OPERATION Continued :
Your Aurora paper shredder features a sliding face plate with individual feed slots for paper or credit cards
and in some models CDs/DVDs. Before using, be sure to slide the face plate forwards or back
so that the arrow lines up with the appropriate icon. Failure to do so can lead to jams
and misfeeds.

- RISK OF FIRE. NEVER dispose of flammable chemicals or materials that have come into contact with
flammable chemicals (for example, nail polish, acetone, gasoline) in the shredder basket. Never use any

- Always turn the shredder off and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet before cleaning it,
moving it, or emptying the waste basket.
- Never place the shredder near water or any heat source.
- Keep wastebasket emptied so that the shredder output is not impeded.

TROUBLE SHOOTING FOR AURORA PAPER SHREDDERS :
The shredder does not work at all.
a) Make sure the shredder is plugged into an outlet which is in good working order.
b) Shredders with pull-out wastebaskets features a safety power cut off upon bin removal.
Make sure the pull-out wastebasket is properly set back into place.
c) In the event that the shredder is run continuously for too long and the motor overheats, a thermal
overload switch will automatically shut the power off. If this happens, move the switch to the off
position for 20 minutes or more before continuing.
The shredder only runs in "Rev" and "Fw" mode.
a) The shredder will not start running until paper, CD/DVD, or credit card is inserted into the appropriate
feed slot. It is normal for the motor to run for a moment after the shredder is powered on but it should
stop until paper is inserted. The trigger that activates the shredder is located directly in the center of
the feed slot. If the paper you are inserting is narrow, it may not be hitting the switch. It is possible
that the trigger, which activates the shredder, has become blocked with paper. Insert an index card,
directly in the center of the feed slot, and apply force. This will usually clear any paper blocking the
switch and force the switch closed.
MAINTENANCE :
We recommend you oil your shredder once a month with vegetable or cooking oil (nothing petroleum
based). Drizzle some oil on a few pieces of paper and feed those pages through the shredder. Do not
spray or keep any aersol products in or around shredder
