Intended usage This equipment is intended exclusively for shredding or destroying paper, CDs/DVDs, and credit cards. Any other type of use is deemed to be inappropriate, and thus may result in any extended warranty becoming invalid, and may jeopardise your own safety.12 Safety information Caution: Please read this manual before you start using the equipment, and keep hold of it for future reference. Please keep any long and/or flat objects, e.g. clothing (scarves, ties etc.) and any jewellery (necklaces, bracelets etc.) and any long hair away from the in feed area. Switch off the equipment when not in use for a sustained period of time. Do not put your hands or fingers in the in feed area as this may cause serious injury. The continuous operation for destroying paper, CDs/DVDs, and credit cards should not exceed the length of time specified for each model. You should generally avoid bringing the equipment into contact with liquids, aerosol flammable liquids or gases as they can easily ignite. Switch off the equipment, or unplug it before you move, empty, or clean the machine. Switch off the equipment if it is damaged or is not functioning properly, and unplug the power cable. The equipment should be checked by a dealer, or by the customer service team. If you experience technical problems, do not open the shredding unit under any circumstances. You must contact the service address listed at the end of this manual at all times. The equipment must not be operated with a damaged power cable. Empty the collection unit on a regular basis. Never leave the shredder unattended, especially if children or pets are nearby. This equipment is not a toy. Keep children and pets out of reach. This equipment is only suitable for indoor use. In an emergency, you must not place the equipment close to an easily accessible power supply, and must not use an extension cable. This machine has been designed for shredding paper up to A4 size (80g/m²). Larger pieces of paper must be folded or crushed to the equivalent of A4 size. Please pay attention to the maximum number of sheets per operation to avoid overloading. Please do not allow any plastic or metal foil to be shredded, as these types of material can damage the blades. You must never shred paper and CDs/credit cards simultaneously!

Installation and operation Place the equipment on a flat and even surface. Make sure that the equipment is placed away from any radiators or hot areas. Do not cover the cooling vent at the rear of the equipment. Avoid the use of extension cables and multiple power sockets if possible, and connect the equipment directly to a wall socket (as specified in the section on technical information). Please keep the equipment at a distance of at least 10 cm away from the wall in order to ensure the cooling vent has an adequate supply of air.14 Operation: Switch on the power button at the rear of the machine ("ON"). The "Standby" symbol lights up. The equipment is now ready to use. Should the symbol not light up, then please refer to the section "General Troubleshooting" on page 17 of this manual. Shredding paper and credit cards Place the paper in portrait orientation into the corresponding in feed unit. The paper will be recognised by the sensors, and the cutter will begin to feed the paper through automatically. After finishing shredding, you can press the button to switch from operation mode to standby and have minimal power consumption. Please insert credit cards in portrait orientation into the middle of the feed unit. Please press the button again to switch back from standby to operational mode. Please be aware of the maximum number of sheets of paper. Further information can be found on the device, or in the table below entitled "Product Specification". Overloading: If you overload more paper in one go than the machine is able to handle, the overloading display will turn to red, and the cutter will stop immediately. Should this happen, then please reduce the number of sheets and try again. Should this particular fault not be rectified automatically, then press the up arrow in order to remove any paper. The machine will then be reset to either normal or standby mode. Shredding CDs/DVDs/credit cards Insert CDs/DVDs/credit cards one by one into the designated in feed slot. Do not hold onto the holes in the middle of the CD/DVD, as this could result in injury! Manual in feed: If a sheet of paper is too thin or too transparent for it to be recognised by the sensors, then please press the "forward" button . You can also use the forward and backward buttons to allow any excess sheets of paper to be shred. Overheating: It is possible that the engine may overheat if you exceed the maximum amount of time specified for continuous operation. This is when the cutter will stop and the overheating light will turn red. The machine will then start to cool down whilst in standby mode, and can be used again when the light stops flashing. Removing excess paper: Switch off the equipment, and disconnect the power supply. Remover the paper tray. Remove any snippets of paper which have become stuck to the cutter. The blades are very sharp, so please do take extra care! Put the paper tray back into position, connect the power cable, and switch on the power. You can15 now use the machine once again. Disconnecting: Turn off the rear main switch for the equipment to become fully disconnected.

Equipment maintenance and cleaning As the cutter blades are very sharp and the engine is particularly powerful, you should take the appropriate precautions when using the equipment on a daily basis to ensure that any items of clothing, ties, scarves and hair do not fall into the equipment!18 The collection unit must be regularly checked and emptied if possible to ensure it is able to operate smoothly. Do not allow any items of clothing, plastic, or metal fragments to fall into the cutter. It is advised to use a number of sheets of paper below the technical capacity in order to achieve a long life expectancy. Please regularly check the collection container and empty it if necessary to ensure smooth operation. Wear or damage to the shredder can decrease the reliability of the data destruction, so please check from time to time, the size of the material particles. For a permanently quiet and smooth operation, we recommend the use of a Bonsaii care kit approximately after every 500 sheets. Run the (Cleaning Kit) through the shredder. The shredder will as such be uniformly cleaned and oiled. The care kit is available from specialist retailers or by contacting the Bonsaii service hotline. You must disconnect the plug first when cleaning the equipment. It must then be cleaned on the outside by using a cloth and mild soap solution. The cloth should only be damp and not wet. Avoid any liquids from penetrating into the cutter. Do not use bleach, alcohol, paint stripper, or any other flammable liquids under any circumstances.
