCT OPERATION NOTE: This unit shreds 10 sheets at a time. When shredding small items such as envelopes or credit card receipts, please insert them through the middle of the feed opening. NOTE: The Overheat LED light will turn on if continuous shredding is longer than 2 minutes. The unit will stop shredding as a safety precaution to prevent overheating of the shredder motor. You can continue shredding once the Overheat LED light turns off (40 minutes).Symptom Solutions The machine has turned off

• Operating the shredder at the maximum capacity continuously for a prolonged period of time (more than 2 minutes without stopping) results in the activation of the automatic motor overload protection.

• Unplug the power cord from the AC outlet and wait at least 40 minutes for the overload protection to reset. Tear or cut off any excess paper from the top of the shredder.

• Plug the power cord back into the electrical outlet and place the switch in the “REV” position. Pull the remaining paper out of the cutters.

• Return the setting to “AUTO”. The shredder is now ready to resume shredding. Jammed machine

• Jams may occur if there is an overload of paper (more than 10 sheets at once) or if the paper is not fed squarely into the feed opening.

• To fix this, change the switch to the “REV” position. Pull the jammed papers out.

• Put the switch to the “AUTO” position. The shredder is now ready to resume shredding. NOTE: For all replacements and repairs that need to be made, contact Royal Sovereign Customer Service at +1) 800-397-1025
