Operation

1. Unpack the product.
2. Connect the shredder to a power outlet with voltage
   corresponding to the electrical rating shown on the unit.
3. Ensure the ON/OFF button on the back of the machine is in the ON position, which will illuminate the blue standby symbol ▶.
4. To load the shredder, simply lift the loading door handle to open the loading door and insert documents. You can open the door further to 90 degrees for easier access if required. Load up to MAX sheets at a time into the feed chamber. Do not fill above the MAX level, this could damage the shredder.
5. The shredder will start the shredding cycle automatically ONLY after closing the loading door. If there is still paper in the AutoFeed chamber after first attempt, open and re-close the paper loading door a second time.
   Attention: If required you can now lock the loading door by entering a 4 digit code (see Locking the Paper Loading Door section).
6. If you only have a few sheets to shred, you can use the manual feed slot, provided the auto feed chamber is empty.
7. Insert paper to be shredded into the feed area. The shredder will detect the paper and start automatically.
8. If the shredder is left in auto mode for more than 2 minutes without being used, the shredder will automatically turn back to sleep mode in order to save power.
9. The shredder will automatically 'wake up' from sleep mode when paper is inserted into the shred mouth or you open the losing door. There is no need to press the Auto button 🔒.

Auto Feed Technology

The AutoFeed+ shredders have been designed to automatically shred up to 750 sheets from the auto-feed chamber and up to 20 sheets through the manual feed slot. The auto-feed mechanism has been designed to handle paper fastened with staples and paper clips and to only pull a few sheets of paper into the cutting mechanism to minimise the risk of paper jams. See specifications tables for the capacity details on your model.

Locking the Paper Loading Door

For additional security the paper loading door can be locked during the shredding of confidential material. To lock shredder:

1. Place documents in tray. Close paper loading door.
2. Press any 4 digits. REMEMBER YOUR CODE! Shredder unlocks automatically when:
   • 4 digit code is re-entered.
3. Shredding is complete.
4. Shredder is inactive for 30 minutes (but documents remain in tray)

Bin Full

The shredder will not function when the bin is full and the bin full symbol 📁 is illuminated.

You should empty the bin.
• Pull open the bin slowly to empty.
- Push the empty bin back into place and press the auto button to resume shredding.

Over Heating

If the AutoFeed+ shredder is used continuously without pausing, it may overheat and the cool down indicator will flash red. Please allow the shredder to cool down. When the shredder is ready to be used the thermometer symbol will no longer illuminate. If the shredder needs to cool down while shredding, no action is needed. The shredder will automatically restart shredding paper once it has cooled down after periods of continuous use. All you need to do is ensure paper is loaded into the chamber and the bin is empty when the machine is cooling down.

We recommend these machines are serviced every 6 to 12 months by a GBC service engineer – see www.gbc.com/support for enquiries about maintenance contracts.

Lubrication of the Shredder Maintenance

GBC recommends using an oil sheet after the bin has been. The rollers on the auto-feed mechanism may become dirty emptied three times (and every three bin emptying after this). over time, please wipe clean with a dry cloth to maintain insert the oil sheet into the manual feed slot and NOT in maximum product performance.

the auto-feed chamber. Using an oil sheet in the auto-feed chamber will contaminate the feed rollers preventing the auto-feed mechanism shredding. Follow the maintenance instructions if the rollers become contaminated.

The auto-start infrared sensor, located in the paper feed entry-slot, can occasionally become covered in paper-dust causing the shredder to run despite no paper being fed into the machine. Switch the shredder off at the rear of the machine and carefully clean the sensor using a cotton-swab.
