Positioning and Starting Up

The shredder only operates when the waste bin is correctly fitted. Ensure the device is placed on a stable, level surface near an easily accessible power socket, maintaining at least 10 cm distance from walls for proper cooling.

1. Slide the waste bin into the device until it latches audibly.
2. Connect the power cable to the device and then to a power socket.
3. Press the On/Off button to switch the device on. The status indicator will light up blue.

Operating the Shredder

The shredder features an automatic shredding mechanism. Simply feed the material into the center of the insertion slot. If the sensors do not detect the material, you can press and hold the FWD button for manual operation. To switch off, press the On/Off button.

Maintenance and Cleaning

To extend the life of your shredder, oil the cutting mechanism regularly using special oil or oiled sheets. Empty the waste bin when the "Bin full" status LED flashes red. Clean the housing surface with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth; do not use aerosols, solvents, or cleaning agents.

Troubleshooting

• Overheating: The shredder switches off automatically. Wait for the cool-down phase (see Technical Data) until the status indicator turns blue.
• Overload: If too much material is inserted, the status indicator flashes red and the shredder runs in reverse for 5 seconds. Pull the material out to clear the blockage.
• Sleep Mode: If not used for 30 minutes, the device enters sleep mode. Feed material or press FWD/REV to wake it up.
