Important safety instructions

Warning: Carefully read this user guide before using the paper shredder.

Warnings

Keep your fingers away from the feed slot, or they could be seriously injured.

Never run the shredder continuously for more than 3 minutes or for more than 50 sheets, or the motor may overheat and temporarily turn off the power (to allow the shredder to cool down). If this happens, move the switch to the off position for 30 minutes (at 86°F or 30°C) before trying again.

Keep the shredder out of reach of children and pets.

Keep jewelry, long hair, and loose clothing (especially sleeves and neckties) away from the feed slot. If anything unintentionally gets caught in the feed slot, immediately cut off power.

Crosscut shredders have very sharp, exposed blades on the underside, so be careful when mounting the shredder on the waste basket.

Fire danger: Never dispose of flammable chemicals (for example, nail polish, acetone, or gasoline) or materials that have come into contact with flammable chemicals (such as cleaning rags) in the waste basket.

Always turn off the shredder and unplug the power cord before cleaning or moving the shredder, or emptying the waste basket.

Never place the shredder near water, moisture, or any heat source.

Keep the waste basket emptied so that the shredder output is not blocked.

Never use any petroleum-based or flammable oils or lubricants in or around the shredder, because these substances can combust, causing serious injury. Never spray any aerosol-based products in or around the shredder.

Never shred envelopes, labels, or anything with glue or sticky substances, or paper jams can result.

Do not use the shredder if the power cord is damaged in any way.

Do not try to service this product yourself. Doing so may expose you to sharp cutting blades and electrical shock, and will void the manufacturer’s warranty.

Never let the waste basket become full, or the shredder output will be blocked, and material will be pulled back up into the shredder, causing jams.

Never shred wet paper.

Never try to clean or clear the shredder blades.

Use the REV mode sparingly, because overuse may cause shreds of paper to build up in the feed slot and reduce shredding performance.

1Mount the shredder securely to the rim of the waste basket.

2Connect the power cord to any standard 120V AC power outlet.

Using the shredder

Shredding paper

To shred paper:

1Move the switch to On/Auto.

2Insert paper into the center of the paper feed slot, or insert a credit card into the center of the card feed slot. The shredder will automatically shred the item.

Note: Small papers should be inserted into the center of the paper feed slot, or the shredder cannot detect that the paper is inserted.

After the shredding is complete, the shredder will stop automatically.

Important: To guarantee normal operation, shred a maximum of 7 sheets of paper (or one credit card) at a time.
