For convenience and energy savings, your shredder is equipped with an automatic-start sensor (K). This means that when the control switch (E) is in the automatic [I] position, the shredder will start running when paper is fed into it. The shredder stops a few seconds after the paper has passed through.

CAUTION: The automatic-start sensor cannot tell the difference between paper and other objects. This feature can also be a hazard. Always turn off the shredder when it is not in use. Unplug the shredder if it will not be used for an extended period.

To shred

•Press control switch (E) to automatic [I] position. Green ready light (F) should turn on.

PAPER

•Feed paper straight into entry (C), releasing when shredder begins shredding; see Product Profile for limits on paper width, shreddable items, sheet capacity, etc.

•Shred no more than 25 minutes; shredding longer will cause shredder to turn itself off for 40 minutes to cool down.

•Press control switch to off [O] position after cutting has stopped.
